Yea the one timers that you could do in the old games are different now.. I don't use the standard controllers.. i switch them so that like Square is a wrister.. Circle is a slapper.. the only way you can do a one time is to actually time it up with the back swing of a slap shot using the Right analog stick.

The HSers from Canada that do nothing but that game all summer.. .yea I know them...

In my whole time of NHL 12.. I think I have played like 50 games.. . there are people on there with like 5000 games played..

if you have PS3 IM me your name.

Its the same way with college football. There are people with way too much tiem on their hands. But I guess 10 years ago I would have done the same.

Vanek didn't ask for his compensation, he accepted it.

Who cares about Stastnys numbers he isn't coming here, nor has he had a significant impact on the Sabres.

Vaneks career mirrors such players as Gaborik, Perry, Getzlaf, Semin, Staal, Carter.....Not too bad. OF course most of those guys have a Cup. So maybe Vaneks team has been holding him back.

Semin maybe... WOW

there are some games that I don't even play online.. any 1st person shooter game.. besides zombie mode... I don't even play online...

It is just a crap shoot of people that play those games 24/7 and know all of the sneaky/sly/cheating ways of it...

plus being called a noob, d0uche bag, and f@ggot by 13 year olds is not considered time well spent.

nor is decoding mesage sh1t that looks like this "1 3Afl2l 23Rkjadal Rjl32jafd"

once again we are completely on the same page. NOthing like shooting someone in the head 5 times not killing them one shot and your dead.

Love being called a noob, my usual responce is if you use the word noob you need to get a life.

Vanek hasn't been a top scorer in this league since he was a third liner with Roy going against another teams worst D-corps..

his even strength production is average at best...

I'm sorry man... its just the way it is.. I think matching that offer sheet might be one of the worst choices in Buffalo history...

Darcy was worried because everyone was leaving and that ticket sales would go down and perhaps the bankruptcy thing would take over...

sh1t man.. 8 1st round picks in 4 years... that maybe 6 of them would have been top 10 picks between Buffalo and EDM's poor seasons.

ive never been one to be big on sabremetrics which I should look into for other purposes. But do you have facts on how they are comparable? In your theory Pat Kaleta and Wayne Simmons are the same cause they have similar pms

Just look at their stats on any reputable sports website. Very Similar in offensive production. Goals, Assist..even +/-

All I am saying is that 1 bad year and now Vanek is all of a sudden pedestrian.

Gaborik only scored 22 goals / 26 Assists 2 years ago, why doesn't he get the same rap?

I love that people are willing to throw Vanek away yet praise others for being just as productive.

How are those 1st rounders working out for the oilers?

Would you trade Vanek for Hall, RNH, Eberle, and Omark?

if the answer is anything but yes....

Cocaines a helluva drug!

for whatever reason.. I have never been good at scoring a lot of goals online... my games always seem to be just like regular Sabres games.. 1-0... 2-1.. 2-0 type games... In seasons or against people I can get 6 or 7 goals easily...

I wonder if it has to do with that I put the shot aim as Automatic.. but online I think it is set at Manual and you can't change it..

I NEVER aim the puck.. i just take my shots.. it could be a wide open net from a cross the crease pass and sometimes my guy will shoot it right at the body of the goalie on the other side of the crease.

How are those guys working out for the Oilers? Maybe they will win 35 games this year with those guys.

If Vanek had been on their team post 2007, the Oiler's position in the standings could have changed dramatically. we might have gotten 4 low 1st round picks. The likelihood of getting hall, RNH, etc would have been slim to none. Guess you should have been born in a different time line where Vanek had been taken from the sabres; you'd have been happier. Whether you like it or not, Vanek was signed. We didn't get picks. that's life.

Vanek is FAR from the problem with the Sabres team/franchise, Stafford should just be traded, probably better for the Sabres and him, always going to be a good year for Stafford and then he never plays STRONG like he should
