Re: How's your franchise going? NHL 19 Edition
Started up a St. Louis Blues franchise with the 1-30-19 roster and latest tuner.
Salary Cap/CPU Trades/Player Morale - all ON, the rest are OFF
Simulation/AS/8 min/Fighting 2/2 - Penalties 4/4/Trade difficulty - Hard/Auto Scouting - Both/Fog of war - Off
Trades:
LW Alexander Steen (84) to Vegas for LW Max Pacioretty (84)
Steen has become stale and complacent here in St. Louis, so he'll get a change of scenery in Vegas and not only do we get a comparable replacement, we also save about $1.5M in salary.
LW Jaden Schwartz (86) to NY Rangers for their 2019 1st round draft pick
Even at 26 I don't see Jaden in our long term plans. The previous GM traded away a bunch of draft picks and I'm going to work hard on getting them back. It's a great start getting a 1st round pick back for the 2019 draft. Bonus is getting rid of his $5.5M contract.
That's just a start and as the season goes on, I'll evaluate our younger players, hopefully resign our rising stars and prepare for the 2019/20 drafts by getting more picks. Many of our core players need to show me they want to be here in St. Louis or they will get shipped out.
2018/19 Starting Lineup:
Pacioretty (84) - [C] O'Reilly (88) - [A] Tarasenko (90)
Perron (84) - Schenn (86) - Fabbri (80)
Maroon (81) - Bozak (82) - Sundqvist (77)
Sanford (76) - Thomas (77) - Barbashev (78)
Parayko (85) - [A] Pietrangelo (88)
Dunn (82) - Edmundson (81)
Bouwmeester (80) - Gunnarsson (79)
Allen (82)
Binnington (78)
* I'm going to play key games and simulate the rest.
