Top five overall free pick (2nd round) is on the market...looking for a lot. Willing to package pretty much anyone on the team if necessary.
EDIT: Duh-duh-duh-DEALT!
I just had some games with this lad. Very hard fought, tight affairs.
I'm assuming I should wait until he's activated on the site to log them, correct?
EDIT (mostly so I'll remember 'em): Here are the scores from yon games.
PHI0@QUE3
PHI3@QUE4 OT
PHI1@QUE0
QUE3@PHI5
QUE2@PHI1 OT
Valeri Kamensky and Mike Ricci really just make me want to tear my hair out sometimes. Especially Kamensky, who can make a miracle shot one moment then completely miss an empty net the next.
Coincidentally, both of these fellows were starters on my Blitz squad.
Obviously, I'm slightly upset with this decision. Let me just get this out of my system before we move on.
...ah. Now, beyond that, I can see why this is a good system to keep a little team identity going, and I'm at least thankful I'll get a high 2nd round/whatever the first free round is pick. Plus, I'm kinda fond of Adam Oates, so it'll be nice to maybe guarantee him a spot on this team.
So yeah, I'm sad I won't get a franchise guy, but I can see why this is kinda sorta good for the league.
AJ is a genius-type man. If NHL 94 was a trilogy of movies, AJ would have watched all three many times and could quote any line at will, including the credits.
This was my opinion from the old thread, back in the days when I hadn't thought of checking deeply for more backups (ie Kovalenko, Kamensky, Gusarov), and as well hadn't realized capatalization on the interweb was an option. I still stand by les Nords, though.
As I've said before, put another team anywhere in Canada and they're gonna be a huge draw, at least for the first season or so.
That said...YEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! NORDIQUES! BRING 'EM BACK! DOOOOOOOOOOO IT!!!
Hey, kudos to everyone who inputted, especially AJ with the longest PM I've ever seen (which was freakishly insightful and awesome, btw). Hopefully I can use this to pull off at least double-digit points this season .
As well, I just love how off topic this thread has gotten.
I had quite a good laugh at that...
"Mikey, please, you're hurting my feelings..."
Komisarek seems a little goon-like yes, but damn, he's better then what we had. Watching Ian White tonight made me cringe.
Leafs for the cup, although I think San Jose will end up taking it home.
If there's enough people for B, I could run it. It wouldn't be anything special (read: website/fancy shiza with savestates), but if people want it, I'll take it on.
Holy crap I forgot this even existed...on a scale of 1-10, it's very, very dead.
I hereby declare myself the champion.
GGs.
EDIT: Very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very...
