Description

This is a simulated result of what trades/signings were made in our GHL GM League for a simulated off-season.

GM's were tasked with the job of getting their team ready for the season. They had to stay within the salary cap restrictions and must have a maximum of 6 players on the Taxi Squad for injury relief purposes.

Your job is to comment and evaluate how the GM managed their team.

Questions to answer:
1. What was the best move made by the GM?
2. What was the worst move made by the GM?
3. Did the GM improve the team or make them worse?

Thank you for playing! Our GHL GM League is played for a couple of months then posted on CapFriendly for everyone to see the results made by the GM's!

Holy crap on a cracker, what did the Ducks GM have on you! 2 1sts and a former 1st for Zegras is too much, drop Mailloux and it's a lot closer

Jets GM:
1. What was the best move made by the GM?
Not driving home because he obviously smoked alot of crack.

2. What was the worst move made by the GM?
Getting out of bed then making the trade. Should have just slept.

3. Did the GM improve the team or make them worse?
Jets GM made the Habs better

Not sure which deal is worse...?.. The incredible haul for the Habs from the Jets or the Ducks haul from the Habs. Do they cancel each other out..?

Never thought I'd see the day Michael Pezzetta returned value!

Please just stop trading for Zegras in MTL. The scenarios the Ducks would accept have been talked about hundreds of times over the past few months. This isn’t one of them
