time to cleanse the palate for today and bring you folks some real sports instead of the same ol' shit that ain't ever gonna change.
I'm playing a full season of SimLeague Hockey (NHL) on WhatIfSports for the first time, and decided to use a lineup of the Edmonton Oilers from NHL Hockey '92 (only on the Sega Genesis) by Electronic Arts.
this Edmonton Oilers lineup will be composed of:
> Line 1: Mark Messier (C), Esa Tikkanen (LW), Joe Murphy (RW)
> Line 2: Ken Linseman (C), Petr Klima (RW/LW), Glenn Anderson (RW)
> Line 3: Craig MacTavish (C), Craig Simpson (LW), Kelly Buchberger (RW)
> Line 4: Adam Graves (C), Martin Gelinas (LW), Dave Brown (RW)
> Defense Pair 1: Steve Smith (LD), Charlie Huddy (RD)
> Defense Pair 2: Geoff Smith (LD), Chris Joseph (RD)
> Defense Pair 3: Kevin Lowe (LD), Jeff Beukeboom (RD)
> Goalies: Bill Ranford (starter), Grant Fuhr (backup)
> Extras/Healthy Scratch (Press Box): Anatoli Semenov (C), Norm Maciver (D), Craig Muni (D)
> PP Line 1: Mark Messier (C), Craig Simpson (LW), Glenn Anderson (RW)
> PP Line 2: Craig MacTavish (C), Martin Gelinas (LW), Joe Murphy (RW)
> PP Pair 1: Steve Smith (LD), Charlie Huddy (RD)
> PP Pair 2: Chris Joseph (LD), Kevin Lowe (RD)
> SH Line 1: Petr Klima (Left Forward), Craig MacTavish (Right Forward)
> SH Line 2: Adam Graves (Left Forward), Ken Linseman (Right Forward)
> 4-on-4 OT [Overtime] Line: Mark Messier (Left Forward), Esa Tikkanen (Right Forward)
in other words, i'm gonna get this very last Edmonton Oilers team from their 1980s championship dynasty days one last run at championship glory. because after the 1991 Stanley Cup Playoffs, Edmonton gradually gave away all their key players except for Buchberger.

>>11674thanks and much appreciated. sim season hasn't even started yet, but I make sure this Edmonton Oilers lineup revolve around the legendary Mark Messier as that was the only Sega Genesis NHL game that had him in an Edmonton Oilers sweater.
i got some good comments in picrel. someone told me Mike Gartner, Wayne Gretzky (99), Mario Lemieux (66) and even Theoren Fleury were fast as fuck, and also said Jeremy Roenick was unstoppable in either NHL 92 or 93 that they had to make later revision patches to slow them down.

the only way Anatoli Semenov is gonna get any actual game time for this Oilers team is if at least one of Messier, Linseman, MacTavish or Adam Graves go down with injury or suspension.
same thing with Norm Maciver and Craig Muni. The only way they'll get actual game time is if at least one of Steve Smith, Huddy, Geoff Smith, Chris Joseph, K-Lowe or Beukeboom go down with injury or suspension.
