Although I know @Advantage wrote an article highlighting this, I'm still not sure how skewed things were by the fact that most of the league's goalies (except Stopko) this decade were still on their entry-level deals before last season while the slightly older crop wasn't anything special TPE-wise (Iseult, Sterling, Carison). I don't know how much of that is due to attributes and how much it is just having more players. We basically spent 60 seasons with 3-4 non-playoff teams per year who you beat 8/9 times out of 10 because they had 6 players, none of them particularly good. Now the worst teams in the league run 2 lines filled with 400-500 TPA guys. Every team has a competent goalie as well, not CPUs or placeholders like most rebuilding teams used to.

That is the other one in my top three at which point you start to run out of serious options other than maybe northern Italy. Or I guess France are OK at hockey. Or Denmark. My understanding was Moscow was exempt last time because in theory we were part of the same expansion with Malmo (just a season apart) so I think we’d both be in it this time around, especially if it was two teams.

Yikes we got peppered.

Return to Germany is probably in my top 3 but still holding out hope for Prague 35 seasons since the first expansion.

But in reality is there much of a different in sim between 1350 and 700 TPE? Think 700 is enough to hit 90 in key attributes, anything above that is a luxury really.

Pretty sure, I suspect many seasons that’s the same thing so might not be obvious.

Correct comrade.

No, playoff teams are always in reverse order of elimination (same round eliminations sorted by standings).

You can come all you want.

Seattle literally got nothing of value.

@Will I feel like we should somehow make it an automatic post when it happens in the portal cuz I know Kovalchuk moved to forward for example solely through doing finance and that's a pretty big event I feel.

Just bought Still Kicking pls fix me

Average overall but somehow have Canada's number ok lol

Needed that.

Looks like Kovalchuk has moved to forward which is odd since he looked to be on pace for the HOF on defence.

Yup

Wat

Tbf no draft picks = more cap space so it’s a genius plan.

Davos picks should have been later than Riga's since Davos eliminated Riga in the playoffs. Also no idea why Davos and NY picks were the wrong order around solely in the 2nd round. Nothing you can do now but I didn't want to be the only one living with this knowledge.
