well i decided to create a season to play only when i have friends over. and we had a rough start we had to learn to play our positions well and be careful about our mistakes and fall back defenseively, things you dont really care when you play by yourself. in the begening we kept losing games by large margins such as 8-2, 7-4, 5-0 but while we were getting owned by npcs, we started to play better as a team, our team the Tampa Bay Lightning also went through some changes (we traded almost every players to fit our tastes) and things started to get in place. but close to the half season we were 13th on the eastern conference (out of 16 teams) and we needed to be in the top 8 to make the playoffs. we had a 16-23-4 record so we battled harder and started to win games, 3-1, 4-2, 2-0. as time went on we became really good mostly defensively and spent entire games in teh offensive zones so the scores became 7-4, 6-0, 8-3, 7-2.
approaching the last turn of the season we were saw that we needed to win many games to qualify for the playoffs. so we got to work, we eventualyl managed to climb to the 9th position, then the 7th. then we saw we were only a few points behind the washington capitals (leader of our division which would give us the 2nd or 3rd position (theres 3 divisions)) we had a fantastic month of march wit ha 11-1 record. the nthe month of april arrived with its last 3 games. we played the capitals for the first game and won, which put us one point behind with 94. then we lost the 2nd game to the devils. while they lost too. then the last game we won and got up to 96 points. they needed to lose in regulation or OT for us to take the lead and they lost in OT. so we won the divison title because we had more goal scored in the season.
in other words we went from 13th to 2nd in the conference by improving our teamwork and playing hockey the way its meant to be played. were all very proud of our season and the 70 or so games we played and heres some highlights from it that i uploaded to the media hub. pay attention to the one named Quiche which is the guy in the red shirt here
