It's no secret the trade AI in this game is absolutely ********.. but I didn't make this thread to complain, more so for entertainment and to share with you the worst trade I've ever seen.

First of all I'll have you know I actually turned off 'trades' before I started the season for exactly this reason but It doesn't matter on Draft day or the deadline because the CPU will make trades whether they're on or not. So I start my dynasty.. Before anything, before the season even starts, 2nd round of the draft... The Pittsburgh Penguins trade Brooks Orpik and Jordan Staal for JONATHAN TOWES AND PATRICK KANE... Both of them... For close to nothing.

Af first I was just stunned, not only was the trade horrible and senseless for Chicago.. I hadn't even played a game and the teams were already screwed up.

To the mods: I did a search but I didn't see any threads like this... sorry if it's already been done.

I just posted a thread asking if this type of thing was common with season mode, as well. I'm about 6 games into the season, and haven't seen anything goofy...yet.

Yeah I saw it, sorry I can't help you buddy.. Haven't played much of the season mode, I usually play Be A GM. Hopefully the trades are better in the season mode though.

I've read that the trades are really weird if you start at the draft opposed to the start of the regular season. I've turned off trades completely in my BAGM until the trading deadline (well, CPU trades)

In my BAP, I saw some weird ones.

Before my first season even started Edmonton traded **newly acquired** Khabibulin and Pouliot to Dallas for Marty Turco.

I was all like WTF?!

Seriously, Edmonton just got the guy this year, and before he even plays a game they trade him for TURCO??? Don't get me wrong, I like Turco... but they JUST GOT KHABIBULIN!

I'm kinda bummed that I couldn't just start GM mode with the team I have, and not have to go through all the extra garbage first.
