This is cool. I like the graphics, although I don't understand the numbers behind them. If Montreal is a 57 then Toronto is probably 67. Do them next.

You just broke rule #7 of the Code of Conduct Sir.

Go to the box and feel shame

Will you be doing all 32 teams or just the 18 you have writers for?

Season starts in 11 days. Nine if you take weekends off. It looks like a lot of work, especially getting all the graphics right and the scoring system for all these factors. Doing all 32 teams would mean posting 3 or 4 per day. Plus there is other news to report...Swayman holdout, Suzuki/Perfetti trade, etc...

Well Habs are in for another tough year. So looks about right.

Also seems weird to say Kent Hughes lacks creativity. This is the GM who got a 1st round pick for taking on Monahans contract, then later traded Monahan for another 1st. Pretty creative to me. He got a 1st for Toffoli, a 1st for Chiarot, cleverly retaining salary to enhance the return. He used some of these picks to add promising young players like Dach and Newhook. He correctly realized Primeau would be claimed on waivers, so carried 3 goalies long enough to trade Jake Allen for a 3rd.

What move would change the GM meter to become creative?

the only thing that starts in Montreal first is golf season!!

I think Hughes has done well in the rebuild. Not sure if Habs fans feel the same way. Maybe he could have been better drafting? He's committing to a rebuild which is maybe the ownership's demands more than his own, but they are doing well building for the future.
