West update:

Habibi's regular season warriors



Twin Cinema's we don't need no stinkin buyout



johnfw50's Kings (does he still post?)



Rutkowki's Yotes (are really benefiting from a free overrated Duclair)



Jordan's Hawks (are gonna get done in by his 2nd line pretty soon)



Laderhan's why the heck won't PK shoot more (because D don't score nearly enough in EHM)



Danny LaFever's Oilers are seriously loving bizarre how is this team in the playoffs



Boxc's Ducks are getting killed by Clarkson and co



Verv's Canucks are seriously going to miss the playoffs if Jim Benning doesn't trade for a backup goalie (which apparently he can't use his 1st or 2nd round pick for)



lazerwolf's Wild can't loving score



Stickarts's Blues should probably actually be worse



tofe's Jets need to start burying it and stop starting Greiss



menno's Flames really don't look that bad (if they could get a few loving saves)



Boomer's Holy Crap




Another update tomorrow probably (with a WJC bonus round). I'm also running AHL/CHL in full detail if anyone wants an update there (or just a prospect update in general, all other leagues will generate stats).

Lipstick Apathy
Fake Shane Doan is atrocious. As is fake Mike Fisher. And fake Tyler Toffoli. And fake Justin Williams.

fake Richard Panik is ok though so there's that.

e: and fake Koivu also sucks. Seriously I thought this team had some issues, but scoring ought not to be one of them.

Doan, Fisher and Williams all have solid ratings. It's surprising they're doing bad (but it could continue if EHM age regression kicks in). Koivu and Toffoli are rated quite well and almost certainly will turn it around.

e: Actually Koviu is a little worse than I thought but I've seen Toffoli finish top ten in scoring but maybe that was in 2015-2016.

That team also has Bishop who routinely leads Tampa to the ECF/SCF in my normal sims in Year 1 so I don't know what's up with them.

Zbad second line center is paying dividends.
I think these Rangers will have to go full rebuild but Lundqvist is too damned good and handsome to give them a shot at McDavid or Eichel.

Does Bickell have any fights? If not it seems like he's close to being a minus and taking a penalty every game with no positive contributions. Also being outscored by Marc-Andre Cliche haaaaa.

I hope we go through the draft after I win the lottery.

I need to see this team's lineup, they should be right in the McEichel race.

Well I guess it would be more reasonable if you swapped Booth and Brunner's stat lines with Vrbata and Nielsen?

At work but it's even more incredible because Karlsson hasn't been that great. He's usually on a 60-70p pace.

January 1st Update

About halfway through the season, stab's Habs have taken a turn for the worse, dropping all the way from first place to out of the playoffs. Vjeff's Red Wings are back in but Paulo's Leafs are right on their tail, and the Canadiens, Capitals, Blue Jackets, and Sabres are all still in contention. There's a little more consolidation in the West. Habibi's Sharks continue to roll, although the weakness of the Central may allow the Jets to knock out the Hawks. The Avs are only four points out!



The Semin legend continues


Murphy is still available in our other draft folks this is surely a realistic representation of his abilities.


Kuznetsov is turning it on but it hasn't been enough for the Canes


Holtby is keeping the Blues away from locking up McEichel.


We have a few interesting trades.


POTM


McDavid is hurt and is missing the WJC, but Canada is doing fine in the group stage:




Only one real major injury to report:


We have some coaching changes in Carolina and Toronto, as well as a hiring in Colorado:


and in case anyone was mildly interested, here's what the AHL points race looks like:


I'll do the team updates later tonight.

Habibi
Dec 8, 2004

We have the capability to make San Jose's first Cup Champion.

The Sharks could be that Champion.
Yeah boy. Plex needs to pick his old rear end up and get back to scoring. Down to just a ppg pace? Unacceptable!

Precambrian Video Games

How did Semin not win player of the month once and who the hell is John Van Boxmeer besides the guy who's gonna tank us to McEichel?

Also no teams below .400, at least my rookies are scoring and my team is respectably bad instead of Buffalo-level dreadful.

This is what happens when you disrespect Cam Neely
yikes that is one ugly goal differential for the Sabres. I think no small part of that is my goaltenders having a sub .900 combined save percentage last time I looked, but this is the point I'd be looking to sell if I were the Sabres. Good run in the last 10 games or not.
