Washington Capitals - NHL 14 Dynasty (2023-24) End of Season 
Posted on March 15, 2014 at 07:49 PM.
We finished the Regular season 1st in our division. We had quite a few key injuries, so the stats are pretty misleading. Guys like Zykov, Glebov and Pikkarainen missed quite a bit of time.

Bradley Boulerice had a career high point season though despite missing his linemates, a problem that needs to be addressed.

In the playoffs, we battled hard, fighting off injuries once again.

Round 1. We defeated our main rivals, the Islanders 4-1
Round 2. We beat Carolina in a 4-2 series
Round 3. Buffalo was beat up and our top line was hot. 4-0 series sweep.

The finals was against the Phoenix Coyotes. We were down 2-3 when Bradley Boulerice went out with Post-Concussion Syndrome. Without our leading scorer, our other players stepped up though, winning game 6 5-2, and then game 7 by a score of 6-1.

One big key in the performance of the team was the call up of 3 inexperienced rookies. Toby Gelech, Shawn Forney and Blake Roach all found themselves playing key minutes, with the forwards on the scoring line with Boulerice, since Glebov, Zykov and Ehlers were injured, and Roach playing with Mikael Ohlund.

As you see: the experiment worked

Offseason:

I didn't do much in this offseason. I traded Valentin Zykov and a future 1st to Pittsburgh for young 85 overall centerman Mike Edwards and James Neal, then moved Neal (who was just brought in cause of cap) for a 1st rounder.
