The Wings forward corps gets ridiculous in GM mode.
I know! Its almost stupid at this point. I want to be up Callahan, but who do I trade and for what? My d core is pretty good, and just draft picks doesn't seem worth it. Already traded franzen, and Richards(he whined way to much) to make room for mantha, let miller and Andersson walk to make room for AA, and pulu. Datsyuk even retired after 1 year, and I don't have an opening. I want a legit shut down 4th line, but can't justify losing anyone for nothing... So Ferraro and Callahan are in grand rapids and can't get called up til I have a full time opening... I have become Ken Holland.
Biggest problems stat wise I've noticed. Pulu is really fast in this game, and has no slap shot... Also not a bad problem but kinda dumb. AA after 1 year has 98 speed, and acceleration, and 97 agility. He literally flys and cuts by and through everyone. I can drive right by the D just past the net. Stop, cut back in front and score. 3 on 3 he's like a cheat code...
I still think the game is a ton of fun, especially I'm game. The moral system is a good addition. I hope the add to that next year. I still wish we could sign our own free agents earlier. I also really like the new drafting system. Its not what I was hoping for, but its better.
