And there's seriously a Toronto clause?

It's the Harold Ballard Rule.... section 4-3 rule 67

43 and 67, very clever.....

The Leafs did have Stanley's Cup in the dressing room after 1967, I do believe Allan Stanley retired in 1969 from the Leafs.

Rumor has it there is a Toronto clause. Check the standings page and there will be an x-Toronto and it explains at the bottom of the page x-automatically eliminated from playoffs. This feature pops up after the first regular season game. If it has xx-Toronto and it explains at the bottom of the page xx-don't plan on Maple Leaf Stanley Cup Victory Parade-It ain't happening any time soon !!!

It's now known as the MLSE rule. It also applies to any other professional sports club owned by MLSE (e.g. Toronto FC).

Excellent work Sebastian. This looks more awesome with every screenshot.

I have a question. In overtime lenght if I want to play till one team score goal (like NHL playoffs) Will it work that way with 0 or I will hate tu put something like 999 to be sure...

What kinds of options for the relagation leagues and how do they differ from minor leagues?

scuffleball · 01-09-2013, 07:23 AM

Love the settings screenshot! Amazing range of options there for a first release. Well done, guys!

Bluenoser · 01-09-2013, 08:21 AM

Question - The setting for "Penalty Shots". What is this setting for?

Is this the number of rounds for the shootout before it goes sudden death?

Or is the max number of penalty shots allowed in a game? (Can't see that)

If it's for the number of rounds in the shootout, why do you call them "penalty shots" when they aren't?

I know, nit picky but interpretation is important.

Orioles1966 · 01-09-2013, 08:59 AM

How will the neutral site(venue) option work on the schedule editor? Will the arena's be incoporated in the game and/or the arena's can be added manually? What if I want to play a neutral site game in Fresno,CA but don't know the name of the arena?

GermanRocket7 · 01-09-2013, 09:09 AM

It's interesting to see there's a relegation section for the league. Which kinda gets me inspired: would it be possible to create a promotion section as well?

I'd love to have a fictional 5-tier league with promotion/relegation from League 1 all the way down to League 5.

In answer to the first part of your question, it's the number of rounds for the shootout before it goes to sudden death. IIRC, you can set it to zero to disable shootouts altogether.

What about Overtime settings? same as Shotout? zero to turn off? Just interesten if there is posibility to play with "infinite" overtime.

I had a similar thought. For example, If I were to turn the NHL, AHL, and ECHL into a pyramid of leagues, what would happen when an NHL's affiliate in the AHL got promoted to the NHL?

Or would the game force me to create another system of minor leagues?

On a side note, these types of things are why I got SOOOOO excited when I found out OOTP would be doing hockey. When you bring the OOTP creativity, dedication, and functionality to hockey, the player really has an opportunity to create some awesome things!

If they have delagation leagues the Maple Leafs will wind up in a Pee Wee League.

I don't know about European Leagues,but in the NHL/AHL, If you pull your goalie in OT and it results in a goal for the other team,no point is awarded to the losing team . Will that be the case in FHM?

Amazing.

Simply Amazing.

...

I think I just came.

P.S. Can we keep the Toronto clause even if it does nothing in game?

phantompenguin · 01-09-2013, 02:15 PM

I hadn't even fathomed relegation being a possibility...that has me so incredibly psyched.
