Stop picking the Pens, Wings and Blackhawks!

I'm so sick of EVERY person I join a game with shooting right to the Pens, Wings or Hawks. I'm sick of it. Why can't people pick a decent team that doesn't have Crosby, Ovechkin or the Blackhawks? I just don't get it. Sure, they're fun to be. But it isn't a challenge and it's especially lame when I pick a team like the Blue Jackets or something, and they still pick a top team.

Granted, if these people are legit fans of these teams, it's cool, but I know I'm not facing fans of them EVERY time I play online.

And oh ya, stop exploiting the powerful wristers after wrapping around the net. This game is so amazingly frustrating to play. Combine that with people NEVER getting penalties for interference, or never getting penalties for stick lifting every 2 seconds. Yet I try it once, from a legit position, and I get a game misconduct. Annoying as hell.

And I don't care about my DNF, as soon as someone does an exploit chance on me, even if they don't score, I'm quitting. I refuse to have a video game experience where my opponent is knowingly exploiting, and CONSTANTLY continuing to ONLY try to score that one way.

Do you pick Boston? That is a pretty skilled team too.

I rarely pick the Bruins. Maybe once every 20 games or so. Probably less.

It's just too predictable though. As soon as I click ranked match, bam, there's some kid rushing to pick a top 5 team. It's annoying.

I see, I guess people want to win online. Maybe you should play with friends.

Well, I'm from Chicago, and I've always been the Hawks - from the Roenick days, to the Amonte days, to the Arnason/Bell/Calder days, to the Toews and Kane days. I will continue to be the Hawks...every time

meh...I always pick Phoenix. Don't know why I've never even been there or watched one of their games, but I picked them in Be A GM and just continue to stick with them. However, if someone picks a great team why not just pick the other great team? Then crush them and call it a day.

I love using hawks in multi player games- But I understand the boringness of seeing the other 2
