You guys are doing it wrong. It only says the players need to be currently active NHLers, but who says you need to play them at their natural positions. Try loosing to this team:

That team still takes the Oilers in 5 games.

All those goalies probably have a much better understanding of defense.

thats a good one or should I say a bad one lol
good job at making a bad team, count down till Katz offers u a job

 

[Sens Rule]

Looking at these lineups.... It makes me think that it is pretty hard to make a horrible team in the cap era. I mean expansion Senators, mid 70's Caps, early 90's Nords or even the current Sabres.

In the Cap era it is hard to not have parity. Most of these horrible teams in the thread actually would win 20-25 games a season.

Even most contracts that are "bad" aren't really that bad.

SHOCKED it took til this post for Pouliot to be listed!

Yeah, I actually think he's a decent player for the bottom 6. But not at 4mil.
