Buffalo must have signed a free agent or something, because now my trade with them doesn't work anymore. So, I'm now trading Leino to Philadelphia:


:flyers

Leino (80 overall, 31 years old, 3 yrs @ $4.5M)


:cbj

3rd Round Pick
Dennis McCauley (64 overall, 28 years old, throw-in so Philly won't have too many skaters)


I don't think this needs to be approved since the other trade already got three approvals.

cpu trade:

breaking:
it appears as though the islanders and the panthers have come to terms on a deal. awaiting further confirmation, but it appears as though

islanders trades:

teddy purcell (28 yrs, 4 grey *, 81 ov, 2*5.605 mil)

florida trades:

daniel carcillo (29 yrs, 3.5 grey *, 75 overall, 1*0.945)

"if this is the deal, good on florida for getting a major upgrade on their right wing. purcell will come in and play on the second line right behind williams. with the next best nhl ready rw being steve bernier, they took advantage of the islander's cap situation to add one for cheap"

"yeah, and for the islanders, they get, as you mentioned, cap relief for someone that can still come in and play on their weak lw. the islanders add a lot of grit with this trade, something they are lacking on the left side."
have i passed my permitted role playing allowance for the year?

Approved just because of the write up.

I approved the trade so it must be cap issues. Ill approve this one.

Yeah, when I sent the trade offer through, it said they would be $0.5M over the cap and it was approved. But it sent me a message saying that it was declined due to cap issues. Now the trade would apparently put them $2M over the cap. They must have signed a free agent.



--------

Here's what my roster will look like for this season. I plan on making a couple more trades, but likely only involving non-roster players. Unless someone wants to propose a blockbuster.

Christopher Higgins (82) - Mika Zibanejad (82, 4 stars, "C") - Alex Galchenyuk (82, 4.5 stars)
Brandon Saad (79, 3.5 stars) - Matt Stajan (82) - Carter Camper (80, 3.5 stars)
Kaspars Daugavins (78, 3 stars) - Mike Santorelli (77) - Nick Palmieri (78, 3.5 stars)

I'm currently offering Paul Stastny for some draft picks to free up cap space. If anyone is interested please message me through here or Xbox.

CPU trade:

To Philly:

Phaneuf (89 overall, 29 years old, 4.5 star white)

To Phx:

Granlund (78 overall, 22 years old, 4.5 stars gold)

I am 5 mil over the cap, and Philly has 22 mil in space. The main motive is cap space.

Phaneuf is 6-7 years older, but 89 overall is good even for a 4.5 star guy and they already have a #1.

They have the space and the positional need.

The highest I've seen Granlund is 88, so I'll approve this. Fair trade.

Kreider (85)- Richards (87)- Mursak (82)
Pacioretty (83)- Hamill (84)- Read (81)
Spalling (82)- Johansson (80)- Kassian (80)
Some combo of Colborne (79) Granlund (78) Pither (79) Leblanc (79) Torres (75) and Smith-Pelley (75)

Subban (86)- Pietrangelo (88)
Whitney (86)- Enstrom (84)
Summers (81)- Tanev (83)

Lack (84)

I greatly improved my depth from the start, though I still don't have a true elite winger.

Overall, I think my team is a little better than the 100 point team they were last year.

Is everyone done with the off season? I can sim to the start of the season?

Joider (who is sitting next to me) is still trying to trade Paul Stastny to get under the cap. I think he's negotiating with someone currently, and if that falls through he has to trade him to the CPU. So he needs more time.

I'm done though.

Sorry, I should have asked, what teams are available?

All eastern teams except NYI.

Will you take the league serious and not just forget about? If you decide you have no interest, please leave the league and not just stop playing without telling me. It ruins the league for everyone.

Here's the thing, my parents are divorced, so I can't play when I'm at my dad's place, typically for 4-5 days. I can still talk trades on Private Message on here, though.

Theres a chance you will miss re-signing and/or free agency.

Free agency can be done via the iOS app, but yeah you'll have your hands tied during the re-signing period. Which is awfully silly, but :(

CPU Trade Proposal:

:wings

Dmitrj Jaskin (69 overall, 21 years old, 4 yellow stars)


:nucks

C Paul Stastny (85 overall, 28 years old)
2015 2nd Round Pick


I need to get rid of Stastny's salary to get under the cap. Vancouver needs a guy like Stastny because without him their best two centers are Ryan O'Reilly and Zack Smith.


Note to Benny: I accidentally sent them an offer with my 2020 2nd round pick instead of the one from 2015. Please make sure you approve the one that includes my 2015 pick!
