Danrik's GM Game - News, Rumors and Trade Discussion

[The Mighty Duck Man]

I'm now encouraging offers for any one of my defenseman, except Ozolinsh and Vishnevski. So, available are Ruslan Salei, Keith Carney, Mark Popovic, and Glen Wesley. I'm looking to trade only one of them. Carney has a NTC, but, he likely would waive it for a contender and/or a team in the Pacific division(he's the hardest to get out of them all, btw).

I would just like to say that I've created an NHL 2004 game with the entirely updated rosters using the trades and signings that have been made. I'm waiting to see what else devolps before I actually starts playing (or simming) it, but I'm looking forward to seeing who wins.

Who? Danrik?

 

[Classic Devil]

I decided to play the first game with the current rosters (without the UFA signings).

Here are the scores for the first day of the new season (understand, NHL 2004 is very high scoring, high hitting)

Day One
MTL 5 - OTT 1
NYI 4 - WSH 5
ANA 4- NSH 4
SJ 4 - EDM 2
CAR 4 - FLA 4
LA 5 - DET 4
BUF 3 - PHI 4
CAL 4 - VAN 3
CBJ 1 - ATL 4
NJ 8 - BOS 1
(Shanahan - Parise - Cole had three goals and four assists)

Day Two
COL 4 - CHI 3
PHO 5 - STL 4
PIT 5 - LA 4
TB 4 - BOS 2
MIN 3 - NYR 2

 

[Classic Devil]

Who? Danrik?

No me. I originally wrote the post in 3rd person and then changed it.. guess I didn't catch everything. Oops.

The only trade I'm not sure about is the Datsyuk/Zetterburg for Drury/Kalinin deal. What excatly were the terms of that deal?

What happened on the first day, which included something ANA vs. DAL, and two other games(forgotten by yours truly)?

BTW, you didn't happen to play the NJ-BOS game on your own, did you?

NHL 2004 is impossible to keep track of. The scores just run quickly along the bottom of the screen, I must not have caught them all.

ANA is 0-1-1-0 though, so I guess you lost. It also doesn't tell me who won in OT and who didn't. That's really strange, since I know you only played one game.

And... uh... well.... yeah....

Scorers for that game were:
Shanahan - 2G, 1A
Parise - 1G, 1A
Langenbrunner - 1G, 1A
Elias - 0G, 2A
Vasicek - 2G, 0A
Cole - 0G, 2A
Martin - 1G, 0A
Hamrlik - 0G, 1A
Stevens - 0G, 1A
Gomez - 1G, 0A
Gionta - 0G, 1A

Rolston - 1G, 0A (shorthanded)

Just so you know how off in terms of reality NHL 2004 is... here are the top goal scorers in the NHL.

Markus Naslund, 85 goals
Geoff Sanderson, 81 goals
Theo Fleury, 78 goals
Sergei Fedorov, 78 goals

Vancouver got screwed! Inelligable Players for L.A.It's riot time in vancity. Then again, that simming system really is out to lunch.

On to the game though, Both Pheonix and Columbus are looking for a top ten pick. Columbus would be willing to give up Dan Fritsche, Konstantin Koltsov, Marc Denis among others.

Pheonix would be willing to give up Mike Johnson, Pavel Brendl, and Maybe Keith Ballard. PM me for offers.

If you sim the season and play the season or whatever on Difficult the scoring is lower and makes more realistic stats.

Maybe I did forget to put it on difficult... I simmed the season regardless though.
I'll do that next time around. I'm also going to turn off injuries, because they got kind of rediculious.

I think Anaheim's ranking says it all. And, btw, ignore the playoffs, nothing to see there.

I'm working on a website for the GM Game. I can't guarantee that it will pan out, but if it does, it will be super basic as I am not very good at working with that sort of a thing. However, it will have a chat room, making trade talks and the draft (when we have it) much easier to do.

Hopefully that will work out and I'll get it done before long. Don't expect anything too fancy, though.

thanks, thats a great idea - no worries, it doesn't need to be a fancy flash site

 

[dwaynester]

will offer whatever help i can

I dont know how to set up websites, but willing to help out if I can. This is pretty cool here, and I am really enjoying the challenge of building two franchises.

What are you using to program it? I've got a bunch of experience with a couple languages... but probably nothing useful.
