I have NHL Hockey (the original PC version) running just fine (sourced from my original floppies) and I still enjoy the game play even after 17 years.
I have two somewhat obscure questions about the game controls that I probably used to know the anwers to but can no longer recall:
1) How do you take a timeout? I cannot find a menu option for it. Is there a keyboard control for this?
2) How do you select to play a line that does not match your current game situation? For example, you are at even strength but you would like to select your PP1 or PP2 line instead of the regular Lines 1-4. I would have thought this was impossible and yet I see the computer controlled team doing this from time to time, even after a stoppage of play (so I know it is not just a tired line that has stayed on the ice from a previous power play). Is there a way to do this intentionally or is this just a "feature" that only the computer can activate?
Thanks all,
