Be A GM Mode/Dynasty Part II

[OttawaOilers]

"Fans" were getting mad me for signing to many role players to fill the line-up, so I splurged and signed Paul Martin, Darren Helm, Brad Richardson etc... They'll likely be gone by the Deadline.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Okay, I'm going to start my own Buffalo one but pre-Kane trade. But, Myers and Stafford have to be gone by the draft and I can't keep all three draft picks.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
Tyler Myers + pick for Ryan O'Reilly trade call came in after the 3pm trade deadline. No deal on those two today.

EDIT: 30-45-7 record to end year 1 in Buffalo. Trades included:

Cody Hodgson to Columbus for Dillon Heatherington, Tim Erixon and a 5th round pick.

Michal Neuvirth, Zac Dalpe and Luke Adam to Nashville for Matt Cullen, Max Gortz, Janne Juvonen and a 3rd round pick.

Mid-season, Drew Stafford, Eric Cornel and Nashville's 3rd were traded to Arizona for Max Domi.


Myers and the Islanders 1st will be dealt at the draft.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Ohhhhh, sweet Jesus. These draft day trades. Y'all can see them tomorrow.

Does downloading new roster updates over-write any player edits / creations I've made? Or does it just simply move players around.

I've made a ton of overall + potential changes but don't want to lose all those changes by DLing the latest rosters

Yes it over-write all the changes u made. I also do a ton of changes and it sucks that it will over-write all of them. BUT, all of your own made players will be in free agents.

IN (via trade)

Evander Kane, Mathieu Perreault and Ryan O'Reilly are the newest members of the Buffalo Sabres

OUT (via trade)

Tyler Myers, Matt Moulson and Mike Weber were all traded at the entry draft by the Buffalo Sabres​

This write-up was a bit different. I won't focus on the signings and re-signings in this write up, the focus was more on the draft and the big trades. Next write-up will be back to form, or I may split them up and have a trade deadline update, then update from the deadline - end of playoffs and then a separate post for all the off-season stuff. I'll see.

NHL Draft

NJD Trade
C Paul Gaustad 83/35/3 mil over 2 years

to CGY for
2017 2nd Round Pick (46th Overall)

-Needed to recoup a decent pick after dumping quite a few in my last couple trades. Gaustad was really good but I feel I can either find a cheaper slightly worse guy in UFA or just bring up an AHLer (Give Latta the spot again)

Notable NJD Picks
Round 1 30th LW TWF Nolan Volcan 64/18/4 gold star
Round 2 16th C PLY Mason Shaw 51/18/4 red star
Round 4 30th G HYB Toni Nurmi 69/20/3.5 gold star

-These are probably the only guys with shots at making the NHL, rest were really bad, took some chances on some homerun picks in the very late rounds and they appear to be all definite flops

Re-signing
Resigned Boll 77/31/3 white 1 year 800k
Resigned Boucher 83/23/3.5 gold 2 years 1.6
Resigned Puempel 82/24/4 red 3 years 1.5 (steal)
Reisgned Severson 81/22/4 gold 3 years 1.1 (STEAL)
Released Budaj
Released Steve Bernier
Released Tedenby
Qualified all AHL RFA
Signed all pending UFA prospects

UFA
Signed G Reimer 82/29/4 white 1 year 1.5
Signed C Brodziak 81/33/3 white 2 years 1.3
Signed G Mack Shields 80/22/4.5 gold star 3 years 800k (2015 11th overall)

2017/18 Line-up

Hagelin 86 - Kesler 86 (A) - Monahan 87
Boucher 83 - Granlund 86 - Eriksson 86
Puempel 83 - Henrique 85 (A) - Ruutu 81
Latta 78 - Brodziak 80 - Boll 77

Merrill 85 - Larsson 85
Gunnarsson 84 - Greene 81 (C)
Harrington 79 - Severson 81

Bob 91
Reimer 82

Top 5 Prospects
G HYB Mack Shields 80/22/4.5 gold (2015 11th overall, BUF)
D TWD Nicolas Meloche 76/20/4 green (2015 8th overall, NJ)
RW SNP Daniel Sprong 76/20/4.5 red (2015 68th overall, NJ)
LW TWF Nolan Volcan 65/19/4 gold (2017 30th overall, NJ)
D TWD Ben Thomas 76/21/3.5 gold (2014 119th overall, TB)

Have to say I'm surprised by the lack of growth in Harrington/Severson/Monahan/Boucher. But I think If I can put together another good season of winning hockey and a good playoff run they should hopefully get a good jump. (I do have quite high assistant coach)

Kesler and Greene appear to have regressed quite harshly, Greene moreso. Will perhaps look at moving his big contract out and starting a new captain's reign

Before this gets locked, i'll post this incase some miss it in the new one. Who would be open to joining a GM challenge? Not right now, but when people start wrapping their own up we can set up some rules, pick a team and then make a thread.

He is literally a hockey god, 12 years with 50+ goals, and 50 is a bad season for him

Never seen someone score 70 Goals before besides Stamkos scoring 62 in 67 Games.

Virtanen needs to pass the puck to his teammates. He's looking like anti-Wennberg in that GM Mode.

 

[Jesseboy]

I´m starting a gm mode after the Trade Deadline roster update have became. I´ll do then my own gustom roater update where i have ctreated guys like J.Eichel, J.Chychrun (if he isn´t in game), N.Hanifin etc. I also change almost every player to their realistic potential and/or overall. Not sure what team i will do..

__________________________________
Started my game with internet down, so i didn't have updated rosters, thus having to sign Winnik and no Rick Panik (still pissed about that). Looking to aim at a younger team, since half of the roster is already Exact POT, will eventually trade the vets for picks/prospects, and definitely have to fix my 3rd/4th lines and 3rd d pairing. However, I'm currently 10-3-1, 1st in the Atlantic and 2nd in the league.
Suggestions for my trades/roster/how to post properly lol
