I think I have turned the Isles into a playoff caliber team and the system is well stocked to turn this team into a legit contender

Opinions welcome? Especially Isle fans

Where's MacDonald? He's better than anyone up there other than Brewer/Larsson.

Not only that.. you have yet to re-sign Labarbera... I even PM'ed you and told you that earlier today.

Kurt Sauer, Taylor Pyatt, Paul Bisonette,all on 1 way contracts all missing off your roster.

Johnny and Juice, it's not like this is your first GM game, it's not that hard to follow the rules, and pay attention to who is on your team. Maybe next time before you guys sign every FA on the market for millions more then they need, you can focus on the players you already have, and have gone out the way to re-sign as well.

I don't even know where to start other than to say you've obviously never watched the Coyotes play.

-- You've changed every single forward line, meaning there is no chemistry between any of the forwards.
-- Fiddler is strictly a checking line center who kills penalties, and you have him on a scoring line.
-- Lindberg is a 19-year-old, unsigned center playing in the SEL, who has never played North American hockey for any period of time.
-- Tikhonov has been passed on the depth chart by several forwards in San Antonio, where he still plays.
-- You got rid of Yandle, your best puck-moving defenseman, and moved Morris to the pair with Jovo, negating Morris' passing game and ability to follow the rush because he'll now have to cover Jovo's long-gone defensive skills.
-- You paired OEL with Poti, who hasn't played a full season in the NHL since 2006.
-- You have no veteran presence to support your four 30-pus year-old veterans.
-- Vokoun is a downgrade from Bruzgalov.
-- And you blew up your prospect pool.

This looks like one of those Coyotes teams from the days when Gretzky and Mike Barnett traded futures for aging vets, believing that gave the team its best chance to win. The result was no playoff appearances in 8 years and a depleted minor league system. And no Barnett and no Gretzky.

I can think of about 20 more things, but in the interest of space I'll leave it at you very well may be on the clock with the first pick of the 2012 draft. And please refund my deposit on my 2011-12 season tickets.


EDIT: BTW, am I one of the few GMs in these games who, if I'm not overly familiar with the team I'm managing, reaches out at the beginning of the game to a GM that knows my team?

I haven't but I think that's because a) I watch too much hockey and b) I enjoy hearing feedback from said team's fans at the end of the game without them telling me how I should of done it during. It was nice getting Randall Ritchey's seal of approval on my Blues game, but also know he didn't entirely approve of the Pietrangelo/Streit deal. If I had asked before it probably would of stopped me from moving Pietrangelo. I hope Bingo doesn't hate me too bad for moving Semin, but at the same time I landed Ryan Miller, Tim Gleason, Yandle, Brandon Sutter among others.

That said it's becoming clear that some of the GM's might want to try out your suggestion. :laugh:

It's only game # 3 so far but I'm already having a hard time keeping tabs of some of the hilarious moves/moments so far. Nothing beats the first round playoff vote PM I received, stating simply "Washington Capitals"

RR,

You didn't even mention trading the selke caliber third line center that is pivotal to stopping Thornton, Getzlaf, and Kopitar.

IR is it safe to assume the player approved his NTC lift. RR has agreed and you said any playoff team, but I wanted to confirm.

I'm interested to see a Non-Canuck fan take Vancouver. It's been myself, TourettesGuy and King Canuck so far. All familiar with the team.
