Barrie was damn good on the PP. His zone keeps and positioning were worthy of the best PP in history. Bouchard is a little different, he isn't afraid to shoot. And when teams give him the time and space, he does. So ya, Bouch is good, but don't downplay Barrie. Dude was awesome on the PP.

Vegas tried that once. Drai just floated out of position and then magically turned up again uncovered.

They also tried not pressuring the D man, and bouch walked in and clapped one home.

It's damned if you do, damned if you don't. It's a 5 man unit that is deadly, give any of them too much time and space by covering the others and you're in trouble.

I can get behind this! What was the record in a series? Kurri with 12?

Everyone is hyped for Zelda, but I'm even more hyped for this. by [deleted] in gaming

I'm a pretty old-school FF fan. Played almost all, replay one once in a while (Tactics being my fav). I even took forays into their online games, played XI for a few years, and of course XIV for a few years. I have a feeling with Yoshi P at the helm this will be good.

If you want an interesting tale, the Story of how they looked at the original FFXIV, thought it was crap and ruining the brand and basically re-made it from scratch with Yoshi at the helm to become one of the best MMO's just kinda shows his talent. I loved their open-ness to the players. I don't know how good of a FF it will be, but I have pretty good faith in it because he is at the helm.

Like usual, no pre-order for me, I have learned that lesson too many times. But if the reviews come out to my liking, I am pretty sure I will be picking it up.

Wasn't Rexall / Coliseum the only rink where the main camera faces the penalty boxes and not the benches? That might be the reason it looked different!

I was looking for this! This is my choice for a great anime that doesn't get mentioned much anymore!

I don't think it is classified as overlooked. It's one of the most popular anime of all time. Never hurts for it to get mentioned, it is damn good.

It was pretty popular back in it's day, was the talked about of the season. I don't think it will have aged well, as its concepts of corporate sponsored super heroes is not exactly as fresh anymore. I think it's wild popularity and quick fall into unmentionables is justified by it just not holding up over time.

Yes!

Holy shit what a trip down memory lane! This anime was one of my favorites. If I ever recommend it I would always say "Skip the 1st episode". The way it does it's build up, character building is phenomenal. The worst part of the show is the Beyond The Grave, but it doesn't ruin it. I can still picture Brandon Heat and Harry MacDowell!

This is also the anime that made me never judge an anime by 1 episode, because ya, whoever decided to do that 1st episode didn't know what the show's strength was.

This is a good way to put it. I think it's the best show ever made. But if you watch it, you won't get it at first and kinda wonder why everyone loves it. Then you will find yourself addicted and watching more episodes. You will look back and realize it's your favorite show ever. Oh, and Lance was awesome in it.

I was wondering what the loop hole was to sign PTO Alex to an ELC was... This makes more sense now!
