      Hi everyone. Just wanted to say that Florida GM mode is coming tomorrow twice.

      Thanks.

        You know.. this game is fantastic... and I mean that. There are times when I'm wowed by this game.

        We beat Colorado 2-1, but it was such a great game of hitting, puck control and excellent goaltenders. One goal we scored went off the D's body, up in the air, swiped at by the G and then swatted in by Oshie. It was one of the greatest goals I've ever seen in the EA NHL series and it was reviewed too.

        We say goodbye to a great player and person, D Barret Jackman was traded to the Florida Panthers along with the 2015 7th round pick for their 2015 2nd round pick.

        With the emergence of D Chris Butler and D Philip Larsen, we decided to send Jackman to Florida. This was a pure money move as he made $3.2 million.

        We will miss you Jackman, but know you'll do great things in Florida.

          39-20-2 at the trade deadline. Injury bug has hit BAD. Currently 3rd in the division. Haven't made any trades yet, but someone for the PP (26th) would be nice.

          Here are the list of injuries:
          Brandon Pirri - 2 Weeks
          Tomas Fleischmann - 3 Weeks
          Drew Shore - 6 Days
          Joni Pitkanen - 3 Weeks
          Alex Petrovic - 1 Week
          Al Montoya - 5 Days

          Pretty bad. I would love to trade Tomas Kopecky, though. 33-year old has done absolutely nothing.

            Injuries seem much more realistic to me this year. I've had bouts of them and then will be good for a few games.

            Finally getting Bouwmeester back and I'm like a kid in a candy store.

              We beat Quick and the Kings, 5-4 in OT and improve to 14-2 at home. We lose another D, Kevin Shattenkirk and reach out to FA for another D. For now, 21 year old Joel Edmundson will get a taste of the NHL since he doesn't have to clear waivers to go back to the AHL.

              We travel to LA to take on the Kings on their home ice.

                Re: How's Your GM Mode Going?

                Just picked this up, despite everyone saying it has glaring issues and I am enjoying it as I need to play some type of hockey game every year. The one thing that is bugging me the most is I am 6 games in to my Rangers franchise, and the goalies still have all 0 for wins, losses, GAA, and save % during introductions. Does this stat overlay eventually work or should I expect 0s for the rest of the season? Thanks!

                    It's a glitch.. set your lineups from the roster management screen and DO NOT adjust them right before going into a game.

                      Re: How's Your GM Mode Going?

                      So, I took over the Edmonton Oilers and accidentally did pretty well with them in the first year...

                      Ended up 2nd in the West and finished 49-26-7. We ended up beating Colorado in the 1st round of the playoffs 4-2. Then we ended up sweeping Vancouver 4-0 and lost to the Blackhawks in game 7.

                      Both new additions to the squad, Justin Faulk and Brian Campbell lead our team in scoring for the playoffs. Faulk had 1 goal, 14 assists in 17 games and Campbell had 1 goal, 12 assists in 17 games.

                      Viktor Fasth posted a 2.339GAA in the playoffs with a Save Percentage of .925%. We ended up trading Nikita Nikitin and Ben Scrivens to Carolina for Justin Faulk. Faulk is projected to be a Top 4 defenceman for us.

                        Quick question, can you still retain salary on next gen?

                          The Oilers plans for Free Agency:
                          1. Sign a backup veteran for a year (Nabokov, I hope)
                          2. Sign one of Darren Helm/Brad Richards so we have a decent 2nd/3rd line tweener center.
                          3. Trade Benoit Pouliot.

                                We lose 3-1 behind a stingy Kings defense and of course Quick at home is pretty much a brick wall. FA D Brian Lee accepts a one year deal and is immediately inserted as a 3rd line D.

                                We travel to San Jose to take on the Sharks who have been struggling. Tough place to win though. Backup goalie Jake Allen will get the start.
