kingraph Posted October 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Deadline is up and MrSandman receives The Hartford Whalers! Thanks all for a wonderful (inaugural) classic draft...stay tuned for information on divisions, schedules, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSandman Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) I would like to change to Pittsburgh, instead of Hartford if thats possible? CHI should be banned in these tournaments, even if you have the upperhand against an opponent that is not as good as you. He just gets the puck to Roenick and its good night.

You can say the same about Yzerman, Bure, Mogilny, etc. Roenick is the best player out there, but Chicago doesn't have many good F after that. Larmer? Learn to b-check or CB check (he's 4 weight) him down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LA Robbie Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Pittsburgh it is.

Learn to b-check or CB check (he's 4 weight) him down. Roenick is awesome & Belfour in goal also gives them an edge at the other end, but many would argue Detroit are a far more dangerous team with Yzerman flanked by Dino & Fedorov, and a great bugger in Dallas Drake. Clearly their forward line is head & shoulders above any other team in the game. Add Lidstrom & Coffey on D & a serviceable goalie & you have far more weapons than Chicago. Like King says, at least vs CHI you know where the main threat is coming from! Many coaches don't fancy picking Chicago for exactly that reason, leaning more to towards the better balanced power teams of Detroit, Buffalo, Vancouver & even Montreal who despite the lack of a real super star could be considered the best weight bug team?

Personally I feel 1 superstar with 2 average/sub-par forwards is better than 3 decent F's. So I'd still consider Roenick/Larmer/Ruutu or Murphy better than any line combo you can put in MTL. And yes, DET F's are insane. I think among elite coaches, Detroit is the most dangerous team as the advantage Belfour gives you over Cheveldae is negligible (if any). However, the vast majority of games have average-very good coaches and Roy/Belfour make a big difference there. It's why Chicago remains the "best" team in a general sense.
