as many of you now know, I recently acquired nhl 06 to replace the broken copy of nhl 2k5...so, naturally, I didn't feel proper without creating my own team, and I did, and entered dynasty mode with it, here's the lines...I think it's accurate
Line One, RW-Keith Tkachuk, C-Joe Thornton, LW- Martin St. Louis
Line Two- RW- *name* Tanguay, C- Pavel Datsyuk, LW- Brett Hull
Line Three- RW- Jochen Hecht, C-Mike Modano, LW- Glen Murray
Line Four- RW- Ray Whitney, C- Steve Yzerman, LW- Adam Deadmarsh
D. Line One- Zdeno Chara, Brian Leetch
D. Line Two- *name* Gonchar, Kyle Mclaren
D. Line Three- Danny Markov, *name* Markov (different)
*doesn't feel like posting the power play and penalty kill*
Extra Attacker- Joe Thornton, Martin St. Louis
Goalie- Miika Kiiprusoff (formerly, traded to Nashville for Jan Lasak and 1st Round Draft Pick), Olaf Kolzig, Jan Lasak (traded from Nashville).
My first offensive line four started with names like Christen, Guggisberg, and Rolston, but they got mad at me for little time, and I traded Rolston and Guggisberg to...some team, for Steve Yzerman and a second round draft pick, and then picked up Deadmarsh and Whitney from free agency.
I've been considering something. Under my current practice schedule, Olaf Kolzig's rating is 98 and Jan Lasak is 88, but I've been thinking, if I win the Stanley Cup (currently 15-1-0-1, first in the league in points and power plays, 29th in penalty kill), I'm going to drop Kolzig and start rebuilding my goalie lineup from there. some hockey fan, take into account the fact that I just picked up a free angent with incredible potential (90 potential, age 24) for goal, and Jan Lasak has a 92 potential rating, higher even than Martin St. Louis' potential rating (72) considering his current overall (95). I'm hoping by the end of the season, the new free agent will be much better, along with Lasak, and a college senior I've been tracking through his season.
I also think I'm gonna drop out the third line of DefenseĀ ( the two Markovs) for rookies from the draft.
Those of you who are hockey fans, let me know if I'm a good General Manager
