![]() ![]() He said it still hasn't really sunk in, a "humbling" number that his teammates deserve some credit for. Speaking of stats, Stamkos follows up a season in which he became just the 20th NHL player to rack up 60 goals. "His stats are going to go down for sure." "It was fun setting up the old man," Stamkos said of his father, Chris. Louis on a line in a controlled scrimmage was quite the change of pace from playing with his dad's buddies, who will no doubt miss the All-Star. "It was a lot of fun and something I'll cherish forever."īut with the lockout over, Stamkos was excited to get back into a more "competitive" situation Tuesday, rejoining the Lightning at its informal skate at the Ice Forum. "It was a blast, those guys loved it - they don't get a chance to play with NHL guys very often," Stamkos said. That included Stamkos, 22, playing in his father's pick-up hockey league every Thursday night, when he and former Lightning forward Steve Downie would mix it up with a group that varied as much in age (22-65) as ability. I have Calvin Pickard in my minors who is a 4 star prospect but I don't know how long it will take him to be ready to play.BRANDON | As frustrating as the NHL lockout was for Lightning star center Steven Stamkos, it gave him an opportunity to do things in his hometown of Toronto he normally wouldn't get to do. The only position I'm worried about moving forward is goalie. Valtteri Filppula - Added at trade deadline But this time I was able to get him for Mark McNeill, Jordan Weal and 3 first round picks. What's funny about that is my GM rep with the Ducks was horrible from me trying to get Perry before the season started. I just reached the trading deadline and saw that the Ducks had put Corey Perry on the trade block so I snagged him. I gave up Paul Stastny, Troy Rutkowski and my 2013, 20 1st round picks to get John Tavares. Also pay attention to your relationship with the teams gm as that can impact trade value. I should mention that guys that aren't on the block but with low trade value don't require too much of an overpay much of the time. in the 2nd year of your franchise become easily attainable. Sorry that I'm a year behind but I just really need to help with making trades that don't completely leave me empty handed.Īlso guys 35+ become available as well, so chara, datsyuk, etc. How much more sweeter does it get than 3 1st round picks? Ugh! ![]() ![]() Any GM in real life would be STUPID to not accept this trade but they tell me that they could live with the trade if I "sweetened" it a bit. This deal would be giving the Sens major cap relief while giving them 3 future 1st round picks. Steve Downie (81 OVR), Duncan Siemens (66 OVR but major potential and trade value (The trade value bar is over a 3rd of the way filled up) and 3 1st round picks for Jason Spezza (87 OVR), Kyle Turris (80 OVR), Daniel Alfredsson (84 OVR but 39 years old), Filib Kuba (82 OVR but 35 years old), and Sergei Gonchar (83 OVR but 38 years old).ĭowine, Siemens, and Spezza all have 3 years left on their contract. Heck even when I've traded to make a trade that looks totally lopsided in the other team's favor I still can't make the trade. The trading in this game is almost impossible to get a fair trade. It had been years since I've played an NHL game and wanted to get back in the flow and it was cheap at Gamestop so I picked it up. ![]()
