i created a team called "Xiled Penguins" just to create a team and see what is going on... i have been wanted to get a team together for sure... I realize that not everyone is going to like the pens (although i know you do doc) so if you are going to make the team make it just Xiled Gaming, or something neutral to the hockey world...
here's how the team thing works... if you play a game as "your team" then you are the created player that you created when you bought the game... also, if you just join a random OTP (online team play) game, you will play as your created player if the game is RANKED... however if the game is unranked, then you play as whoever is in your position normally, for example if you pick center in an unranked game and ur team is the pens, you play as crosby... also in unranked you do line changes, but you reappear as a different person in the same position... example, if ur crosby you will control malkin after u change lines... in the team play and the ranked OTP you don't change lines, you play as yourself the whole time
