Rebuild wBadContracts

Created by: jksc0831
Team: 2020-21 Buffalo Sabres
Initial Creation Date: Feb. 20, 2021
Published: Feb. 21, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Focus on acquiring mostly B-level prospects, early picks, and bad contracts that last three years. Three Phases:
Phase 1: play the kids along with the bad contracts and make the kids earn their way up. Don't sign FAs (no one will want to come to a rebuilding BUF anyways), and the cheap contracts will balance against the expensive.
Phase 2: When the bad contracts are in their final year, trade them for late picks if you can, as by this time some of the prospects should start to bear fruit.
Phase 3: After three years, sign the prospects who are golden to contracts using the freed up money from expiring bad contracts.

This is ridiculous


I was actually going to say it looked like a lot of work. Crazy mental gymnastics regarding both finances and team composition.

...well it's ridiculous too but wow, I suspect that would have taken me over an hour to create.

yeah, i had a lot of spare time on my hands over the weekend... I actually tried to take Lucic because he fits perfectly, but I limited it to only contracts without trade/move protection. Nobody wants to go to BUF when it is rebuilding with bad contracts.
