Should i get this or wait for 12? My last was nhl game was 09.

[SJSharksfan24]

@jvaferreira93 NHL 11 is an awesome game. However, I think you might as well wait for NHL 12 since NHL 12 is coming on Sept 9 in EU and Sept 12 in North America (2 months).

I <3 Niemi!!!



[ithinkimonfire]

did they add white, wellwood, or eager?

like are there roster updates or something?

[SJSharksfan24]

@ithinkimonfire Yes, they added them in roster updates. Ian White stabilizes the Sharks D while Ben Eager is a BEAST. I like the roster moves by the Sharkies.

Is couture as sick in this game as he is in real life?

[SJSharksfan24]

@myxomatosized No, his player rating in NHL 11 deserves to be much higher than what it actually is. I initially had to put him on the 3rd line & 4th line but once EA released roster updates, he became usable on the 2nd line. Hopefully he'll have a better rating in NHL12 because he is the Sharks MVP in the 2010-11 regular season.

Is evgeni nabokov on this game?

[SJSharksfan24]

@bryz2034 Yes Nabby is in NHL 11 on Team Russia (National).

[bryz2034]

@SJSharksfan24 Thanks hes my favourite goalie! Ill subscribe

[hsojv]

i was hoping after last season they'd actually make the player look like Joe Pavelski. Come on, he was in the Olympics!

[Mr95knightRider]

nice had the same horn and cheer at the goal

[James51195]

go sharks! Lil Joe for Captain!

[James51195]

sharks have a better team this year (2010-2011) than last years, IMO. niemi will carry us (sharkies) and i cant wait til the season starts!

[rya771]

you got a little lucky at the end of the second period haha but your a pretty good player haha im terrible haha

and i love the sharks too :D haha go sharks

[SJSharksfan24]

@rya771 Thanks. yeah I got saved by the bell at 2:26. Probably should have moved Wallin or Boyle sooner to cut off the passing lane instead of using Thornton to chase the puck in the corner. Who knows how the 3rd period would have gone if it was tied 2-2.

Nevertheless, its a good learning experience. Killing off that 5 minute penalty in the 2nd was tough but rewarding.

[molotovfixation2525]

was niemi already on the sharks when you got the game or was there a roster update?GO SHARKS BTW!!

[SJSharksfan24]

@molotovfixation2525 No, Niemi was not on the Sharks roster when I got the game at release date (9/7). I had to manually add him onto the roster but eventually he'll be included in a roster update.

I hope the Sharks win the cup in 2011 so they can piss off NBC and all the hockey media people who hated the Sharks or acted biased against the Sharks during their playoff run in 2010. It irritates me that they want to see the Sharks fail.

[sjboss]

no hp pavilion?!?!?!

[SJSharksfan24]

@sjboss Unfortunately, EA did not name the home arena of the San Jose Sharks: HP Pavilion. It's lame I know.
