GM Game #1 by Wolfy, RR, and IR

[CaptPantalones]

Buffalo has a couple moves in the queue right now

Stewart, weber, meszaros, Benoit, enroth actively available. Looking for futures in most cases

 

[OnTheBrink]

It was more Dave Bolland that got my attention

Just signed a 5 yr / 5.5M AAV ( Tallon ) that would be unrealistic to see traded in this game

Tallon, quickly realized he made a mistake and was hoping someone would pony up and fix his mistake.

 

[Dichow Stopper]

around for trade talks but feeling alone...

 

[Peter Griffin]

:

Looking for
Two-way 2nd or 3rd line center
Physical, top 6 winger.

Available

Alex Killorn

Most picks/prospects

 

[NYR Viper]

The Rangers are pretty comfortable right now although we have a few players available:


Rick Nash
Marc Staal
John Moore
Prospects

 

[Dichow Stopper]

Renaud Lavoie : I am told that the Habs are listening to offers for Lars Eller and there is definitely interest from other teams.

 

[Backstrom #19]

Alex Ovechkin - Nicklas Backstrom - Tom Wilson
Andre Burakovsky - Evgeny Kuznetsov - Troy Brouwer
Jason Chimera - Brooks Laich - Joel Ward
Eric Fehr - Marcus Johansson - Chris Brown
Jay Beagle, Michael Latta

Karl Alzner - Matt Niskanen
Brooks Orpik - John Carlson
Dmitri Orlov - Mike Green
John Erskine - Jack Hillen

Braden Holtby
Justin Peters​

Red - Untouchable
Blue - Trading Block

Looking to add a 2nd line center and a top-6 forward.

 

[RR]

2015-16, here we come. It's time to re-tool. We're looking to add a top-6 scoring winger, a shutdown D, and picks. We'll consider moving anyone other than OEL and our prospects.

 

[NYR Viper]

The Rangers have bee very busy in trying to take the next step to become a perennial powerhouse so far. Still looking to be very busy.


Marc Staal
Carl Hagelin


Jeff Skinner
Andrej Sekera
CAR 2nd 15

When AV was brought in, the Rangers changed to a puck possession and puck control team. We feel Jeff and Andrej can be big parts of that moving forward.

We love Jeff's upside at only 22 and with such a high scoring upside. We project him as a consistent 70 point LWer.

Andrej we see as a very solid 2nd pairing defenseman who can help move the puck up the ice and we are hopeful to re-sign him as we believe he fits our style of play.

We hated to give Marc and Carl as they have been very good Rangers but we felt the upside coming back and the fact that we have young players like Jesper Fast, JT Miller, Oscar Lindberg, Kevin Hayes and others who we feel can replace what Hagelin brought to the team moving forward

Skinner-Stepan-Nash
Kreider-Brassard-Zuccarello
Hayes-Miller-MSL
Fast-Moore-Lombardi/Malone

McDonagh-Girardi
Sekera-Klein
Moore-Boyle

I like that deal a lot for the Rangers.

I think that we are not allowed to send in trades right now. See IR second post.

Marc Staal
Carl Hagelin


Jeff Skinner
Andrej Sekera
CAR 2nd 15

confirmed.

Definitely lost the trade but I wanted to solidify the D and adding the final Staal brother seemed like a perfect place to start for the Canes retool.

Could have just signed him as an FA.....but....I dared... to dream?

 

[member 202355]

Wait, so Marc Staal is a UFA after this season?

Yikes, that trade looks really bad actually.

 

[NYR Viper]

Crap, I'm on my phone. Hope IR lets this to through for now.

Sekera is also a UFA at years end

 

[Dichow Stopper]

Hope that you would be able to retain him.

I don't think that the deal is that bad valuewise but the 2nd should have gone your way considering the fact that Staal will be an UFA after the season.

EDIT : Sekera is an UFA too so I guess there should have been no pick involved then.

 

[NYR Viper]

I can be in season UFA agent but I need to discuss my own with someone...

The odds of Staal staying is higher than Sekera. His entire family is in one spot

That makes the deal better for sure. Although Skinner for Hagelin is not too good value-wise. On top of that, the 2nd is being added to the superior player. Ah well.

 

[Dichow Stopper]

In real life, yes. In GM Games, who knows with the crazy offers in FA?

 

[NowitzkisBrownNugget]

We're looking to contend this season. With the previous addition of Ryan Kesler we feel we're just a piece or two away from contending for a Stanley Cup.

Looking for:
3rd or 4th line centre
Vet, top-6 wings
Vet, back-up goalie

Available:
Sheldon Souray
Bryan Allen
Clayton Stoner
Matt Beleskey
Mark Fistric
All Picks
Most Prospects

 

[C-Saku Koivu MTL]

Considering top UFA players don't re-sign before the market opens in these games, it's not a good trade for Carolina but for real life value, it's a great trade for both side (minus the 2nd round pick).

 

[donghabs98]

Trading Block

Viktor Stalberg
Eric Nystrom
Olli Jokinen
Gabriel Bourque

Looking For

Scoring wingers
Top 4 Defensemen
Top line center.

 

[KuralySnipes]

around, and willing to do some trade talks. I wasn't able to post roster last night, I got distracted by homework hopefully it's up before Patriots' game this afternoon.

I wouldn't have added the 2nd but no one will even know the player anyway even if we do a full draft.

If were trying to keep the game realistic then staal would have agreed in principle on an extention for Skinner to be involved.

 

[Habsfannick]

are around for trade talks all day. Marleau, Thornton, Niemi and Burish all OTB but don't come at me with your scraps for Marleau and Thornton, I'm not gonna be giving them away if nothing worthwhile comes up were prepared to keep them.
