Rigafan8 got a reaction from Chris in Any new NFL manager games?
Front Office Football is the king of Football sims (in my eyes) Have you seen they are now working with OOTP to release a new version?

Rigafan8 got a reaction from Chris in New title idea
I doubt SI Games would ever take on that task. You'd be better for some small developer to give it a go and see if it was popular enough.

Rigafan8 got a reaction from Chris in Best strategy for sports management games? (Open Discussion)
I much prefer to play as GM only. I'm not so great with tactics and training so I like to control the finances and recruiting and let my coaches do what I pay them for!

Rigafan8 reacted to Clacquam in NHL versus AHL prime differences
I went to a half a dozen Lake Erie Monsters games and a few Ohio State games last year during the lockout, and saw some pretty damn good hockey on a different level to get my fix. I meant to bring up before what I felt are the biggest differences between the AHL and the NHL from what I have seen.
The two biggest are, by far:
Rebound control: goalies are from what I have seen big, quick, near nhl caliber but the biggest difference between the NHL and AHL is the use of the catching glove. An NHL goalie can control the tempo of the game, slow it down by forcing faceoffs, catching the puck to allow his team to get tired players off the ice, ect.. while this happens in the AHL it is no where near as common. Ahl goalies are competent and I saw some amazing saves but they did not seem able to control the tempo of the game.
Less crisp passing is the number two thing. The players can shoot amazingly well but the passing is horrible. Dump and chase and pushing the puck in along the boards seems to be the prevalent way to move the puck into the zone.
Speed is near the same, hard to tell a discernible difference, defense seems to be the same or close to it shooting is not bad. It really is the subtle things, passing and puck control that I noticed as being where the AHL is deficient.
