What was the Edmonton deal? If you made a deal, it wasn't when I was GM, I'll renegotiate if the deal seems right, but its unfair that I have to automatically assume the deals someone else made.

Should watch user and CPU deals, it's very very easy to rip off the CPU.

In my GM league, someone traded 78 overall Jamie McBain for Semin straight up.

NHL13 is a joke though. 12 was so much fun. This game blows. No lie, I was outshooting a comp 35-6 through 2 periods the other day on all star difficult. I was losing 6-0. At that point I decided I'm going to finish my GM season with my friends, award the Cup to a winner, and within 5 minutes of that happening I'm trading the game in for about 35 bucks and buying Halo 4.

They basically turned NHL from a team oriented game where if you make the extra pass, you will be rewarded, into a game where if you make the extra pass to a wide open guy, you're getting robbed. You basically gotta be selfish to score and I hate it.

I understand that, but when Bobby Butler gets you a second line winger, then there's obviously some problems.

There's acceptable trades and than there is those that are complete rip-offs.

its so true, I'm getting really tired of the **** this game plays. NHL 11 was my favourite, but im holding out hope that an update will come out that rewards skill rather than luck

I don't think so.

With user to user, then one user is screwing himself over, that's there problem. The only time it isn't is if a guy is doing an obvious favor for someone else.

As long as the trade is reasonable and benefits both teams it's fine, the thing I find funny is from league to league everyone values seperate players differently. Like in the league I was in, Ladd and Enstrom (83 and 81) got me Bozak (80) Franson (79) and MacArthur (83). Whereas in other leagues, I would've been lucky to get Bozak straight up for Ladd.

Who is the Winnipeg GM?

How good is Wideman and Stajan?

Deal seems really iffy to me. Fair now, but with Burmistrov's potential it'll be a rip off in the future. I mean if it was a user player, then I could see them building the best team possible and giving up Burmistrov.....

I don't know, it's iffy to me. Maybe you can make a deal that guys with four star or better potential under 22 are off-limits or something, but like you said you want people to make deals.

Widemans an 82, Stajan is an 82 also. Burmistrov is only 77 and the other guy is Festerling who is a 72

Burmistrov is only 19 with four-star potential. In actuality, four star potential projects for around 84, so I guess the deal is somewhat fair, but I'm iffy on it to be honest.

thats totally fair, and the contracts arent good for the computer, but i think its close enough to give Calgary the benefit of the doubt. at least this early on in the process i want people to see that they can make deals. plus, i've had 4 star 80's who dont do crap so theres no guarantees

But burmistrov is young.

When I looked at it, people tend to overrate the potentials (sometimes this can be used to an advantage as well). Like Bogosian is an 84 with four-star potential, it's unlikely he gets much better than that. 87 tops.

im not gonna deny the Flames won the deal, they the best player in the long term and controllable for a long time, but the initial deal is fair enough that im gonna give the edge to the user, rather than the computer

Babchuck is the same overall as Hamonic, who is 4 star potential, which as said will get him to 84, making my most recent deal over payment
