Hello everyone, I have a question surrounding trading on franchise mode.
I'm playing the franchise mode as the 32nd team in the league (brought back the Oakland Seals). The trade deadline is approaching and Nashville is the worst team in the league with only 13 wins and have Filip Forsberg on their trade block.
I offered Cal Clutterbuck (78 rating), and a 2018 first round pick conservatively as they were both assets that it said they wanted. Got rejected. So I tacked on a 2018 3rd round pick (I have stockpiled 4) again an asset they wanted, and one of my extra RW AHL guys (74 rating) who they also wanted. Got rejected.
I decided since I am the top team in the league to wait another day and simmed forward a couple days, and saw Nashville traded Forsberg to the Blues for two AHL guys rated 50 and 55.
I realize my offer may not have been the best but I feel it was certainly better than what the CPU gave, my trade settings are set on easy, and like I said it identified everything I offered as assets they wanted on the block. I should also mention with the addition of my AHL prospect the value bar was fairly similar on both sides. Has anyone seen this in their games before, and possibly I have the wrong thinking in figuring how the CPU views trading so what tips do you have?
