A small brag...

Post by Elias26 »

I worked hard on building the Devils up & wanted to post the team for comments. I am signing cheap FA so some might consider that cheating. Every team I play the scouting report says they are pathetic. :-p

Feb 2012
O
Kovalchuck-Crosby-Gaborik
Elias-Spezza-Stewart
Prospal-Handzuse-Cole
Pandolfo-Kubis-Headstrom

D
Berard-Morris
Vaananen-Martin
Meszaros-Morrisonn

G
Straka (A better Brodeur) 2 years in a row I drafted 2 goalies who were better Brodeurs so I traded the older one for a ton of pics.
Clemmensen

Total roster cost (including players in Albany) $38,000,000

Pics
3 first round pics (for the next 2 years)
3 second round pics
3 3rd round pics

& 3 5 star prospects

I'm having fun with this team let me know what you guys think!

Hey, I've also been playing with the Devils for some time now. I'm in the beginning of the 2011-2012 season and I've won 6 straight Cups. :joy: You have a pretty good team there, winning any Cups?

My line-up
Alexander Ovechkin - Evgeni Malkin - Phil Kessel
Eric Staal - Patrick Marleau - Nathan Horton
Mario Uhrik - Derek Roy - Jed Ortmeyer
Brandon Prust - Boyd Gordon - Rastislav Dej
(Brian Boyle)

Jack Johnson - Joni Pitkänen
Andrej Meszaros - Erik Johnson
Ossi Väänänen - Kevin Klein
(Jonas Ahnelöv)

Marty Brodeur/Jimmy Howard

Marleau wears the C for me. Malkin and Horton have the A's.

it's funny how much i struggled at first with this game, then once i won the first Cup (after finishing 8th in the conference and coming from a 3-1 deficit in the first round), winning is pretty much a constant. With the right coaching staff, i can pretty much put things on auto pilot while my team wins.

Well, if that team doesn't win over half your games every season, then something is very very wrong.

Last season the Ducks team sucked ( thats what the scouting report said) even though they had Bobby Ryan & some good rookies & they only lost something like 15 games all year & won the cup...

In my assorted Challenge games I've found it's always that first matchup that is toughest/most stressful. If I make it out of the 1st round I am confident I'll go on to take the Cup.

The worst thing to happen seems to be to face a team in the first round that has half their team hurt. Somehow thier cast of nobodies with nothing stats will run you down like a darn freight train it seems :roll: This used to happen a lot with LA who'd be missing their top 8 forwards by the playoffs but still make the Final somehow. :rant:
