Tank Master Benny has the Leafs dead last and its not even close. I has 37 points, 2nd last has 51 points. Plus it also let me sign a free agent, woot woot.

Briere still has to go btw.

derriko · 09-30-2012, 01:45 AM

Seeing as where we are at in the season, Timmonen (84 overall) and Hannan (81 overall) are now available.

benjiv1 · 09-30-2012, 11:33 AM

I don't understand this game. Half a week ago, St. Louis was 4th in the league following a massive winning streak when Backes and Jackman were injured.

I trade the two of them thinking, sweet my team is doing better without them, my team then proceeds to dive-bomb before the trade deadline.

Get your injured Jagr or Whitney for the playoffs

GK · 09-30-2012, 12:15 PM

Yeah.. I have Kostitsyn injured for the next 39 games!

sent you an offer

chrewilson · 09-30-2012, 02:16 PM

Can we get a definite time for the next sim? It should be bringing us past the trade deadline, just want to know the latest I can make deals...

derriko · 09-30-2012, 02:22 PM

I think we could use 2 days or so to plan and orchestrate deadline deals.

benjiv1 · 09-30-2012, 03:00 PM

There is no way for me to see when the deadline is! (unless I am missing it)

Also, I'm going full tank mode. Callahan and Halak available for an upgrad on the RW. (preferably an 84 overall SNP or PLY)

All offers will be considered.

GK · 09-30-2012, 03:14 PM

Maybe we don't have a deadline...

WantEggRoll · 09-30-2012, 03:42 PM

I really hope they do something to address how slow the menus are. Just went to change my lines around a bit and it took like fifteen minutes.

and then two games into the next sim the CPU will screw that ALL up.

Benny FTW · 09-30-2012, 04:12 PM

Briere is a 1st liner.

I'd be interested if they were UFAs to be

AJC 2121 · 09-30-2012, 04:59 PM

C Ribeiro(82) RW Knuble(80) D Hamrlik(82) D Colaiacovo(81), all UFA, all are still available. Get them now to bolster your playoff run, before the deadline comes and goes!!

My D is looking really bad right now. What would you want for Colaiacovo?

Sopel is, unless you were implying u weren't interested in him.

I thought he had 3 years left too, though you're right I'm not interested

I'd really like Briere and Salvador for the playoffs, who wouldn't? Not that I'm a shoe-in anyway.

I can't justify having Briere at 6.5 though, and Salvador is an old fart

Deku Scrub · 09-30-2012, 06:43 PM

Drayson Bowman
2014 3rd Round Pick

Bowman is 72 overall with 3.5 stars. However, he won't develop well on my fourth line. (He's a sniper) He could use a change of scenery.

I dont get why there isn't a Calender in GM Connected.

I get the feeling that whoever was developing GM Connected ran out of time and just rushed it. It's a decent first attempt at it but they are missing out on some major components like no way to look at your ahl team to see how prospects are developing, how the assistant coach will call players up and down and put them on waivers at any giving time, etc.

A lot of loose ends on it.
