Did you know each team has it's own strengths? I think Minnesota is the fastest team and Montreal or Los Angeles has the best fighting. Can't find this information in a quick net search - do you know? I wish I had all my old nintendo powers ...

My best score is 21 - 3. Getting a shoutout on pro is so hard!

yes yes, I have always used Edmonton......kind of a superstition.....I never use any other team.

I dont know any of their strengths and weaknesses for a fact, but im sure its online somewhere...

Basicly the penalty shot/tie breaker at the end is the shittiest component of the game. Its like, you watch them hit the puck in your goal, while you fall down in the opposite direction, and you dont even move with the controller. Im sure i could get better, but man does that part suck.

FACE OFF!, WITH THE PASS!, WITH THE PASS!, WITH THE PASS!

Blades of Steel, a classic for the NES. Great game, personally i think all teams play the same but seriously this is an old time favorite of mine.

And for basketball check out Double Dribble.

I'm a Kings fan, so I always used the good ol' purple & gold L.A. team.

It's been a while since I've played, but I don't remember any difference in the teams.
