Started a new game as Calgary, seeing if I can keep the team competitive while trading most of the big contracts away. I can't remember exactly what my trades were, but I moved out Iggy, Tanguay, Jokinen, Stajan, Bourque, Stempniak and Bouwmeester plus my first round pick in 2012, and I added Pietrangelo, Berglund, Bobby Ryan, Jordan Staal, Bergfors, and Bryan Bickell. I think I am forgetting someone. My line up looks like...
Backlund / Staal / Ryan
Glencross / Berglund / Bergfors
Bickell / Morrison / Comeau
Ivanans / Moss / Jackman
Pietrangelo / Hannan
Butler / Giordano
Sarich / Babchuk
Kipprusoff / Karlsson
So far I am 5-1. Kipper has played out of his mind, but I've gotten good production from my top two lines. Backlund has surprised, and Pietrangelo is playing at a point per game pace. I also have a ton of cap space after the season with Hannan, Sarich, Babchuk, Morrison and more all becoming UFAs. I almost want to skip to the end of the season to see how much younger and better I can make this team.
