Henry's World

In the last post, we finished Year 3 and the rebuild looks to be almost complete. We continue on with the offseason in this post, enjoy! To start off with, I discovered that our AHL team made the playoffs but lost in the first round, so that was about that. In the NHL playoffs, the West came down to the Sharks and the Blackhawks, which saw the Sharks finally making it to the Stanley Cup Finals in a tense seven game series. In the East, Carolina beat Ottawa to advance to the Finals, after Ottawa outlasted the defending champions in the previous round. In the Finals, in the matchup between two teams yet to lift the Cup, it was Carolina who ended the Sharks' dream in a six-game series. Here are the end of season awards. Stanley Cup: Carolina Hurricanes Presidents' Trophy: Chicago Blackhawks Maurice Richard: Alexander Ovechkin, Washington Capitals Ted Lindsay: Jeff Skinner, Carolina Hurricanes Frank J.

Previously on..............the Flyers GM mode. A new alliance was formed between the Flyers and the Sabres, but Mikael Backlund was playing both sides. The majority alliance between James Wisniewski and the Blue Jackets management broke down, and when the dust settled, the Jets held all the cards. 21 and a half seasons remain, and the fans are growing restless in Philly. It's the Year 3 finale, who will win the Stanley Cup and who will be run out of run out of town? Find out today, on the latest installment of GM mode. It's been a bit of a break, but the Flyers GM mode returns for the end of Year 3. When I last left you, we finished a quiet trade deadline that saw Mikael Backlund leave for Buffalo. We headed towards the end of the season knowing that we were already well outside of the playoff race, but we wanted to have a decent finish to the year to help our young players progress. Our final record was 36-40-6, good for 78 points, six more than last year. We scored 231 go

Welcome back! It's been a bit of a break, but I'm back to post more NHL 15 Philly Flyers Be a GM mode. When I last left you, we started Year 3 of our GM mode, with some new faces including future superstar Andre Burakovsky. Today is the trade deadline, will moves be made? With the trade deadline looming, most teams were thinking about big moves and shiny new players. We, on the other hand, had no such ideals. The only player I was actively looking to trade was Mikael Backlund, who had fallen out of favor here in Philly after his acquisition the previous year. We found a trade immediately with the Buffalo Sabres, who have emerged as one of the better teams in the Eastern Conference, led by young superstar Mikhail Grigorenko. Buffalo sent us their second round pick for this year, plus veteran David Moss to balance the books, and we sent the Sabres Backlund and our third round pick from the past draft Aaron Boyd. Now, on the surface, trading Boyd seems a little idiotic, but he h
