I put all 30 teams into a list randomizer and came up with NY Islanders.
Expectations: 37 wins in year 1
The Draft
Decide to shed some unwanted salary/players. On the block: DiPietro, Parenteau, & Weight
Draft #5.
1st round offers: 1: DiPietro to Carolina for Borer & Joslin - Rejected 2: DiPietro to Nashville for O'brien & Begin - Counter for Franson adding Klementyev - Rejected
I make an offer for the #1 pick, no dice.
With my 1st round pick, #5 I select D Sam Lofquist OFD USA
2nd round offers: 1: Moulson & Mottau to Colorado for Foote, O'Bryne & Cann - Rejected 2: DiPietro to St.Louis for Polak & Nikitin - Counter for Pietrangelo adding Klementyev & SJ 2nd - Rejected
Decide to just draft hanging up the phones.
#35: LW Matti Bergenheim PWF Finland #58: G Aaron Stoll BUT North Korea
3rd round offers: 1: Hamonic & NYI '11 2nd to Boston for Marchand, McIver, & Smith - Not dealing Hamonic, I offer for Marchand(Klementyev & PHX 3rd) - They accept. 2: Streit to Nashville(again) for O'brien & Begin(again..) - Counter for Franson adding Wishart - Rejected.
#65: LW Andrej Kudrna SNP Slovakia
4th round offers: 1: Nielsen, Parenteau & NYI '13 2nd to Boston for Campbell & McQuaid - I counter, switching Nielsen for Joensuu - Rejected
Decide to just draft hanging up the phones.
#95: C Daniel Magnusson PLY Sweden
5th round offers: No offers
Decide to just draft hanging up the phones.
#125: LW Bjorn Schultz PWF Germany
6th round offers: No offers
Decide to just draft hanging up the phones.
#155: D Julien Levassuer TWD Canada #160: RW Alexander Lagerstrom TWF Sweden
7th round: Again, no offers.
Decide to just draft hanging up the phones.
My last pick: #185: RW Laurin Braun TWF Germany
Draft over.
Free Agency
Re-signings: Sim, for whatever reason was a rookie.. signed him. And my rookies.
I decided to remove a lot of players via buyout, don't want them, salaries are low. Hilbert, Colliton, Marcinko, Romano, Dibenedetto, Parenteau, Yablonski, Figren, Katic, Reese, & Lawson - Under $2,200,000 for them all.
Looking for a top pick, team doesn't look like it can compete, don't make any offers.
Offers: 1: Phoenix offers Stafford and 1st for DiPietro - Rejected, they'll finish high.
2: Tampa offers Desjardins & Jones for DiPietro - rejected, bad offer. Waiting out for a crap team.
3: Edmonton offers Fraser & Strudwick for Comeau & 4th - Rejected, crap players.
4: Philadelphia offers Leino for Wishart - Accepted.
5: St.Louis offers Polak, Nikitin & Bishop for DiPietro & Comeau - I counter, I ask for Allen, 1st & Nikitin - Rejected, clearly too much.
Almost pre-season, need to find a new home for DiPietro. I'm targeting Allen from STL.
Success, Jake Allen & STL 1st for Dipeitro, Comeau & 3rd
Comeau expendable because of Marchand.
Pre-season
Roster for pre-season, will be the same as regular season.
Moulson[81] - Tavares[83] - Okposo[83] Leino[80] - Bailey[80] - Grabner[79] Marchand[79] - Weight[80] - Hunter[81] Nielsen[77] - Konopka[78] - Sim[78]
Jurcina[78] - Streit[84] Mottau[77] - Eaton[79] Gervais[76] - Hillen[76]
Montoya[74] Koskinen[74]
Game 1 vs Pittsburgh - L-OT 5-4 Game 2 vs NY Rangers - L 2-1 Game 3 vs Philadelphia - L 6-2 Game 4 vs New Jersey - W 4-2
Begins the first season as the GM of NY Islanders..
