Reception
[edit]Mega placed the game at #2 in their Top Mega Drive Games of All Time.[1] According to Maximum: "A previously under-exposed and almost unheard of sport this side of the great divide, the original NHL on the Megadrive was a benchmark title and thanks to the reputation of John Madden Football and an excellent review in Mean Machines, it became an instant classic."[2]
