With not a single player under 65 OVR why are they under achieving?  Is it a chemistry problem? The lines aren't set up right? the schedule? Only Giygas and Sebastian Ball Jr are players that currently have over a point per game. Giygas is currently is leading the team in points with 5 goals and 13 assist for 18 points. Not a single player is a minus, Ball Jr, Lefevre, and Yumalatopinto currently being the closest to a minus with +2. The downfall to the Bears season this year? Possibly all the penalties they are taking. As a team they have taken a total of 177 PIMs. That's averaging 11 PIMs a game or 5.5 minors a game. With the PK coming in at 82.19% they have killed off approx. 145 minutes of penalties. I think I did that right 0.82x177? or should have I just did 73 PK attempts against 13 PK goals which would be 73-13= 60. 60x2= 120 PIMs killed off. Whatever it's only for 1 TPE. Whatever the reason for this slow start, hopefully it gets turned around soon.

I know we're usually pretty lenient with these, but...this isn't even close to even 100 words.

With the stats removed my word count comes up with 49. Even if we included the player names which are obviously copy and pasted I doubt this would even hit 75.

 

It's not hard to write 50 more words stamkos, hell I've probably written nearly that much in this response alone.

 

Edit: Yup, 48 words...

Maybe I'm just crazy fast at both typing and thinking on the fly. But the fact that people like this can't post 100 words is just mind boggling to me. I post more than a hundred words probably per post on a regular basis and I do so in easily less than a few minutes. Obviously I don't mean to offend anyone here because at the end of the day some people simply aren't as skilled at this type of thing. But 100 words isn't a big chore. 

 

On the plus side Stamkos I'm sure the league would be willing to let you actually add some real content to this to earn the 1 TPE. There is actually an interesting discussion to be had regarding the struggles of the Bears this season, potentially to do with the player make up and chemistry regarding the builds of the different players on the team. While I doubt New York retains the playoff position all season, it could be far more of a race than originally predicted.

Yea just look at this Stammy, Devise just wrote a god damn Media Spot right here. 

[Higgins 3,617]

Honestly I think this fan 590 only needs two words...

Bears and suck (burn)

[Beketov 8,642]

Seriously though he already included this in his update…1 TPE or not this is not update worthy.

[Squinty 116]

Can you all relax a little? I'm sure one post telling him that there aren't enough words would be more than adequate in getting the message across. Give him time to come back on here and edit this. He updated immediately after he posted, so it's not like that's out of the ordinary or anything.

Since when the hell did you become the voice of reason? I'm surprised you stopped impersonating Kesler long enough to make a post that valid to be honest.

We shouldnt be taking Devise's word on anything to do with post length tbh

Just the NY results but like many have said the sim builds them up just to screw them over at the last minute. Plus how many cups do you have? are you squinty rich?

I have full faith that one day Karsten Olsen(A) D 100.00 99 40 40 99 80 99 99 77 40 99 90 99 67 55 40 50 35 82 will play well. One day.
