Who should our next Challenge Team be?

Post by Minstrel »

Based upon our previous voting the two teams remaining for consideration for our first Challenge under the new North American Update rules are the San Jose Sharks and the Washington Capitals.

San Jose is closer to the Islanders Challenge with a basically playoff ready team. The Caps are closer to our efforts to rebuild the Minnesota Wild. I've added Columbus to the list to have a team in the middle ground. They made some interesting moves in the offseason and they could be on the brink of being a contender.

Here's the team information to consider before voting:

San Jose
  • • Board Says: Make The Playoffs
    • Starts With Contracts Worth: $26 Million
    • Budget: $34 Million
    • Salary Cap: $39 Million
Washington
  • • Board Says: Improve Roster
    • Starts With Contracts Worth: $20.5 Million
    • Budget: $28 Million
    • Salary Cap: $39 Million
Columbus
  • • Board Says: Improve Roster
    • Starts With Contracts Worth: $32.5 Million
    • Budget: $34 Million
    • Salary Cap: $39 Million
You would still be required to stay within 2 million dollars of the Board's suggested budget.

And yes, you can get Ovechkin signed before the season if we play Washington :)

I voted CBJ, although I wont start a challenge for a while yet as I haven't installed the patch (too far in my saved game to restart for a while) Also, I'll wait for the SI data update after season start and see if they release a patch to sort out the contracts
