I took the Canucks and the only change I have made so far is trading Ryan Kesler straight up for Brad Stuart. Fucking gold move, because Stuart has 10 assists in 12 games and the Canucks are at 7-3-2. Naslund did nothing in the first 4 games, and now has 11 goals in 12 games. He had a 5 goal game! Oh, and Trevor Linden got the C back and is playing like a god.
The team, just like in real life, started to sputter. I had only one offensive line, really, and once they hit a cold patch then the whole team was down. We went to 8-6-2 before I decided to make a change. Put the Sedins with Linden on line two and had Morrison center for Bulis and Naslund. The powerplay saw Naslund play on both units, with the Sedins and Morrison/Bulis changing out. It worked, just got 4 powerplay goals and crushed them 5 to 1.
