    Go with option C. MacKinnon is a keyplayer for Avs. Also go for Drouin, reunite him with MacKinnon!

      And on another note. Go tank mode first two years. Try to draft Hischier first year and Dahlin second/third year (can't remember when he's avaible). After first year trade maybe Landeskog for Drouin and Duchene for Sergachev? Later on Mark Stone could be the perfect PWF to play along MacKinnon and Drouin. And try to get Callan Footh for fun.

    I would recommend option C, and I highly recommend trading for David Pastrnak. Kids a stud and would looks really good on mackinnons wing in the future. You may be able to package landeskog and Johnson and send them out to Boston for Pasta and one of their stud D prospects (Carlo, Zboril etc) you would probably have to eat up a contract in return but you are able to do that in your case. If you don't want Pasta as your first line winger he can still play 2nd line with guys like Jost and Grigorenko. Future top D pair of Carlo and Meloche looks very enticing.
    LIKE SO JOHNNY SEES

  • @thatrandomvideoguy98
    @thatrandomvideoguy98 8 років тому +31

    i like the full Rebuild
    1) you kinda already did option a with toronto, so it would be repetitive
    2) it would give you more videos for this series
    3) it would make the drafting much more important than if you went with the other options

    • @ironseguin9838
      @ironseguin9838 8 років тому

      thatrandomvideoguy98 I disagree, Toronto is a team that a general manager just has to wait or the players to develop and watch success come, Johnny moved some players from the current leafs roster and it was for young kids who were ready to play immediately, I don't think he actually picked up any prospects in trades that he planned on using for top spots.

    • @thatrandomvideoguy98
      @thatrandomvideoguy98 8 років тому

      +Iron Seguin so it was more option c than a...
      either way, he still did one of the options. option B is still the best one to do in my personal opinion

    • @thatrandomvideoguy98
      @thatrandomvideoguy98 8 років тому

      +nico bonavita and? are you saying you have no faith in Johnny's drafting abilities?
      this is my opinion. I think it'd be 10x more interesting to do the full rebuild because it has felt like forever since there's been a full on rebuild gm. I think it'd not only make the drafting much more important than his previous gm mode since he ALREADY HAD THE PIECES IN TORONTO. plus, I'd like this one to last a bit longer than the Toronto gm.

    • @thatrandomvideoguy98
      @thatrandomvideoguy98 8 років тому

      +nico bonavita you didn't say that, it just sounded like it did. either way, i hope the series is an enjoyable one, that's doesn't feel like a copy of the Toronto series he did. i also look forward to future episodes :D

    Thank you so much for coming to Colorado to help return the Avs to their former glory, and to save them from their current GM, Joe Sakic.
    I like the accelerated rebuild, but with the caveat that you need to win a cup before unloading Matt Duchene. The Avs mean too much to him and he means too much to the fans. As a huge fan of the Colorado Avalanche, It's too painful to imagine him not being able to hoist the cup with the team that inspired him to play hockey in the fist place.

  • @MrPeterTrus
    @MrPeterTrus 8 років тому +72

    One thing I actually *miss* from NHL 16 is the fact that prospects' potential would change from year to year.
    With this game, you might as well get rid of every single pick that's not in the first, because nobody else will ever be worth anything.

    • @BassistOfficial
      @BassistOfficial 8 років тому +1

      Peter T Totally agree. Last year I had like 7th rounders become franchise potential and become 95 or higher. Was crazy. I still play 16 sometimes just for the GM mode

    • @MrPeterTrus

  • @BassistOfficial
    @BassistOfficial 8 років тому +10

    I did Colorado Johnny. I won 3 cups. I didn't trade Duchene, Mack, or anyone in that plan A of yours. Grigorenko got to 89 for me, and rantanen will get to 90+. Landy I kept too but he never produced that well. But I switched him to a sniper and he did way better playing with Mack. I didn't trade Varly until like year 8 or 9. Run with the core, and build around those guys. I'd say switch Landy to a sniper and just build around these guys. They will come through! Like so Johnny sees plz

    In real life, they seem to be going with Option C, but Rantanen is included
    I say you go with option A. Honestly, this core is too good to trade away. The problem is the depth surrounding the core, and that's when you need to come in and fix things. Landeskog, Duchene, and MacKinnon can be your top line talent for years to come, along with Rantanen, and Barrie and Johnson will be rocks on the blueline for years to come as well. Varlamov and Pickard isn't a horrible tandem in net as well. I believe if you do your best to surround this core with talent, than it can be a winning core.

    • @Takhar7
      @Takhar7 8 років тому +3

      Williamtheconqueror not entirely. believable scenario = flyers may do awful in the first season, and then to really shake things up and give Giroux some help they go out and acquire a stud forward (Duchene or Landeskog).
      they are ok giving up Provorov because they are getting a stud forward, AND they have two very good D prospects (Sanheim and Morin) knocking on the NHL door that already has Gostisbehere on the other side.
      Provorov is believable

    • @skkrt3177
      @skkrt3177 8 років тому +7

      TickTak77 no it isn't flyers need nhl ready defenceman despite them having some great prospects on D there forward core is currently more complete. Zero chance Philly moves provorov over players like Morin, Hagg, and Sanheim

  • @thePastafarian88
    @thePastafarian88 8 років тому +39

    Johnny, one thing i just don't understand with what you are planning to do is that you have given up on the team before you even started simulating. I don't understand why you wouldn't want to win games. No, this team is not a contender for the cup, but all of the core players that make up the team except maybe Varlamov and Johnson are 25 years old of younger. If this team starts to win games, why is that a bad thing? Once the younger players like Rantanen and Jost make their jumps in like a year or two, your top 6 is a free agent signing away from being solidified for years to come. What this team really lacks is depth in the bottom 6, and on defense. That is the difference in my opinion.
    Now, if the team starts losing big? sure, then you trade away Landy maybe for a pick, or even a (future) top 2 dman like Fowler/Lindholm and maybe a 2nd and a 3rd. However, I see no sense in trading aay Matt Duchene because he is exactly what someone like Nolan Patrick or Nico Hischer will turn into.
    In like 2 years i could see this team looking something like this (? = possible FA signing/trade/draft pick)...
    Aho/? - Mak - Rantanen
    Aho/? - Duchene - Grigorenko/Jost
    ? - Jost/? - Grigorenko/?
    Colborne - ? - ?
    Barrie - Lindholm/Fowler
    Zadorov - Johnson/?
    Gelenas - ?
    Pickard
    Lack/?
    The Team needs depth and time to develop. It's not like the core is aging (Like say Boston or Vancouver) They are all young and just need more players to fill the roles. Like so Johnny sees, and comment your thoughts on this plan.

    • @thePastafarian88
      @thePastafarian88 8 років тому +2

      So in short, trade Landy now or at the draft for either Fowler/Lindholm or the pick to get Liljegren.
      Keep Mak and Duchene (Mak should be untouchable)
      Maybe trade Johnson
      I don't think you should get Hischer or Patrick because they are centers.

    • @wilfredfizzlebang7368
      @wilfredfizzlebang7368 8 років тому +4

      If you are not a contender for a cuo why would you want to win games? Hurts drafting. Makes abolutely no sense to try and win.

    • @bobashawsmith9362
      @bobashawsmith9362 8 років тому

      Wilfred Fizzlebang From a franchise pov you're correct, but if you want to make the gm mode somewhat realistic you should try to win games and if you cannot than near the trade deadline start dealing. If in irl teams had your mindset the nhl would have 10 to 15 shit teams for 2 or 3 years AT LEAST and the rest of the teams would attempt to win a cup. For those areas with shit teams, fans would have to deal with watching a shit on ice product for multiple seasons. That would obviously suck.

    • @wilfredfizzlebang7368
      @wilfredfizzlebang7368 8 років тому +2

      +bobashaw smith Why do teams not do this in real life? Because the owners want to make money, not win stanley cups. I am positive that most owners could not care if the team has 50 or 30 wins as long as they make a profit. Hence, as a really life GM Superbman would only care about the cups, he should have the poise to take 2-3 50 game losing seasons.

  • @SnarkyDude
    @SnarkyDude 6 років тому

    @Reichl21 8 років тому

    Thank you for picking up the Avs! I am also for C! Just watched again your first video with rosters updates so I can help with trades.
    - trade Johnson, hes "old" and has a high salary. For the same reason, trade Duchene.
    - go for Drouin, hes BigMac buddy - include Iginla in that trade so he has his last chance for a cup.
    - try to bring Hamonic or Leddy from Islandres.
    - dont trade Barrie, right handed two-way defensmen you dont want to let go.
    - Max Jones from ANA is med top6 19y and they wanna trade him
    - Athanasiu is not playing for Detroit (only 1GP), if hes not injured, try to get him for 3/4 center!
    - Sproul from DET is good right handed offensive defensmen for third lane
    - Pickard is not going to be next Price, you need a second good goalie - hopefuly Bishop, Denver native, is going to be free agent in summer
    - Siemens is not going to be a good player, he has low 6 potential with 23y of age and 75 rating
    - try to bring Cal Foote in draft to Colorado - legacy!
    Also bring:
    - Domi top 6 ARZ
    - Murray top 4 CLB
    - Haula top 9 MIN
    - Paquette top 9 TBL
    - Nieto top 9 SJS
    TRADES:
    - Drouin, Paquette and 1./2. pick for Landeskog, Iginla (before trade deadline)
    - Leddy or Hamonic and 1. pick for Duchene (on draft)
    - Murray and 2. pick for Johnson
    - Athanasiu, Sproul for Meloche and Wiercoch
    - Max Jones for Gelinas and Beauch (if he doesnt retire)
    - Haula for Colborne and Comeau
    - Nieto for Siemens and lower draft pick
    Lineup:
    Drouin - MacKinnon - Rantanen
    Aho - Jost - Compher
    Jones - Haula - Grigorenko
    Paquette - Athanasiu - Nieto
    Leddy / Hamonic - Barrie
    Zadorov - Murray
    Bigras - Sproul
    Sign second goalie on the free market (Bishop if hes available).
    Go full attack with this team.

  • @ajstylesthegoat7730

    I actually just started a Colorado GM Mode a few days ago and basically went with Option C and traded everyone except for MacKinnon and Johnson. This is the squad going into Year 4:
    Mittelstadt (82) - MacKinnon (90) - Schenn (88)
    Jost (84) - Patrick (91) - Grigorenko (85)
    Rantanen (83) - Zacha (85) - Compher (83)
    Beleskey (82) - Hanzal (85) - Komarov (84)
    Smith (81), Armia (81)
    Provorov (84) - Carlson (90)
    Gardiner (85) - Johnson (87)
    Moore (83) - Bigras (82)
    Wideman (81)
    Murray (90)
    Vehvilainen (84)
    Carlson and Hanzal were both UFA signings, felt Carlson was the perfect player to help insulate the defensive core and mentor along Provorov going into Year 3, and Hanzal was a good signing as a strong 3rd/4th line center

    Johnny you should Move Duchene for say a Larkin and and maybe a 2nd rounder, Barrie to VAN or NYR for their 1st rounder
    I think Landeskog should stay on the wing with MacKinnon as they are showing good chemistry so far! But strip Landerskog of the C after the draft and run a 3 'A' system until you see who really steps up in year 2 or 3. just my thought
    Keep up the great work 2BC!

  • @kazmi1jt
    @kazmi1jt 8 років тому +3

    (Possible Targets)
    Jeff Skinner
    Matt Tkachuk
    Jonathan Huberdeau
    Johnathan Drouin ;)

    He's 28 years old, which is relatively young for a shutdown defenseman.
    Instead of a second round pick, he's worth a first.

  • @mashedpotatoes6225
    @mashedpotatoes6225 8 років тому

    Two Trade Ideas that you (johnny) has to atleast analyse and look over. A strong argument can be made for both of these trades being fait and they ensure you get a Sniper who usually grows to the low 90:s to play with Mackinnon plus you get a chance to have an elite D-man. Here are the trades that I've tried making realistic.
    1. Drouin + cap dump for Barrie + . Barrie is Elite and will maybe jump up at the end of next year. Drouin (if he is a sniper) just makes sense given the fact that Stamkos is resigned. Tampa is also prioritising the proven Kucherov and their forward core is stacked already, with up and coming contract signings plus Brayden Point and Adam Erne getting better.
    2. Duchene for Parayko + cap dump. Gives the Blues a top line center to play with Tarasenko as they already have two RD.
    The second trade should be executed as soon as possible. De first you should wait until the end of the season/draft so that Barrie helps the growth of the other assets. Keep an eye on Drouin anyway to make sure he doesn't grow out of control.
    Kucherov and Forsberg are unrealistic trades. These two should ensure that you draft late and get an elite prospect. Otherwise, send pickard down and use some shit goalie you have lying around.

  • @ericvagina7977
    @ericvagina7977 8 років тому +3

    just do the XTECH method. make unrealistic trades "all at once" like 15 trades in 1 day. grab draft picks and trade 1st 3rds and a 4ths for players like RNH, yakupov, rick nash and sign players like justin williams in free agency for 6 years 7 mill. etc

    • @ericvagina7977

    Option b-full rebuild. If you do a accelerated build then you wouldn't be as strong and probaly wouldn't win a cup and option a is straight out idiotic in 3-6 years your team won't have anybody cuz the guys you would have to trade for to make yourself a contender in year 1 and 2 would retire. And varlamov wouldn't be getting any younger and retire by year 4-9. A full rebuild may take a few years to develop into a contender but once you get there you'll dominate like you did with Toronto as long as you don't have cap problems. If cap is a problem then option c accelerated rebuild is the way to go but if cap works with you then option b is the only option

  • @PlatinumPremieres

  • @kylecronin8737
    @kylecronin8737 8 років тому

    I agree with option C, keep MacKinnon, and good on you for giving Landeskog a chance. He could be your JVR for this GM mode. You can get a stud like Kucherov for sure under the right circumstances. But for the love of God, keep Iginla on the top line! Notice MacKinnon and Landeskog's physicality are not five stars. You need a guy who can compete, but not rule the ice, on first line who can protect those guys.
    Also, split the defence up to help the young guys when the team is playing well. It'll help lose games and develop Gelinas and the other guy.

  • @danieljackson9451
    @danieljackson9451 8 років тому +2

    What I would do(I am a huge Av's fan from Ontario) :
    OPTION A/C HYBRID
    Trade everyone except Mackinnon, Pickard and Duchene with the option to hold onto Barrie/Johnson/Landeskog
    The roster in theory should simulate badly, so your draft target should be Liljgren. If you can get him in the draft, my ideas should set you up real well.
    You should move out Varlamov like you have already stated and I think the best fit for him would be Carolina (Ward/Lack are both low overall so it makes sense for Varly to be their future) Carolina also has a plethora of young Defenseman which Avs desperately need. Your two targets should be either Faulk or Hanifin. Carolina would have a future of Hanifin or Faulk along with Jake's Bean, Pesce, Murphy as their top guys. You can also grab Lack as your backup for the year as he is serviceable and very low value.
    That would leave your top 6D of the future being Liljgren, Faulk or Hanifin, Zadorov, Bigras, Meloche, Barrie/Johnson if you keep them or whatever assets you acquire for them.
    The forwards I would deal off anyone not named Duchene or Mackinnon and prospects. You already have two 1st line centers under 27, most championship teams would kill for that. I can also tell you Landeskog doesn't simulate very well, maybe swap him for another defenseman and trade Barrie or Johnson for a forward to replace Landy. Rantanen should become a top 6 force and Jost should as well, so you basically have 2 centers and 2 wingers set. Grigorenko, Compher should be adequate for your 3rd line and Martisen actually develops into a decent 4th liner.
    Basically going forward you would be looking for 3 or 4 forwards going forward thru the draft or free agency which is easily attainable.
    A Young talent to look at would be Nick Ritchie in Anaheim as a 2/3 Winger who does grow (send beauchimen+ for him)
    This saves you from doing a full rebuild or a tweener stage team and at this point if guys don't develop you should have lots of assets thru the draft. Lots of other good free agents come up as well, believe Oshie usually walks in year one as well as a few in year 2
    Like so Johnny sees! #MackAndDutchForCo-Captains

    Hey everyone, personally when Johnny has done these types of GM modes I've noticed that he's built teams almost like they're like team with 7 amazing players then shitters around them. Pittsburgh Penguins if you will. I personally wanna see a team like the Lightning built. An all around team that has good players everywhere. For example, in Tampa's case, every player is good (exception for Stamkos). No single player is world class (again except Stamkos). That's just me though. I feel a new type of team built would be nice. Not just a team where all your salary is dumped into 5 players.

    Possible options Lucic, he's a bit older but scores and is a big strong player. Puljujjaharvi or however it's spelt, he's big skilled and very young. And finally Patrick Maroon, again he's a bit older (28ish) but again big, strong, skilled, and knows how to play with stars (McDavid). All possible options for Mackinnon

  • @hyperbole3594
    @hyperbole3594 8 років тому

    Option A is already out for me So no explanation.
    Option B is probably the best option. I think if you keep some of the key guys (MacKinnon, Duchene, etc) and trade away some of the older players for draft picks, prospects, and maybe veteran depth, you can get the right guys for a chance at the cup.
    Option C is okay but risky. If you choose to trade away everyone but MacKinnon, you risk other teams not taking what you're giving and you risk players that won't grow properly. I like the idea of trying to get that top 5 pick within the first 2 years, but in the long run, option B might be the best choice here with what you're given.

  • @MrSpeed427
