Iceland was great at hockey? Did I miss that memo?
And actually... the money isn't called the loon.
We have a one dollar coin called a loonie (marked with a picture of a loon). This was brought into circulation in 1986 to replace the paper ones.
A two dollar coin also followed a couple years later - we call it a toonie. It is sometimes referred to as a Polar in Quebec (perhaps to reference the polar bear gracing the coin).
And, I can't speak for Dave, but I wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the world.

yeah....mighty ducks didn't mean a damn thing though. think about it. they played trinidad and tobego. iceland. maybe italy. all countries that don't know a damn thing about hockey most likely. notice the absence of canada, and just about all of the half decent countries in europe.

I just like how you can flip the puck up then hit it in NHL 2006, and have you played both?

and swiggs, before you ask me the same question, yes, i played both. 2k6 made 2006 look like ass. the gameplay in 2006 is roughly that of NHL Hitz, minus some of the excessive violence during checking and fighting. 120 mph slapshots by every guy in the league? 100 mph slapshots when you just about fan on the puck? Every player in the league being capable of flipping the puck in the air, swatting it like a baseball over the goalie's shoulder? Being able to not only hit, but completely take a guy out of the play every time you go for a hit? not to mention about 95% of the dekes in that game. Its so horribly unrealistic, its pitiful. They cut the dynasty mode down to 10 years, which is trash. 2k6 destroys 2006 on the realism and the depth of gameplay. I played 2k6 on my ps2, 2006 on a friend's xbox (although, my brother has 2006 on ps2, and i could play it later if i so desire), and the graphics were actually not that far off, when they would be when comparing an xbox game to ps2. 2006 is a step down from 2005, which is pretty sad, as that was a step down from 2004. EA has just been falling off big time in terms of their hockey games. |
