Rick Grimes Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 GM's I know of that aren't filling there farms. Romo Russian Rocket Majical ( he gets a break for now ) MGK Inane I hope the penalty is extremely harsh. The only "reasonable" excuse for not dressing a full roster would be that you just made a trade and don't have enough AHLers to fill out a roster; even then. That can be rectified so fast that there isn't much of an excuse for going more than a game or two without doing your lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AriGold Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 STHS as a whole is a big game, NHL, AHL, filling positions etc. I think the AHL team is as important as the NHL team therefor this is my thought. If you have more then 1 Unknown player for an extended period of time then your top NHL player will be suspended until your team is filled and you start paying attention too all aspects of this game.

I agree that the AHL is as important as the NHL; however - What good is this now though? The warnings were dished out at the beginning of the season. Time to pay up for being lazy.

Crom! Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I've been trying to claim as many players as I can so that I can send down all the AHL caliber players. Unfortunately Kris Russel, who had no business being claimed, was claimed. I can only do so much as agm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmen81 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Well it's obviously too late to do anything about it now, but next season this does need to be addressed. I will even volunteer my services to make sure people have full AHL rosters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH, I'd say any AHL teams that are in the playoffs with Unknown players should be automatically kicked to the bottom of their division/conference. This way they lose out on some valuable AHL prospect development time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have the players, but just choose not to dress them, then yes they have no excuse. Also haven't been paying attention too much to this, but have the goalies been getting off nights for some teams? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some have, some haven't I'm thinking of spiking down EN & DU of goalies with the next rerates that get played too much to force GM's to run 2 goalies for balance.

Dion Phaneuf Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Why not just enforce the proposed goalie rule that was discussed this past off-season? Teams still have a chance to play their back-up before the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Grimes Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I wanted to ask everybody's opinion on something regarding re-rates if a player is firing the way he "should be" Should he just be left alone? Risking a "re-rate" and having a player that you relied upon this season suddenly become a walking turd doesn't sound too good. What I was thinking was being much MUCH more subtle with re-rates this time; with some exceptions to try and get players playing somewhat like their real life counter-parts(Try to get Stamkos back up to 40+ Goals, Cory Perry not being god of PIMs, etc.) I just don't see the point in touching players like Kronwall, Kane & Crosby when they're already dominating the league in the ways that they should be.

gmen81 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Why not just enforce the proposed goalie rule that was discussed this past off-season? Teams still have a chance to play their back-up before the playoffs. Took a look at what teams could probably play their backups. Carolina Chicago Nashville Rangers Philadelphia Pittsburgh Should be a rule where a team can't play a goalie 68 of 70 games and then all of a sudden play there backup a bunch of games at the end. A team like Pittsburgh can play his backup, because he will probably win the presidents trophy and it won't matter A team like Philly can use there backup now, because they are out of the playoffs, so it won't matter there either. You could almost accuse them of tanking if this was the case. However a team like Carolina who is in a battle for a playoff spot can't really afford to play his backup right now, so forcing him to play his backup might hurt his chances.

canucklax Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I think the rule was in place, and it was up to gm's when to play them. Some want to push the guy till he's out of gas, others will try to match vs a poorly playing team. Its the gm's fault if the games limit is coming up at the wrong time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
