Then I wonder how he pulled this off To Avs Milan Hejduk To Wild Roberto Luongo WOW Here is the story behind that, from an old post that brought up the same question..... It all depends on how you want to look at it.......I lost Palffy to retirement and was pissed to lose a player of that caliber and screw up what I had going on this season, as it left a HUGE hole in my lines. I knew if I dealt Luongo that I still would Cechmanek rated 80OV (-3 OV to Luongo) and could get that "big" winger back without really having to "downgrade" in net too bad. My objective is simple, win the cup. I strongly feel my chances are better to do that with an 81OV goaltender (turned Cechmanek into Lalime) and a "monster" winger, rather than an 83OV goaltender and not filling the hole that a player of the caliber of Palffy was going to leave. So I kind of look at the trade like, which of the following would I rather have..... A) 83OV goalie or B) 81OV goalie/82OV right winger I honestly think most people would say B. Now, that's not to say that in the long run (or even next season if I cant get another goalie for that matter) that it might not have been the "smartest" thing, but I will say this.......I'd rather have 2 or 3 cups under my belt and never make the playoffs again, then make the playoffs every single year but never win the cup! But, we all have our own philosophies.......

ya Jon was kind of forced into a corner on that one. He ended up winning the cup though so it turned out alright

One word Jon - OUTSTANDING!
I can't imagine the time that took to prepare this feature! Amaing & Awesome job dude!

I have to agree with all here, the trade feature is terrific. Look back and see what bonehead moves you made. LOL

How does it work? I click on Nashville and nothing happens. I click on other teams and nothing happens. Someone stop laughing and tell me what I'm doing wrong.

These are fantastic, but why I am I not able to get my trade history or anything? I can get everyone else that I try, but not my own.

Sorry Jon my page was probably a bitch to put together because of all the trades lol You and Philly were the worst. There were times that I seriously thought it was never going to end. With Philly it seemed like I was always posting the same trade, so many were with the same guy involved or him traing with NJ or Fla, I had to make sure I wasn't making a mistkae by double pasting the same trade lol One word Jon - OUTSTANDING! I can't imagine the time that took to prepare this feature! Amaing & Awesome job dude! wait - that's 3 descriptive words...lol... Seriously though - this is just yet another reason why this has to be one of - if not - the best leagues out there!!! Thanks guys, I sincerely appreciate all the compliments from you guys. It seriously would have sucked to spend all that time and have you guys be like "yeah, ok, whatever" lol And man, you have nooooo idea how long it took lol.....It's something I've been working on for about the past month and a half or so, maybe longer. I really thought I would never get it done, but I just tried to do a little bit each day
