Next update will be the All-Star break, with NHL standings and updated projections.

Enforcer ranked 3rd?

Toronto, you know what to do!

Also, did you update the rosters to deadline rosters before the configuration?

I manually updated the rosters to include all trades that happened after the last roster update, as far as I know.

I also added a handful of NCAA prospects that aren't included in the game.

Behind the scenes info: The ranking accuracy is based on the skill of the Scouting Team of the team being controlled by the user in the Be-A-GM. No teams start out with an accurate scouting team. They have to be leveled up.

Nah. It's preseason. There's no rankings to be had. All-Star Break gets an NHL standings update.

I'm pretty sure it's a typo. I messed up which league a couple goalies were in. I think I forgot to change that.

Me too. Think I'm gonna pick up my own BAP I was working on a while back or maybe start a new one. Has anyone played as a goalie? Seems like actually playing games would take forever.

I'm also intrigued. I was thinking my punchyman would end up being like Tanner Glass, but it looks like he's actually worth it.

We need nicknames for our players as soon as we figure how the first half of the season goes.

I'm praying Longrod doesn't go to the Avs or Blackhawks. He probably will though.


Guide to the Longrod family and friends

John Longrod-The hopeful breadwinner of the family. Not much brain cells left, but has a very emotional side. Writes poems about punchmans. Likes to be silky smooth with the puck when he can. His three favorite teams are Minnesota, Boston, and St. Louis.
Jerry Longrod-NASCAR Truck Series driver, brother of John. Quite intelligent and very passive agressive that his father seems to care more about John then him. Admitted to hospital due to small fractures of the sternum and pelvis.
Jeff Longrod-Former North Stars player, advocate of disgustingly good dekes. Seems to have left some mark on John but has the ability to actually type and write coherently. Passive-aggressive. Wanted John to go play for the Bulldogs or Gophers instead of CHL
Takara Longrod-The mother of the Longrod boys, Japanese national, makes good cake. Hates hockey.
Susanne-John's love interest. Bringer of pain and sorrow.


God drat how much did I actually think this through :stonk:

A reminder, that the game does in-fact use the lottery. So, just because you are 30th, doesn't mean you get the #1 pick.

I'm glad that Felix is no longer 1st. It doesn't make sense for a goalie to be projected first.

Also, it's better to angry tweet about not being first.
