    Ok.... and our race for the playoffs just got crazier! We are 1 pt behind Badgers now and his final games are vs me on the road tomorrow then you at home for the final game of the season. This has become a pretty intense race for the last 2 playoff spots all of a sudden!

    The more exciting part is Musketeers and Leopards being tied on points in SHL.... yet again near the end of the season. Before this last round we had the same 4 teams to play as well. For those who don't know our history 2 seasons ago we went up to SHL together tied on points and him winning the league by GD.... last season we tied again with Leopards getting home ice advantage for our playoff series by goal differential then winning the series. I am looking to get ahead of him this season!

  5. Correct. You need to keep him on waivers until his contract ends or until someone picks him up. If you release it will be just as if he was on your roster.
  6. It 100% is. It takes almost a complete different team when you go up to survive... and if you are prepared it is tough to be beat as a team going down. I think the worst of it is Bronze and up though.

    Trades

    I have 3 guys on the block on my team, last year of contract and I am ready to move them as soon as the window opens. If you are a team with some cap room in SHL or maybe BHL and want first crack at signing them I will be letting them go for low picks or a decent young player that would fit in my BHL team. Offers will be accepted as they come in if it matches the little bit I am looking for. Also considering moving some of my longer contract veterans in an attempt to get a young team together... message me or send offers. Dangles BHL Minnedosa Prarie Fire

    Trades

    Looking to do a partial rebuild, trying to build to develop over the next 3 seasons in BHL. Lots of high rated players, some would work well in SHL as well. Mainly looking for young players that could turn into a top BHL player in a few seasons or draft picks or quality prospects. http://www.gameplanhockey.com/team?gpid=29 Minnedosa Prarie Fire BHL This is the team. Thanks

    I have put Goddard on the table. Experienced and a great defender. Good passing and shot as well. Odd man out the way my other defenders are playing and not fitting the tactics I want to play. I also want to put the feelers out on my #1 defender Shephard. Top defensive marks as well has having 92 passing rating and is only 31 so still in his prime. I am looking for a true #1 keeper to help anchor my team, would also be willing to look at really really physical defenders or a really physical Centre. Good picks or quality prospects are an option as well if the value is right. Hit me up with offers or messages as I do love do discuss during dealings. Thanks Brent

    You have been the only one to beat me this last quarter... and you have had my number all season. You must have just the right chemistry with your players... you have done a good job. I am just hoping that one loss doesn't cost me a promotion

    Looking at what you have collected you will have a nice solid base in the BHL. You should go ahead and win one more game tomorrow for me though up here

    I accepted your other offer... he will be a stud for you down there. Will also have another look at some point when I know where I am going to be for sure
  13. This problem has just happened to me in Clapper world! Just my last game... the 2 before still open fine

    Blow the dust off this.... got a keeper on a 1 year 83 rated if anyone wants to have a first crack at the re signing. http://www.gameplanhockey.com/goalie?gpid=324 I can't afford his new salary he wants in the 400k range so want to let him go if I can.
  15. You are correct and I don't disagree with your feelings about it being a bit crappy, I am just disagreeing that it is cheating. Using a weak computer trading system to his advantage... absolutely but this should motivate the devs to somehow make it harder for these type of trades to happen rather than kicking him out for cheating. When I think of cheating... the guys who go into a team drop the players then sign into another one to pick them up is what I think of.
  16. I do agree bundling a bunch of picks to get a genuine stud should be tougher, to get a guy like that would likely be a top of the 1st round Gold pick to even come close to getting his quality out of the draft but it isn't cheating. The AI trades just need a bit more work to get it straightened out. Until then can't stop someone from trying whether we feel it is a fair trade or not. The others don't sound bad at all.... salary dumps happen and as long as the guy on waivers is put there by a legit manager then that explains itself as well.

    I seem to be either losing big or winning big this season, could be quite the roller coaster! I saw your loss today Paul... he beat me pretty handily the game before that with stats being what I felt was in my favour. Either we just got rotten luck or he has a "opponent keeper is going to be crap" button

    Manager interaction

    I honestly think there needs to be a message option to send with the transfer. Put it right in the trade so the person knows exactly what the other person is thinking. I use it... but feel the message system is not simple enough to get to someone for the casual player... or a guy who plays part time on a device. Put it in the transfer... you will get more interaction.

    http://www.gameplanhockey.com/player?gpid=3709 Offensive player with good passing skills. Actually played in my top 6 last season but just does not fit my new tactics or plan. Picks preferred but could be convinced with a defensive and physical bottom line Center, or a veteran goalkeeper to be my starting netminder. For a starting keeper I could also give up one of the young 82-84 keepers as part of the deal. I also have a few other guys on the block that are two way players and would fit very well with any BHL team.
  20. Thank you so much Erzac! Confirms where I need to make at least 1 more signing anyway.... not sure Overall will have much impact with my new tactics though... could be and adventure!

    Oh don't worry he will get there.... .probably in 1st when I get 2nd.... tied for points by my losing the last game of the season....
  22. Biggest thing is wages on these star players need to go way up.... bigger wages solves the problem naturally. 90+ players should be the rarity which I understand it isn't but make it too expensive to have more than 2 or 3 and soon the problem will weed itself out.
  23. http://www.gameplanhockey.com/player?gpid=49391 I would like to move this defender. 26 years old 86 rated and can attack just as well as defend. Ideally looking for picks, will look at players as well. I do need a center that can fit in my team and win faceoffs but don't have a lot of salary room right now. Let me know if you are interested and we can work something out.

    Welcome to the game! Trade deadline is just after the end of the season... day 67 I believe and reopens just before the new season starts day 77. All depends what league you are in for playoffs. Gold there is 8 teams in the playoffs for pride. Most other leagues have 4 teams in playoffs position 3 through 6 and two winners from initial rounds there play the division higher for promotion.

    He was my 2nd stringer but he was arguably the better keeper this season. Figured he deserved the shot in a meaningful game. Time to get the kids out for the final game and crank down the tenacity of my players
