NHL 15- Philly Flyers- Preseason Year 1

So we start GM mode with a look at the roster we have. Take a look at the lines.

Forwards
Simmons(86)-Giroux(90)-Voracek(90)
Raffl(81)-Lecavalier(85)-Read(83)
Umberger(81)-Schenn(84)-Couturier(83)
Rinaldo(78)-White(80)-Gordon(77)

Defensemen
Del Zotto(85)-MacDonald(85)
Coburn(85)-Streit(84)
Timonen(83)-Schenn(82)
Scratched- Grossman(82)

Goalies
Mason(85)
Emery(83)

The powerplay lines and penalty kill lines are just the recommended lines, I don't think they matter because we want to make some trades.

Speaking of trades, I wanted to get going right off the bat. I was looking at Vinny Lecavalier and RJ Umberger as forwards we could trade. I was also looking at Mark Streit. I ended up trading both Lecavalier and Streit plus a 2016 3rd for Swiss Superstar Filip Forsberg from the Nashville Predators. I definitely feel we got the better end of the deal, with Forsberg looking amazing in real life. We also got Mathias Ekholm, which is nice for defensive cover. We also traded RJ Umberger to the Detroit Red Wings for a 2015 3rd round pick. We gave up a 2015 4th round pick and ate a 1 million dollars of RJ's contract, but I didn't want him and we have cap space, so I thought it was worth it. We also signed veteran playmaker Ray Whitney to a 1 year contract, just for forward cover. Here are the new lines.

Forwards
Forsberg(86)-Giroux(90)-Voracek(90)
Simmons(86)-Schenn(84)-Read(83)
Raffl(81)-Couturier(83)-Whitney(82)
Rinaldo(78)-White(80)-Gordon(77)

Defensemen
Del Zotto(85)-MacDonald(85)
Coburn(85)-Timonen(83)
Grossmann(82)-Schenn(82)

Goalies
Mason(85)
Emery(83)

The special teams are just the best players, but here they are if you're interested.

PP
Voracek-Giroux-Simmons
Del Zotto-MacDonald

PP 4-Man
Giroux-Voracek
Del Zotto-MacDonald

South Park "Not Funny" Review

Good night, amateur trolls that trolled a troll and trolled themselves into a troll, brothers. With one episode to go in the season, South Park has remained consistently funny and on-point with their humor, though I worry about how their going to wrap all of this up. There are a good six to seven ongoing storylines right now, and only one episode to finish off a few of them. There was no clear focus this week, but I'll start where the episode ended, with Gerald's troll-based storyline. It's pretty satisfying to see the Troll Hunter's massive revelation; that he is, in fact, just another troll, bent on world destruction. Even Gerald couldn't find the humor in his master plan, as the Troll Hunter is truly in a league of his own. With the world on the brink of war, the trolling has truly begun, as the Troll Hunter went to work on his own employees and the other trolls, though why they had to be naked for that is beyond me. Kyle is always a sucker for saving the ...

Rules -Each brand will have five draft picks, ten picks total. -Champions are not eligible to be drafted. -Tag teams/stables can be drafted as a unit or individuals, depending on what the GM wants and what the wrestler wants. -Thanks to winning Brand Warfare, SmackDown will get the first pick, while Raw will get the last pick.

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...
