eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted February 13, 2011 This topic is inspired by the "30 and under" topic from the other day. I was thinking basically, if you were the GM, and could pick from all of the teams the players that were on your team, who would you have? As the idea is that you are the GM of an NHL team rather than a fantasy team, here are the rules: - You must have at least 3 "veteran" players who are aged 33 or older. This is to simulate players who have been on the team for a while and/or were acquired for their experience. - You can have no more than 4 players on entry-level contracts. - You may not exceed the NHL salary cap for this season of $59.4m. - Your goal is to create a "sustainable" roster, so picking 20 top-end players who all turn RFA or UFA at the end of the season would Chicago you. My roster: FORWARDS Zetterberg 6.7m Datsyuk 6.084m Getzlaf 5.325m Stamkos 3.725m Filppula 3m Hudler 2.875m Hanzal 1.8m Kopecky 1.2m Brouwer 1.025m Helm 912,500 Giroux 821,667 EL Eaves 750k D.Miller 650k DEFENSE Lidstrom 6.2m Weber 4.5m Enstrom 3.75m Doughty 3.475m J.Johnson 1.425m Yandle 1.2m Lilja 750k GOALTENDERS Quick 1.8m Osgood 1,417 ~59.34 in total cap hit. With most core players signed on long term. Lidstrom may retire soon but that opens up some cap space to help cover raises in the next few years for Weber, Quick, Stamkos, and Johnson.

That would certainly be a great team (even with Kopy), but you'd also be looking at like $16-18M in raises next year. Not exactly sustainable. Then again, no team like this really could be.

Nevermind 363 Report post Posted February 13, 2011 fixed :P :P Not quite. Hudler needs to replace that Lidstrom guy. Otherwise the team's a bit lackluster defensively. Hell, even Kopecky would be better than Lidstrom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
