    In the LG, it isn’t about individual stats as much as team stats. You need to be willing to have bad stats to win games, because LG is more about winning. Winning isn't all about luck (maybe sometimes with EA), you need to know how to win. Recently, I have been interviewing some of the elite LG members, asking them what are some things that help you win.

    You have to know that this is not a drop-in game. This is the LG, where you need to have good communication, not just in-game; you need to have it before the game, in-between periods and afterwards when you're in the locker room talking about the game. While you're in the game, you CANNOT rip on that bad player. They are not going to play any better if you yell at them. They are not a plant, or a pylon that just sits there. After the game, talk to them about it, show them clips of what they did wrong or play with them and show them the right way to do whatever they did wrong.

    In G4’s interview, he told me that having good players like Danger-Rally bail you out when you make errors in bad games helps a lot. Another thing is having good players around you. For example, Canuck said that CCPiper has helped him in lots of areas, and it has got him to the NHL. You need to trust your teammates and listen to what they say. They may say something that will help you later on. Also, having good team chemistry helps, so when you mess up, your team is there to help you, and get you out of those risky situations. Another thing is you need to have team practices, and you can't leave TC players out, even if they can't shoot or pass a beach ball. Teach him how to shoot and pass, because a lot of the goalies can’t stop a beach ball. The most important thing to know is when you lose, you lose as a team, and when you win, it wasn't because G4 scored all the goals. It was because the team won.

    My L2 broke, and as goalie, I can't go to Butterfly on that remote. But when I mess up, I say I'm using the bad remote.

    Good try, I'm guessing this was an article? Not to be rude, more constructive criticism. If you did interviews, try setting the text up as such.

    Dude: Words, Words, Words
    Man:Words, Words, Words
    Dude: Words, Words, Words

    It seemed short, bland, and lumped together. The other side, pretty cool article name. Creative.
