Your BE A GM dynasty..

[sabres32]

alright its christmas and im bored so i wanna know how all your be a gm mode's are going..

first off im the Buffalo Sabres. My first season i finished 4th in the east only to lose to the Thrashers (who won the cup!) in the second round. The whole entire season i only made 3 trades, that being Nathan Gerbe to the Bruins(he played for Boston College) for a first round pick. Mark Mancari (who i brought up, and he owned the NHL) which the Redwings offered ME a 1st and 3rd round pick (real dumb) and i somehow traded Marek Zagrapan to the Sens for a 1st round pick. do the math...3 first round picks.

Once the draft came that left me with the 14th 15th and 19th overall picks. I picked up a LW (14th overall pick, 76 overall rating) who this season in 53 games has 41 points. with the 15th overall pick i took a RW who i brought up and in 32 games he has 21 points. And with the 19th overall pick i chose a defensemen who i just brought up and in ten games he has 11 points (this guy is going to be unbelieveable due to his potential being real high...and a side note they actually say his name!!!??)

Only free agent pickup i made was home town boy Pat Kane who in 53 games has 55 points (decent).

now i play on superstar and i originally used flyermanias settings but i had to boost it up a few notches to make it harder. as of now i have a crazy record of 38-10-05 first place in the league. i guess i can say i brought the cardiac kids back because with all these rookies and young guys i have been tearing it up.

so far in my second season i traded Mike Weber(80 overall) to the canucks for a good prospect (75overall) and a 2nd round pick. i really dont think ill be looking to trade anyone away, but as of now i have 3 GM blackberry phones unlocked so im open to accepting trades from the computer.

anyways thats all i got its pretty fun.

I have recently started a be a GM mode with the Toronto Maple Leafs. My record is (18-11-7), and I am in 4th place in the Eastern Conference.
-Here is a record of my major Gm moves

-Traded Jiri Tlusty (78 overall), Justin Pogge (73 overall), and a 4th round pick to the Boston Bruins for Phil Kessel (84 overall)

- Signed free agent Kris Chucko (76 overall) I put him in the Marlies to help their offense

-Claimed Stephen Valiquette (77 overall) off waivers, sent him down to minors to help with poor goaltending

- Traded James Reimer (71 overall) to Detroit for a 2nd round pick

-Traded Niklas Hagman (80 overall) to Chicago for Patrick Sharp (83 overall)

Sharp and Kessel are really working well together on the first line

I fineshed my first season with montreal 53-20-9 and was first in the east on ly to get knocked out in the second round of the playoffs.

do you guys play all your games yourself or do you simulate some?

i did a fantasy draft BEAGM with the TB Lightning...my goal was to grab young players with potential - i made a number of trades:

R. Nash - S. Stamkos - P. Kane
N. Filatov - E. Kane - J. Voracek
R. Mason - M. Duchene - (can't recall)
F. Brunnstrom - A. Esposito - N. Zherdev

i ended up playing 1 1/2 months of the season...was last in goals scored, and first in goal-tending (steve mason). i wanted higher scoring games so i tweaked my sliders and decided that i would simulate to the playoffs - ended up being a 4th seed and beat montreal 4-2. i am now playing against the ny islanders and am trailing 3-1 (after being down 3-0).

i made a lot of trades, but wanted to get the team developed so i would limit moves in the future. i always enjoy doing fantasy draft seasons, starting over entirely and allowing each team to rebuild. i typically move my draft picks for young players i know. basically i want a team that is fast with some toughness...

Depends on the teams for me. It it's some team I don't care about like Atlanta or Flordia, I'll sim, but if it's divisional, I always play them.

I did a fantasy draft with Detroit. I've been playing 1 game and then I'll sim the next 4.

First season I went 51-27-4 and lost in the second round, second season I went 54-24-4 and lost in the finals and my third season I went 45-32-5 and managed to win the cup. I'm currently 12-7-1 and in 5th place in the West in my fourth season.

My team looks like this right now:

I. Kovalchuk (91) T. Oshio (86) J. Van Riemsdyk (87)
C. Higgins (83) A. Cogliano (86) D. Stafford (83)
T. Tatar (81) N. Gerbe (83) G. Latendresse (82)
