Awesome! That's realistic IMO, and thus a great "challenge" (often you see a significant number of participants make the playoffs and a few even make a run for the Cup/win the Cup in season one; I wonder if it'll be that way this time...doesn't sound like it!)

Don't forget about the new draft lottery system...finishing last doesn't guarantee you the #1 pick
In the 2000 NHL Entry Draft we went a little crazy...
7th overall D Christian Ehrhoff
37th overall D Christoph Schubert
43rd overall W Justin Williams
62nd overall C Antoine Vermette
67th overall W Petr Prucha
73rd overall D Jared Aulin
91st overall C Rich Peverley
93rd overall C Brandon Bochenski
97th overall D David Koci
157th overall D Alexei Semenov
187th overall C Maxim Overall
Hmmm... Ok, i tried to make a super offensive tactic, i think it worked..
Craig Janney win the league in points, 92p! Lecavalier 72p as a rookie.. Selivanov 42 goals, Tucker 39 goals and Clark 33 goals..
Cross 65p and Kubina 63p.. Now time for playoff!
Jagr just got moved to the Canadiens for 20 yr old Michal Ryder 1 for 1. Pittsburgh to Montreal in S3.
Managed to pick-up 3 solid roster additions without giving up much. It was time for Langkow to kick it. Clark has no trade value and is a solid 4th liner.

This is my first challenge and I may not even register my progress(I just want to try out and see how it goes) but I have a question. Do I have to coach all of the exhibition games as well?

Share the tactic with the group
Dont know if everyone like it.. I scored the most goals, thats positive. On the otherside i consealed like the 5th most and had a horrible boxplay. I just made it to playoff, and was kicked out by Philly in second round.
I need a defensive minded center and maybe som wings for 3-4th line.. Gonna trade away Wilkie and Ciccone, i rhinkig of Micheal Peca to replace Janney.
Sen Vinny back to juniors and 6 games in i sent Kubina and Langkow down to AHL, team is so bad anyways so might aswell try to keep Cleveland good in the AHL They'll probably jump up and down between AHL and NHL all season.

No, you don't.
You should however consider registering your progress, that's a big part of the fun. You shouldn't worry too much about the stats though, jsut enjoy the ride, see what other did differntly.. have fun

Is Craig Jenney set to retire at season's end in your game too? 
Atm Lecavalier has 51p in 55 games, and Langkow 38p in 57 games!
They'll probably jump up and down between AHL and NHL all season.
