The Oilers players Pickard, Skinner, try the classic video game 'NHL' 94 '

Regardless of the year, no matter what time of year, it is no matter what is present, it is always a good time for a little “NHL '94”.

Edmonton Oilers Calvin Pickard and Stuart Skinner learned that the clock has returned in the NHL headquarters in New York this week to play the continuously popular retro hockey video game.

Pickard and Skinner took some orange chairs in the NHL offices in Manhattan for a little digital warming up before their game on Long Island on Friday evening.

Of course, both of them decided.

The statistics were not nice unless they happened to be the digital goalkeeper version of the former Oilers Netminder Bill Ranford. Eight shots in total, four from each team, zero goals.

It appears from the highlights shown No. 39 Doug Weight, N0. 89 Petr Klima and Shayne Corson No. 9 checked the puck most of the time for both teams (it seems that the line changes have been switched off, probably best for beginners).

The digital defender Dave Manson and Igor Kravchuk checked the game for both sides, but there was a real star in the game.

“This goalkeeper is unreal,” Skinner transformed over his counterpart, a similarity of computer of the former Oilers goalkeeper Bill Ranford.

Pickard agreed, but there seemed to be a lack of familiarity with the play of the players who keep the pucks from finding the cord. Of course, difficult to accuse because Pickard hardly learned a toddler when the game came out and Skinner would not be born for five years.

The competition ended with a goalless draw.

Next time use Jeremy Roenick, Fellas.
