Flyers EHM Franchise(1998-99db Simmed to Current Season)

[Nickflyers]

No clever name. Simmed the 1998-99 db from TBL to June 1st 2016. The next few posts will be what has happened over the course of the sim. Where did Crosby end up? Did the Leafs win a Cup during their powerhouse years? Who busted? What players had amazing careers(Unlike their RL counterparts)?

After I get those sims out of the way I'll start posting the Flyers team that I will take over.

Flyers Outlook:

So our top line is Pacioretty-Crosby-Hartnell. Patches(52-56-108) and Sid(43-62-105) were 1-2 in NHL scoring while Hartnell(24-64-88) was 14th. So the Top line will run the show. Sid is signed to a 5yr/$2.8M contract(HOW?!?) and Patches is signed for 4yrs/$3.3M. Hartnell is the annoying contact, 2yrs/$6.5M(W/NMC) and is our captain. Our top three lines all scored over 10+ goals while Hamilton/Royce led the defense. Mike Green chipped in points, and he is up for a new contract. Not sure if I want to sign him. Tuomo Ruutu was a traded deadline deal for a 2nd and MIN 3rd, but he did nothing.

Zima had an excellent year, 30-11-6, 2.11GAA, 92.0SV%, 5 SOs, while Leclaire was 18-11-6, 2.69GAA, 89.2SV%, 1SO.

We have $6M in cap space with no big re-signings. Umberger is coming back(He was 7.27AVR and is a REALLY Good player), Glencross will probably come back, Green I'm not sure. Our defense looks eh...

I'll have to scout the prospects. Barkov was our only 1st rounder in the last 3 years. We have a 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th.

Our Head Coach, Teddy Lepers is garbage. All the A.Coaches suck...

FLYERS TRADES:
- Flyers trade Aleksander Barkov to PHX for 13th Overall Pick(Auston Matthews)
- Flyers 22nd Overall pick(Luke Green), Dave Berdusco(21yrs), and Rights to Nail Tretiak to NYI for 15th Overall(Pierre Luc-Dubois)
- Flyers trade Rights to Foyt Abrahamson and 88th Overall pick to STL for 66th Overall(Jakob Mikolasek, Goalie. All the scouts loved him)


FLYERS DRAFT PICKS
13. AUSTON MATTHEWS (C) - 1st Line, Like Tavares
15. PIERRE-LUC DUBOIS (LW/C) - 1st Line, Like Malkin
66. JAKUB MIKOLASEK (G) - Backup, but comparisons to Jonathan Quick. Tony de Teo, Darrell Bothwell.
112. EDUARD HAUPT(LW) 2nd Line potential, but poor man's Vandevelde
142. JEAN-MICHEL BEGIN (LD) - Limited Potential
172. TOMMI MAKKONEN(LD/RD) - 1/2 Potential, Like Kevin Klein
202. RICKIE BRANDBERG(LW/RW) - 4th Line, like Scottie Upshall

Very happy with our draft. For some reason Matthews fell and fell HARD. His attributes are awesome and he was great at Princeton. Giving up Barkov stunk, but I feel great about getting Matthews. Dubios was another weird faller, I thought for sure Columbus would snag him.
