Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

Yeah, it seems like your going to have to tank this season and settle for a high draft pick in a very deep draft. You should try and trade Comrie/Wieght/Witt for some draft picks and bring up Comeau/Nielsen/Joensuu to see how they do in the nhl...

Yep, that's actually the plan haha. Though not so much Witt, he's a decent stay at home d-man which we have very few of. But I'm definitely willing to get rid of him, just not as badly as Comrie, Weight and Sillinger.

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

You were doing good, then bam offense dies out. You were playing playoff teams though.
Now I'm interested in what you will do in the offseason.

Yeah, die out did it ever. And as for the offseason... scorers will be priority #1 clearly haha.

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

I'm back and THIS IS AWESOME i too can't wait for the offseason.

Haha, thanks. Making the playoffs would've been much more awesome though.

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

So it's impossible for you to make the playoffs?

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

lets hope not.

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

Not impossible, but we're 9 points out with 22 games left and 4 teams in front of us. It would take probably at least a .750 record to make it and I don't even think we've done that in a week yet lol.

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

You can get there!
All it takes if for one of your goalies to get hot.
That or you should just throw the season to get a high pick, because I doubt you want to be in the middle of the picks.
Edit: Now that I think about it, if you get a middle of the road pick, you could go after a RFA.

[crayzman]

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

Sorry, forgot to update the standings (it'll be weekly now), we're 12 points out with 18 games remaining and 5 teams ahead of us. So yeah... we're screwed. Haha.

[GoldenJet]

Re: Resurrecting the Isles (EHM)

Well, it'll defiently be hard but you can still do it. I just realized that there is a typo in your username unless you wanted "crayzman" I thought you were going for crazyman. Well it's much more unique either way.
