Completed: September 01, 2005
-Completed Table of Contents
-Completed Introduction/about me
-Completed How this guide works
-Completed In Closing/Legal Blurb
-Created "skeleton" of sections 3 through 8 (which will be filled out as
content becomes available)

Version 1.0
Started: September 08, 2005
Completed: September 10, 2005
-Completed NHL Roster Changes through today (the 10th)
-Added 15 CAPs courtesy of LeatherFace61
-Added "NHL Prospect Pools" to the Elite League Changes section (list of Elite 
League players whose rights belong to NHL clubs)
-Added player rating edit for Henrik Ludnqvist (to make an NHL-acceptable

Completed: September 11, 2005
-Added 3 roster moves (things I forgot to add in the original release)
-Added a few more CAPs courtesy Leatherface
-Fixed an error with the prospect pool (I listed JYP as an elitserien team. It

Version 1.2
Started: September 12, 2005
Completed: September 12, 2005
-Added 1 roster move

Version 1.3
Started: September 14, 2005
Completed: September 14, 2005
-Added more players to the prospect pool (up to Nashville)
-Decided against adding more CAPs until LeatherFace has the opportunity to
tone them down (as he wants to do).
-Added a couple of roster moves.

Version 1.4
Started: September 15, 2005
Completed: September 15: 2005
-LeatherFace toned down his CAPs and added more, so that update has been
reflected.

-Added a created team courtesy of Colin Lim

Version 1.7
Started: September 26, 2005
Completed: October 4, 2005

First, I want to apologize for the length of time it took me to get this new
update finished. I've had lots on my plate the last couple of weeks and thus
have not had the time I would want to commit to this guide. Hopefully I can
stay more on top of things as  the regular season begins and rosters take a 
more definate shape, then I can relax knowing that moves won't be as fast or
furious as they have been to this point. Basically, what's new in this version
is just a bunch of cleanup in the post training camp world. Some cuts, some
removal of the *has a training camp tryout* notation, that sort of thing. There
are also some new CAPs from LeatherFace.

Version 1.8
Started: October 7, 2005
Completed: October 9, 2005
-Minor NHL moves (Vancouver/NY Rangers deal, Boumedienne to Switzerland, Wooley
signs in Detroit) & some missed moves overseas. 
-A couple of NHL roster tweaks related to prospects that made the team who I
didn't add eariler.
-Created a NEW SECTION to hold line combos and captaincy lists for all 30 NHL
clubs. This release only has a preliminary list of captains.
-Added changes in jersey numbers for all 30 teams
-Began the process of identifying NHLers who are incorrectly still on Elite 
League teams.
-Added a "ranking system" to the players on the prospect pools to help judge 
the possibility of certain players coming over to play for their NHL rights 
holders. This should help people decide who's worth moving and who isn't
(because I know that Washington and Nashville are already nearly full in terms
of rosters and couldn't probably handle taking on all their prospects)

Also, please note that I have added to the FAQ section. From here on out I
WILL NOT, under ANY circumstances answer questions that are addressed in the
FAQ section, the "Introduction"/"how this guide works" section, or anything 
else I deem self-explanatory.

Version 1.9
Started: October 10, 2005
Completed: November 6, 2005
-Whole whack of new CAPs from LeatherFace, and some player edits of his (well,
they're actually CAPs, but are for guys already in the game from the Elite 
Leagues, so I put them as edits)
-Some player edits (Goalie gear fixes [sorta], a couple of light equipment 
changes)
-A bunch of moves mostly relating to free agents now playing in Europe.


I apologize a ton for the length of time it took to get this update up, you can
blame 3 mid-terms and a research paper for that, as well as my own laziness.
Hopefully this will be the last "big" update, as LF is releasing CAPs in small
bursts of teams, and there shouldn't be another mass exodus of players like
I have this time (which is only becuase I hadn't done the research).

Hopefully next time I can start doing line combos, as well as updating the
jersey numbers and captaincy lists.

Version 2.0
Started: November 21, 2005
Completed: November 28, 2005

-Several NHL deals (All the Columbus-Anaheim movement, Bos/Phx, And some moves
involving the Oilers, plus the most recent deal, NJ/Phx)

-With Biller88's excellent Player Edit guide up, I've decided to remove the
edits from my guide and give them to him. Leatherface's CAPs will remain, and
I will shift the CAP-based edits of elite league players to that section for
the time being. Jersey numbers and captaincy lists will also be in Biller's
guide from now on. To take the place of section 6, I've come up with "NHL Team
Reports." Every update, I'll do my best to add a couple of pieces for one or
more teams until I've completed all 30 teams. Each team will have their 
regular strength line combos, some overall assessment of their strengths and 
weaknesses, and listings of the important players to keep an eye on in Dynasty 
Mode.

Version 2.1
Started: November 30, 2005
Completed: December 3, 2005

-More NHL moves (waiver wire action, and the shocker Boston-San Jose deal)
-some additions to the NHL tema reports section (see that section for more
info.)
-A pair of new CAPs, not by LeatherFace, but by me

On a somewhat odd personal note, let me say that although it sounds odd, making
the necessary changes for the Joe Thornton to San Jose deal was a bittersweet
thing for me. On the one hand, I'm absolutely thrilled that the Sharks land a 
player of Thornton's calibre. He is someone who can elevate this team and
its current sorry state of affairs and turn it into a more competitive club
instantly. However, I'm deeply saddened (as much as a sports fan can be) that
it came at the cost of my favorite player, and one of the most beloved Sharks,
Marco Sturm. While I made a point of trading for Sturm in almost every
dynasty I've ever played as a team other than San Jose, it will be extremely
odd to see Marco suituing up in the real NHL wearing Boston's black & gold.
Although I don't normally want to turn this guide into some sort of personal
platform for my opinions and feelings about players in the NHL, I sincerely
wish Marco all the best in Boston, and I know that I'll always cheer for him
no matter where he plays. Who knows, his contract is up in a couple of years,
and maybe Doug Wilson (or whomever is in charge at that point) can find a way
to work him back into the fold. I also hope that Boston fans realize they're 
getting a good player and a great guy, and don't take it out on Sturm, or any
of the new Bruins, for the fact that management traded their captain and best 
player away.

Also, I want to address something about the Owen Nolan situation. I have been
reminded that my instructions to release Nolan are not entirely accurate. As
of right now, Nolan is still officially property of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The most likely scenario is that when he is declared fit to play, the Leafs 
will almost immediately move to deal him somewhere. However, since I cannot
control what the in-game Maple Leafs do with Nolan, and since he will be 
playing somewhere else, I decided it best from a gameplay aspect to leave him
as a free agent so a team can pick him up in the dynasty mode. After all, it's
not like Toronto is going to get a whole lot in return for him anyway.

Version 2.2
Started: December 17, 2005
Completed: December 30, 2005
-A few NHL transfers
-All 12 olympic teams have released their rosters. Not all teams have their 
3 man "taxi squads" named, but those should come later.

-I have some custom teams and line combos and such to add, but they won't be
in this update, because I'm really short on time. CAPs are also coming in the 
next update. LF also has a bunch of CAPs on his site that I haven't got to yet
Those will come later as well.

Version 2.3
Started: January 19, 2006
Completed: January 25, 2006

-NHL transactions
-Some olympic team changes
-New CAPs

I apologize for the length of time between updates. Post-Christmas wind down
and some time under the weather left me without the time I wanted to work on 
this. Again, I'm going to have to put off line combos and whatnot,
because I want to get the transactions up tonight. I'll start working on 
those after I submit this verison, and maybe in the next couple of days I can
release Version 2.4 with all of those extras.

Version 2.4
Started: February 28, 2006
Completed: March 9, 2006

-All the trade deadline moves 
-Added a couple of created teams
-Overhaul of the Olympic rosters has begun. check the international roster
section for more info.

Also, I'm going to announce that the team reports section is on hold right now.
I have found a couple of problems with it. #1 is that lines change so often
even regardless of injury situations, it's just not feasable to come up with
anything that is realistic or relevant for more than a couple of days. The
other problem is that in order for me to do everything, I need to keep up with
not only transactions, but also all of Leatherface's CAPs and Biller's edits.
Right now I'm massively behind on both of those, so I don't expect to be able
to put forth my best effor for a while.

I'm going to keep what little I've done up for now, but the time may come that
I either tone the section down to something smaller, or eliminate it completely

In the mean time, if you want line combos, I suggest you visit 

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/

and check the right side of the page for a piece on "Team Depth Charts & 
Salaries"

That link has some fairly recent lines

Introduction [01a]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hello, and welcome to the NHL 06 roster update FAQ. This guide represents my
effort to provide you with the ability to keep your rosters current without
having to utilize EA's roster updates (only available online), and without 
the need to manually keep track of all the player movement in the NHL yourself
(which, believe me, is no easy task). If you read my roster update FAQ for
NHL 2005, you will find this one quite similar in construction. If you haven't
used my guide from last year, then I hope that you find this guide easy to
use. The guide is broken up into 9 sections (not counting section 0, which 
contains the table of contents and version history). Those sections are:

Section 1: Introduction/about me - This is what you are reading right now. It
contains an overview of the guide and its sections. Also included is some brief
background on me. There's also a set of frequently asked questions tacked on at
the end.

Section 2: How this guide works - This section provides brief examples and
explanations of how I will list transactions in each section, and how CAPs and
Created Teams will be listed.

Section 3: NHL Roster changes - The meat of this guide. Here I will be going
through all 30 clubs worth of changes. If a player is traded, signed, brought
over from an in-game European Elite Leauge or released, you should be reading 
about it here.

Section 3b: NHL Lines & Captains - New in Version 1.8, this list will hopefully
keep up with the line combos teams use throughout a season, as well as the
players assigned to wear the "C" and "A"s on each team. Read the top of that
section for some more specific information.

Section 4: International roster changes - This section will help you correct
the rostes for national teams so that they can reflect the most recent 
appearance of that nation (for example, the Turin Olympics will be the first
thing I correct for). 

Section 5: Elite League roster changes - This is the one section most likely
to be barren or even eliminated from the guide. In the NHL 2005 guide, I used
the Elite League section to cover the list of players who signed lockout deals
in Finland, Sweden, or Germany (the three elite leagues represented in the 
game). Since there is no longer a lockout, I don't know what I'll do here.
I might list players that go between the Elite Leauges and the NHL (as a
sort of secondary list to from the NHL updates), or if I am feeling
particularly ambitious, I might try and do some actual updating. You'll just
have to stay tuned to see what happens.

Section 6: Player Rating Changes - At long last, EA has put into the NHL
franchise what Madden and NBA Live have had all along: the ability to change
the individual ratings of real players without the need to duplicate them in
the CAP mode. This section will (eventually) feature all the tweaks and fixes
to the ratings of players on the NHL rosters to try and reflect the real world
in a more accurate way.

Section 7: Missing player CAPs - Thanks to CAP guru Leatherface61, who has
agreed to supply my guide with the CAPs that he makes and posts on his website.
This section will help you make all the guys who aren't in the game. From Sid
the Kid all the way down to that 4th line injury call-up, if LF feels like
making it, it will be here.

Section 8: Created Teams - A sort of tribute to my very first GameFAQs guide,
this section will contain a variety of teams made by myself and other users,
all of which have some sort of interesting theme or idea behind them. From
recreating the Winnipeg Jets to putting together a team of Britsh Columbia's
best, you'll find the collective inginuity of the NHL 06 players here

Section 9: In closing/Legal blurb - The dry stuff. My contact information can
be found here, as well as any random musings I might have. The final piece
of this guide will be the obligatory legal disclaimer. You know, don't steal
my work, don't sell this for profit, don't send me hatemail meant for EA. That
sort of thing...

About Me [01b]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So, who is the loony behind the excessivly long and blathering guide? As you
might have guessed, I'm something of a hockey nut. When I'm not cheering a 
San Jose Sharks victory (despite my decidedly Canucks-centric location), or 
pouring over stats and transactions, I play games, go to college, slack off,
hang out. You know, normal stuff. I'm quite the split personality, balancing
my sports-crazed side with the geeky side that likes computers, gaming, and 
The Transformers.

This work represents my fourth contribution to GameFAQs. You might have 
previously read my work in:

-The NHL 2004 custom team mode FAQ
-The NHL 2005 roster update FAQ
-The Yu-Gi-Oh! Trials to Glory...(name's too long) Card FAQ

Yeah, so 3 hockey FAQs and one for a game based on a decidedly kiddy anime 
about little twerps and their magic cards isn't exactly an inspiring mix, but
I think I get the job done.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Frequently Asked Questions [01c]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Q: Can you make a CAP of _____________?

A: No, I can't. Seriously, I don't make the CAPs, that's LeatherFace61 does.
And no, I won't pass on requests to him very often, simply because he has 
enough on his plate without bending to everyone's requests for some random
borderline prospect who likely won't see the NHL this year. He has said that
if you want to request a CAP, you can contact him directly if you want that 
certain player badly enough

*****

Q: Do you have a Max Drive save or other roster file you can send me?

A: No. If I had a Max Drive, I certainly wouldn't have wasted my time writing
this guide. I wrote the guide for people like me who are in the same boat: no
online capability, no Max Drive or anything similar. I have no way to send 
rosters out, and without sounding stuffy, even if I did, I spent an incredible
amount of time writing this guide. If you want to update your rosters, use the
guide. It shouldn't take half the time to do your updates as it did for me to
write them.

*****

Q: You missed _______________

A: That's not a question. Kidding aside though, I'm by no means perfect. I've
likely missed a lot of lower end transactions (especially at the beginning of
the season with all the training camp tryouts and non-contract dealings). If
you think you've spotted something missing, let me know, and I'll check up on
it. It's not that I don't trust your sources, it's just that I've made mistakes
myself, so it's better to have confirmation from multiple sources.

*****

Q: When is the next update coming, it's been _________ days.

A: I update whenever possible. If that means I can get 3 updates done in 3 days
then so be it. If I get side tracked and can't update for a few days, then so
be that. I don't have unlimited time to dedicate to this game and its guide,
so I will have times when I can't update for a few days. At worst, I'll try to
get at least 1 update each week, so long as there are moves to report.

*****

Q: What does ____________ mean?

A: Almost 95% of the notation I use is explained somewhere in the guide.
Things like OOR (with a country listed) are definately there, and I touch
on several things like minor league deals and tryouts. If it's not there, much
of it should be very self-explanatory. I'll admit that I briefly used "PTO" 
which stands for Professional Try-Out, and didn't explain it, but if you know
anything about hockey or any sports in general, the concept of a "try-out" 
shouldn't be that difficult to figure out. PTO isn't a concern anymore, as I
removed it from the guide, as well as any mentions of try-outs of any kind.

*******

Q: What does __________ in a CAP or a created team mean?

A: I don't know. LeatherFace made most, if not all of the CAPs (I have received
a handful of CAPs from other people, but I haven't necessarily used them at the
point at which I write this particular question.) The created teams are done
by submission and by me. I make sure to point out the teams that I make myself,
and for those teams I will be as helpful as possible. I am not responsible for
the formatting and use of acronyms and abbreviations.

********

Q: How do I move _________, I get told the team can't have less than X skaters
or goalies.

A: 1) in the case of some moves (specifically within the NHL) you will have to
make two "passes" of the guide. Making as many moves as possible in the first
run, then coming back and doing the remaining handful of moves on a second run
through. The Capitals suffer from this because there are so many people that 
need to be cut before you can start adding players, and if you go in 
alphabetical order, you won't get to Washington until last. 2) You may have to
make the CAPs before you make some moves. For example, you need Peter Budaj on
the Avalanche before you can move Phil Sauve to Calgary, and you need Sauve to
be on the Flames before you can retire Roman Turek. Therefore making Budaj is 
necessary early in this case. 3) If you can't move people from the elite league
teams, DUPLICATE them. You do this by doing the following:

1) Create a team (if you already have a created team that you don't mind
emptying a portion of the roster to make room for other players, you can use
that. You don't NEED a brand new team for this.)

2) Add the players you want to duplicate to the team from WITHIN the create 
team menu (ie using the last screen of the create team menu)

3) Once you've added the players to the created team, exit the create team
screens and go to Roster Management.

4) If you press L1, you'll change the league from NHL to Created Teams. Find
the team you used in step 2.

5) Trade players from the created team over to their respective NHL clubs (ie
Lundqvist to the Rangers)

There you go. You've added Lundqvist to the Rangers without removing him from
Frolunda and disrupting their goalie situation.

*********************
Q: What's the deal with OOR guys and their rights still being owned by a team?

A: Without launching into a big discussion about Free Agency status, the
short answer I can give you is that some players have left to play in Europe,
but their contract status means that they are not free agents in terms of NHL
teams. The most common way this occurs is because of Restricted Free Agency.
As a Restricted Free Agent (or RFA), a player is not required to PLAY for their
NHL club. However, they are not free to sign with another NHL club unless the
first team allows it. For example, Milan Kraft of Pittsburgh is a RFA. Although
he isn't able to play on the Penguins because he doesn't have a deal in place 
with them, the fact that he is a RFA means that he can't just sign with, say,
Dallas. If he tried, Pittsburgh has the right to match the contract he agrees
to with Dallas and keep Kraft for themselves. However, Kraft can freely sign 
with a team outside of the NHL if he wishes, and he has done just that.
So even though he is OOR because he is playing in Europe, he is still
considered the property of the Pittsburgh Penguins until he is old enough for
the RFA status to expire, or until Pittsburgh either decides to trade his 
rights elsewhere. Of course, it's a whole lot more complicated than that, but
all you need to know is that if I say a guy still has his rights owned by a NHL
team, then you have the choice of either keeping him on that NHL team, or 
moving him to wherever you stash your OOR players. 

If an OOR player does not say that his rights are still held by another team
then he is, for the purposes of the NHL, a free agent. For those guys, either
make them free agents, or put them with wherever your OOR guys are.

**********
Q: When will the next update be?

A: I don't know. I have a life to live, and as I write this question (early 
November 05) it's rather full. College especially monopolizes my time sometimes
and that means that I might not have updates regularly. My hope is to update
about once a week, provided I have enough content to add to make it worthwhile.
However, please do not e-mail me asking when the next update is coming, because
it won't make it come any faster.

Yes, I know I repeated this question from earlier, but it could use a little
emphasis.

**********
Q: Can I host your guide on my site?

A: No. No you cannot. I am only permitting this guide to be hosted on GameFAQs,
LeatherFace61's site (the URL i in here somewhere) and maybe Operation Sports
if I feel like posting it there. If you are a representative of any other site
like NeoSeeker, CheatCodeCentral, or anything like that. DO NOT contact me. I 
will respond to you in a hostile fashion. The last time I let one of my guides
get out there, I ended up with an inbox full of spam, and then I couldn't get
a hold of the webmaster for him to remove it. Never again am I going to let 
that happen.

Oh, and of course, since this appears on GameFAQs, it also appears on GameSpot
via their association (although the GameSpot listing is simply a linke to the
GameFAQs address)

**********
Q: Will you be adding new features to the guide?

A: Don't know. I would've originally said no, but since then I've added
captaincy lists, jersey numbers, and forthcoming line combos. I've been looking
at putting in a list of my favorite underappreciated players, or breaking down
each team's strenghs, weaknesses, and some basic dynasty info, but if and when
I get around to that is up in the air.

Also, you may see some changes to the Player Edits section. Biller88 from the
GameFAQs forums is planning on making a Player Edit FAQ, and I might just give
him my changes and remove that section from this guide (though I would 
contribute any further edits I do to his guide). Stay tuned for more info.


===============================================================================
Section 2: How this guide works [02hgw]
===============================================================================

Ok, so you want to know how the guide works? Well, if you read my NHL 2005
roster FAQ, you can probably skip this, because it'll be much the same. If
you didn't read that guide, or want a refresher, here are the most important
things:

In each of sections 3 through 5, teams will be sorted in the same manner that
the game sorts them in, which is pretty much some form of alphabetical list.

Under each team, you will find two lists: "Subtractions" and "Additions". These
are exactly what they sound like. The subtractions list is every player on the
default game roster that shouldn't be on that particular team. The additions
list is every player that is somewhere else in the game's default roster and
needs to be moved to the proper team. Each player will be listed by their full
name, and the team that they go to/from will be in brackets after the name 
(note that I will keep track of free agents as I would a regular team).

For example, you might see for the Edmonton Oilers:

Subtractions
------------
Wayne Gretzky (Los Angeles)
Marty McSorley (Los Angeles)
Mike Krushelnyski (Los Angeles)

Additions
---------
Jimmy Carson (Los Angeles)
Martin Gelinas (Los Angeles)

This is, of course, the famous trade of Wayne Gretzky from the Oilers. This 
listing under the Oilers means that you take Gretzky, McSorley, and 
Krushelyski off of Edmonton to Los Angeles, and that you'll add Carson and 
Gelinas from Los Angeles to Edmonton. This listing does mean that each player
should, in theory, apppear twice. Once as the subtraction from their old team, 
and once as the addition to their new team (For the above entry, you would also
see the reverse listing under Los Angeles, with Gretzky and co as additions
from Edmonton, and Carson and Gelinas as subtractions to Edmonton). The only
exceptions are with players released to free agency, players who retired, and
players who went to leagues outside of what is in the game. They are only 
listed once, under the Subtractions list for their default team. There are
simply so many guys who fall into this category that it would take forever to
make additions lists for each of them, and it would also probably make the
guide more cumbersome.

THE EASIEST WAY TO DO THIS IS TO MAKE MOVES ONLY FROM THE SUBTRACTIONS LIST.
If you do this, each player will be moved. You can then use the additions list
as a way of checking to make sure you got the right players on the team.

It is worth noting that a player who makes multiple moves (ie Gretzky going 
from Edmonton, to Los Angeles, to St. Louis, and finally to the Rangers) will
make the immediate jump from their default team to the current team. So you the
subtractions list for Edmonton would not read "Wayne Gretzky (Los Angeles)",
but rather "Wayne Gretzky (NY Rangers)" to make the moves as efficient as
possible.

Of course, this would create problems for someone returning to the guide to
make additional changes after using it once before. For them, Gretzky would've
gone to the Kings, and now the update says he goes from the Oilers to the
Rangers. To solve this headache and prevent people from having to compare old
releases to new ones, at the top of each roster update section, I will list
changes that occur from one version to the next. So if version 1 has
Gretzky moving from Edmonton to Los Angeles, and version 2 shifts him from
Los Angeles to St. Louis, you would see:

******************
VERSION 2 CHANGES
******************
-WAYNE GRETZKY moves from Los Angeles to St. Louis

Wayne Grezky (St. Louis)

Do you see how this works? The master list of additions and subtractions always
assumes you start from scratch. The Version Changes list at the top of each
section allows you to make the handful of changes from the last release of
the guide without having to sift through a master list. It's probably a little
bit confusing, so here is the rule of thumb:

1) If this is your FIRST time using the guide to update your rosters, use the
master list.

2) If you have already used this guide to update your rosters, use the "version
changes" pieces at the top of each section to make any changes that have 
occured after the guide version you used originally. You can't necessarily 
check the exact version you used, but at the top of the guide I list each 
version of the guide with its completion date.

A special note on moves across leagues
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

Occasionally, a player may move across the leagues. This happens when someone
goes from the NHL to an Elite Leauge, or vice versa. In this case, you will
see their name under the appropriate team, but the destination/origin team
in brackets will have the league, followed by the team name. So if we were
saying that former Lightning player Alexander Selivanov went from Tampa Bay
to Krefeld in the German league (DEL), the entry would be:

Subtractions
------------
Alexander Selivanov (DEL - Krefeld)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A special note on Created Players
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

Since there will be players who aren't in the game by default, you will see
them under the "additions" list with "CAP" in brackets after their name. In
such cases, please consult section 7: Missing Player CAPs (code is "07CAP" with
square brackets). An example of this would be:

One last note: retirements & moves to leagues not in the game
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
The retirement of Scott Stevens has reminded me of the possibility that some
players could conceivably retire before, during, and after the season. If
that is the case, you will see (RETIRED) in brackets after the player's name.
What I suggest you do for retired players is tuck them somewhere out of the 
way (the best way is to have a created team on hand that has only minimal 
players (20), so that you can trade retired guys to that team.)

I suggest you give similar treatment to guys who have signed in Elite Leagues
not in the game (like Switzerland, Russia, the Czech Republic, etc). They
will appear in subtractions lists with (OOR - ________) after their name.
"OOR" means "Off Of Rosters" (they have a [usually] binding contract in
another league) and the blank will have the league name (just for the sake of
reference.) IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU SHOULD SIGN THESE PLAYERS TO AN 
INTERNATIONAL TEAM. THE COUNTRY LISTED IS SIMPLY THE COUNTRY OF THE LEAGUE THAT
PLAYER IS IN NOW. Some players are playing in Europe with the blessing of the
NHL team that holds their rights. In that event, there will be a note after
their subtraction that says "rights retained by __________". For these players
they should be OOR so that you do not have them appearing on lines when you 
play exhibition games or the basic season mode. However, if you are doing a
dynasty, you might want to put them back on their NHL teams so that they can
be traded properly, or you can allow a return to their club.

It's not that hard once you see the whole thing in action.

Section 3: NHL Roster changes [03NHL]
===============================================================================

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
$ IMPORTANT: The EA Guys       $
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I thought we'd seen the first and last of this with the free agents in NHL 2005
but I guess not. Sadly the NHL 06 free agent list features a horde of fake 
players who are actually the game's development team, and friends of them.
For your sanity, I have listed the names of everyone you must "dispose of", and
you can find a nifty way to get rid of them without messing up any other
regular in-game rosters (no, not even the international ones)

NOTE: the are all recognizable by the fact that they are on the NHL Free Agent
list despite having 0 games of NHL experience, which would violate the PA's
licensing agreement.

Thanks to Jeff N for reminding me that I forgot to include the method to get
rid of the players. Here's what you want to do.

1) Create a team. The jerseys, arena, name, etc don't matter. Put exactly 20
players on it, broken down by 2 goalies, and 18 skaters. Stock the team with
either NHLers that you'll recognize (use an all-star team), or with prospects
from the Elite Leagues (according to the prospect pool later in this guide)

2) Press Start to finish making the team. Now head to Roster Management.

3) Put one RM list to the Free Agent pool (L1 on Anaheim), and the other to
your newly created team (press L2, then find the team, listed alphabetically
by nickname)

4) Trade the EA players listed below from the free agent list to the created
team. Make sure that you trade 2 goalies and 18 skaters (it makes for less
work later on.) You'll know you have to stop when you are told you have hit
the maximum number of players (40)

Now, if you put NHLers on the team, follow step 5a. If you used prospects,
follow step 5b.

5a) Return to the Create Team menu, and select the team you made in step 1.
Go forward to the roster screen, and remove the NHLers from the team using
the square button (PS2. For other platforms it should tell you what button
removes players at the bottom of the screen). DO NOT remove the EA players,
or they'll just go right back to the Free Agents list

5b) If you used prospects, simply trade them to the teams they are supposed
to be going to (I advise using this method over straight trading out of the
elite league, because it allows you to duplicate the players without removing
them from their original teams)

6) Once you're down to just the 20 EA guys on the team, return to Roster 
Management, and continue signing EA players to the team. Another 20 and you'll
be full.

7) Repeat steps 1 through 6 until you've removed all the EA players from the
Free Agents list. You'll need about 4 teams. 3 of them will be filled with 40
players, and the last will take the remaining 13. This last team will have to
keep some of the players you added via Create Team (from step 1) to bring it
up to the minimum.

VERSION UPDATES

*NOTE: I won't be including new CAPs assigned to teams in the updates section
whenever I mention new CAPs in the opening section of the guide, simply check
the CAP list for the ones you don't have.

*******************
VERSION 2.4 CHANGES
*******************
-I previously reported that DANNY RICHMOND didn't have a CAP. Of course, I
stupidly forgot that LF had made a Richmond CAP and it was included in the last
update.
-Edmonton acquires DICK TARNSTROM from Pittsburgh for JANI RITA and CORY CROSS
-Edmonton also obtains JAROSLAV SPACEK from Chicago for TONY SALMELAINEN (NOTE:
Salmelainen was previously moved to HIFK of SM-Liiga. He hasn't returned to the
NHL, but at the very least, note that his rights have moved to Chicago from
Edmonton)
-Nashville claims SIMON GAMACHE off waivers from St. Louis
-St. Louis deals MIKE SILLINGER to the Predators for TIMOFEI SHISHKANOV
-St. Louis trades DOUG WEIGHT and Erkki Rajamaki (not in game) to Carolina for
JESSE BOULERICE, MIKE ZIGOMANIS, and MAGNUS KAHNBERG (Kahnberg is on Frolunda
of the Elitserien. Move him over if you wish, but he won't likely play this
year, and would still need to be toned down if you take him out of Sweden)
-Atlanta claims RICO FATA off waivers from Pittsburgh
-Boston claims JOSH LANGFELD off waivers from San Jose
-Washington acquires DOUG DOULL from Phoenix for DWAYNE ZINGER.
-Chicago claimed CRAIG ANDERSON off of waivers from St. Louis who had 
previously acquired him from Boston. Basically you just need to move Anderson
from the Bruins to the Blackhawks.
-Tampa Bay acquires ZDENEK BLATNY from Boston for Brian Eklund (not in game)
-Florida claimed JAMIE ALLISON off waivers from Nashville.
-Dallas claimed JEREMY STEVENSON off waivers from Nashville.

*******************
-I mistakenly reported the Kolanos trade in the last update. the actual deal is
that Phoenix traded KRYS KOLANOS to the CAROLINA HURRICANES for PAVEL BRENDL.
-St. Louis claimed VLADIMIR ORSZAGH off of waivers. Orszagh had to pass through
waivers to re-enter the NHL after Phoenix attempted to sign him after December
1st. Orszagh had been playing with Lulea of the Elitserien
-Tampa Bay waived DAVE ANDREYCHUK, essentially causing his retirement (He 
remains on the Tampa payroll, and is technically an active player, but he did
not report to Springfield, and appears that he will not play hockey again in
the NHL)
-Dallas acquired JANNE NIINIMAA from the NY Islanders for JOHN ERSKINE.
-Pittsburgh's ZIGGY PALFFY announced his retirement due to a combination of
"personal reasons" and a nagging shoulder injury
-Pittsburgh acquired ERIC CAIRNS from Florida
-Boston claimed CRAIG ANDERSON off of waivers from Chicago
-Pittsburgh assigned LASSE PIRJETA to Kloten of the Swiss league. Though he 
could concievably be recalled to the team, I somewhat doubt it. I would make
him OOR, just note that his rights still belong to Pittsburgh.
-Philadelphia acquired PETR NEDVED from Phoenix in exchange for 
DENNIS SEIDENBERG.
-Carolina trades DANNY RICHMOND (CAP) to the Chicago Blackhawks for 
ANTON BABCHUK
-Florida acquires JON SIM from Philadelphia
-Phoenix trades MARTIN SONNENBERG to the New York Rangers for JEFF TAFFE

Finally, Pittsburgh legend MARIO LEMIEUX announces his retirement because of
health reasons and an inability to play at his expected level. Though he has
already retired once before, it's going to be weird seeing the NHL without
the Magnificent One for the first time in a long time.

*******************
VERSION 2.2 CHANGES

-St Louis trades ERIC BOGUNIECKI to Pittsburgh for STEVE POAPST

FEDOROV.

a bit fuzzy as to whether or not the LNAH is considered professional or not)
-Free Agent ERIC FICHAUD is OOR playing in the LNAH (He might be considered
NHL retired, I'm not sure)
-Free Agent SIMON LAJEUNESSE is OOR playing in the LNAH (not surprising to see
all the Quebecois goalies going there without an NHL team to play for)

-Free Agent VLADIMIR ORSZAGH is playing for Lulea of the Elitserien
-Free Agent MICHEL PICARD is OOR playing in the LNAH

*******************
VERSION 1.8 CHANGES
*******************
-Vancouver trades FEDOR FEDOROV to the Rangers for JOZEF BALEJ

current roster. (unless of course you moved him there already with other

OOR. However, he is a Restricted Free Agent and is still a Capital in terms of
NHL status
-Anaheim's TONY MARTENSSON is playing this season with Linkoping in Elitserien.
He is still property of Anaheim though.
-Atlanta's TOMMI SANTALA is playing this season with Jokerit of SM-Liiga, but

rights status regarding the Blue Jackets

-Los Angeles' STEVE KELLY is playing foR Mannheim of the DEL this year. His
rights are still owned by Los Angeles
-Los Angeles TOMAS ZIZKA is OOR playing in the Czech Republic this year. 
-Nashville's JAN LASAK is a Free Agent

They are Nashville's minor league club, but Matteucci is not a part of the 
Predators system. I guess that makes him a Free Agent
-New York Rangers KAREL RACHUNEK is OOR playing in Russia this year. He is
a Restricted Free Agent and is still Rangers property.
-Philadelphia's STEVE GAINEY is playing for San Antonio in the AHL this year.
This minor league deal does not make him a part of the Phoenix Coytoes system.

Penguins property though.
-Pittsburgh's ROSS LUPASCHUK is playing for Mora of the Elitserien this year.

he is an RFA and is still technically part of the Pens' system.
-San Jose's TAVIS HANSEN is OOR playing in Austria this year.
-Tampa Bay's NIKITA ALEXEEV is OOR playing in Russia this year. He is still
a part of the Lightning system, as he is a Restricted Free Agent.

year. He is still part of the Capitals organization though.
-Washington's DARCY VEROT is a Free Agent.
-Washington's MIROSLAV ZALESAK is OOR playing in the Czech Republic. He's still
Caps property though.
-Karpat (SM-Liiga) goalie PEKKA RINNE is playing for the Nashville Predators
AHL team in Milwaukee. You can bring him over from Karpat to Nashville if you
want.
-Chicago's LASSE KUKKONEN is playing this season in Karpat of SM-Liiga. He is
still a part of the Blackhawks' organization though.
-On a side note: Nashville's DENIS ARKHIPOV is OOR as already noted in an 
earlier update, but I forgot to mention that he is still Nashville property.

There are several players whose fates I am uncertain about right now. They are:

Mike Farrell (Nashville)
Joe Hulbig (New Jersey)
Jody Hull (Ottawa)
Mike Peluso (Philadelphia)
Dwayne Hay (Tampa Bay)
Roman Tvrdon (Washington)

I believe they are all Free Agents becuase none of them appear to be playing

===============================================================================
4) International Roster Changes [04INR]
===============================================================================
There are 12 teams competing in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy.
Those teams are divided up into two pools, and teams are seeded from 1 through
12. Seeding appears in brackets after the country name

Pool A: Canada (1), Czech Republic (4), Finland (5), Germany (8), 
Switzerland (9), Italy (12)

Pool B: Sweden (2), Slovakia (3), USA (6), Russia (7), Latvia (10),
Kazakhstan (11)

All 12 of those nations are present in NHL 06. However, Latvia, Kazakhstan, 
Switzerland, and Italy will very few of its players in the game, if any at all.
Since I'm not a CAP genius, and there is a very good chance that I'll have 
never seen any of those missing players play at all,I cannot provide you with 
CAPs for the missing players. Additionally, since LeatherFace is now charging 
for requested CAPs, I don't know if he will be doing any of them without asking
for payment. In that case, although I will post the roster when I find it, I 
might suggest that you fill in the real players that you can, and leave the 
rest of the roster as the fake players that are on those teams by default. At 
least that way the names sound good.

When you want to move players over, use the duplication trick I mentioned 
earlier in this guide. Here's a quick refresher:

1) Get a created team (you might want to make a new one, since you'll want
a place to hold any players you need to remove from the international squads)

2) Using the create team's roster selection menu (the last step in making a 
team), add the players you intend to duplicate (the guys who are on the olympic
roster).

3) when you have finished that,exit the create team mode and go to roster
management. 

4) Trade the actual olympians from your created team to the international
squad of choice, while also trading back non-olympians from the international
team to the created one. If you come to a point where you don't have enough
non-olympians on the international team to trade over and make the created
team's roster minimum of 18 skaters and 2 goalies, return to the create team
mode, and edit that team to add a couple of more players from anywhere. This
way you don't have to trade people from somewhere else and risk screwing up
another roster.

That's it. 

Now, below is a mini table of contents. It will have each of the 12 teams
and a search code to skip to that team. All teams will be separated by 
position (goalie,defenceman, forward). Players who need to be added to the team
will have their team of origin listed so you can find them easily. All teams 
will have  a list of players who need to be subtracted from the original roster
in the game, and a list of players who need to be added and from what team.
Use the duplication trick described above to move them over)

Since the olympics are over, I can now give you completed rosters for all teams
All team names I give are accurate according to updated in-game rosters. This 
means that some elite league players will be listed on a different team than 
the real world olympic list (for example, the real olympic list has Mika 
Hannula from Sweden on HV-71, but in the game he's on Malmo since the elite 
league rosters are from last year.)

Additionally, I will try to fill in the names of players who were selected, but
did not participate (such as Miikka Kiprusoff for Finland), so you can have
a roster that lets you ice the actual team and the intended team at the same
time. I will also (where able) list any taxi squad members who are in this game
please note that this may not be possible, since "official" olympic rosters
don't include the taxi squad members. If you know the taxi squad players for
a team I didn't fill in, or you know a good site that lists them, please let
me know. 

Notation: 

-Players who are not in the game and need to be created are written in all CAPS

-Players requiring a CAP, but have one made for the NHL already, will have a *
in front of their name

-Players who are a part of the team's taxi squad will have *TAXI* written after
their name

-Players who were on their country's original roster but pulled out due to 
injury will have "X-" before their name. In brackets after will be the name of
the player who replaced them (that player will also already be listed in the
roster.)

Teams with "UPDATED" listed have been changed to reflect post-olympic info.
Other teams have yet to be changed.

Switzerland [04swi]
*****************

A little change for Switzerland. Since most of the roster isn't available,
I'll just list the roster by itself. Players who aren't CAPs (the ones whose
names aren't written in capital letters) are all already on the team. The only
CAP that we have already made for the game is Mark Streit of Montreal, so add
him. The rest of it you'll either have to come up with on your own, or make
due with the existing roster. Maybe if I get time later I'll go through this
roster in more detail and sort out who on the in-game swiss roster is a real
player and who isn't. Until then, this is the best I can do.

Latvia [04lat]
*****************
See my notes for Switzerland for info on how to deal with the Latvian roster.
For this team, you have no ready-made CAPs, and all the Latvian players who
are in the game and on the real roster are already on the game's Latvian team.

Once again, I might look through and pick out the real Latvians eventually.
Until then, this should do. Besides, how many of us can profess to know a lot
about the Latvian national team anyway? I know I can't, and not by choice
either.

Kazakhstan [04kaz]

We're doing things a little different here. Since almost all of the in-game
Kazak roster is fake, I'm not going to bother with a list of additions and
subtractions, since it would be pointless to list practically every player 
present on the subtractions list, followed by an entirely fresh roster of CAPs
right after it. So I'll just list the real Kazak roster.

5) Elite League Roster Changes [05ELR]
===============================================================================

Key Prospects
-------------
The following is a list of NHL prospects that can be found in the
various elite leagues. It has some players from the most recent NHL draft, and
a few other notable players from previous drafts. This is very much a work in
progress, so if you think you know of a prospect that is missing, please e-mail
me. You will find repeats in this section of players that are listed in the
NHL Roster Changes section (such as Yan Stastny or Henrik Lundqvist).

NOTE: Much of this list is taken from the prospect lists at hockeysfuture.com,
and as such it is not my opinion on the chances of any of these players to 
actually make their NHL clubs. Many are extremely low on the prospect chain,
and are longshots or no-shots to come over to North America, and some have
even stated that they do not intend to even try to make their NHL organization
(as is the supposed case with Jesse Niinimaki) they are only on this list 
as a matter of completeness. 

Format: <name> [position] (NHL Club) - (Elite League - Team) *Probability*

Ratings may need editing if you plan on moving some prospects to the NHL.

NEW IN VERSION 1.8: The "probability key"! 

This is my very unscientific, and completely biased opinion on the chances that
each prospect has of making it to the NHL in some capacity. This is designed
to help you judge which players to move to their NHL clubs, and who is on this
list purely for completion purposes. Of course, I'm not a prospect guru, nor
do I have a ton of info about prospects for every single organization. I get
a lot of this by reading the reports on Hockey's Future, as well as some 
questioning of prospect experts for their respective teams. Here is the key
you need to know:

*NHL/AHL* = Player is already on an NHL or AHL roster. They should be moved 
over immediately. Most of these players will also be listed in NHL roster 
changes section. Examples include Robert Nilsson and Petteri Nokelainen 
(already on the Islanders roster) or Staffan Kronwall (playing for the Maple 
Leafs AHL affiliate)

*Lock* = Player WILL come over at some point or another in the future. They are
not listed in the NHL roster changes section because they're techincally not
over here yet, but I would suggest you move them over for accuracy in long-term
dynasty play. Examples include Tuukka Rask (He will be the Maple Leafs goalie
of the future) or Anze Kopitar (went to Kings training camp but returned to
Sodertalje)

*High* = It is highly likely that this player will crack an NHL line-up in the
course of their career. Of course, these are also players who may decide to
stay in their native countries, or who have a realistic chance of not coming
over for a variety of other reasons (prospect pool depth of the NHL club, 
unpredticable play, etc). The best example I can think of is Magnus Kahnberg
of Carolina, who has the tools to come and play, but might prefer to stay
in Sweden.

*Medium* = It is entirely possible the player never sees the light of day in
North America, but they could still take an NHL/AHL job if they wanted to badly
enough.

*Low* = Don't hold your breath to see these guys in an NHL or AHL jersey in
the future. These guys either lack much of the skill sets 
necessary for the North American game, or are extremely comfortable staying at 
home.

*Longshot* = Will probably only make it over if the planets align during a
solar eclipse on the day of a blue moon. They either have none of the requisite
skills for NHL or AHL hockey, or their career goal might have been to play in
the national league all along.

NOTE: these preliminary ratings are based mostly on the Hockey's Future reports
because I don't want to wait to get responses on every one of them from other
people before I get the guide ready to go. If you have an opinion to add about
some of these prospects, feel free to contact me and do so.

NOTE 2: Please remember that these ratings are purely indicative of how likely
a player is to come over to the NHL or AHL during their careers. It IS NOT a 
list of potential. Please, DO NOT e-mail me saying that so-and-so is a high
end prospect and got the same rating as so-and-so2 who is a lesser prospect.
Jesse Niinimaki might have more talent than, say Andreas Jamtin, but my grade
of *medium* means that there is a moderate chance that either one of them
comes to play in the NHL or AHL at some point (Niinimaki would probably be a
*High* grade, if not for the fallout he has had with the Oilers organization.)

PART 2: VACATED NHLERS
This mini portion of the guide lists all the NHL players I found still on their
Elite League teams from last year. It's a weird collection, as it seems that
only Elitserien and SM-Liiga still have NHLers on their teams, and there are 
mostly only Swedish NHLers left in Elitserien, and Fins in SM-Liiga. The DEL 
doesn't appear to have any of it's NHL lockout players (not even Germans like 
Sturm) still present.

NOTE: You DO NOT need to move these players to their NHL clubs. This list is
simply meant to show you what players do not belong on the elite league rosters
for this season. Do with them whatever you want if would prefer not to have 
them on the elite league teams when you play a season with one.

===============================================================================
6) NHL Team Reports [06NTR] *NEW*
===============================================================================

Replacing the player edits section will be this new feature, NHL team reports.
Each update, I hope to add at least one, hopefully more, teams to the section.
You fill find regular strength line combos here, along with lists of certain
players to keep an eye on for various reasons. All teams will have the 
following format:

~~~~~~~~~~
Lines: Lines will be listed as forward lines 1-4, defensive pairings 1-3, 
starting goalie, backup goalie, depth goalie (if applicable). All lines are
listed as LW-C-RW according to play lineups (if I have a player who the game
lists as a RW lined up at LW, then he's still to be put on the Left Wing.).
Defensive pairings are Left Defenceman, Right Defenceman.

***************
NOTE: Lineups are projections by observers of that team of how the lines would
look under ideal conditions where there are no injuries to players and where
there are no players in the minor leagues on conditioning stints. Some players
may also be called up from the minors if their demotions are deemed to be
anomolies (like Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry of the Ducks).

Some teams (like the Islanders) don't always roll 4 lines, instead using 3
units. In those cases, someone (myself or an observer of that team) will 
extrapolate a 4th line for you to use.

Also, in the absence of CAPS for certain players, I've had to tweak the lines
slightly. 

So take these lineups with a grain of salt, because just about every team in
the league is juggling most of their lines on a game-by-game basis, and I just
put something together that provided a mixture of consistant lines (like the
Sens' first line of Heatley-Spezza-Alfredsson) and probable possibilities. 

IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO PRODUCE GAME-ACCURATE LINES ON A REGULAR BASIS, 
OTHERWISE I'D BE UPDATING EVERY SINGLE DAY. IF I'VE MISSED A REGULAR LINE,
CONTACT ME PLEASE. IF YOU BELIEVE THAT CERTAIN PLAYERS 'SHOULD' BE TOGETHER,
BUT AREN'T, I PROBABLY WON'T CHANGE IT. 

ALSO NOTE THAT CHEMISTRY IS IGNORED FOR THE PURPOSES OF THESE LINES. IF THAT
RESULTS IN A LOW CHEMISTRY SETUP, YOU CAN MAKE THE CHANGES YOURSELF IF YOU WANT

***************

~~~~~~~~~~
Key Players: This section will be divided up to note several classes of key
guys for your team.

-Stars: Any player who has the star icon underneath them will be listed here.
These players are usually rated 85 and over for NHL clubs.

-Key prospects: Any players under the age of 25 with 80 or more potential are
listed here. In Dynasty Mode, these guys are the lifeblood of your team.

-Aging Veterans: Players older than 35 are listed here. These guys are risks
to retire in Dynasty Mode, so don't always bank on them being around for more
than a couple of years.

-Sleeper picks: These are guys who can be productive, but aren't in the other
3 categories. They aren't necessarily high rated, or stars, but they are good
guys to know about when you're playing against a friend who isn't necessarily
an obsessive hockey nut like I am.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Team Strengths: Here I'll look at the best aspects of the team, so you know 
what you can rely on when you use them.

Team Weaknesses: Obviously here I'll point out faults in the team's makeup
that you can correct with trades and signings in Dynasty Mode.

NOTES: I will not be doing the following:

-Supplying team overall ratings. Ratings will depend on your decisions for
all lines on the team. Putting together different powerplay or PK units will
change things, and there are just far too many variables for me to venture
guesses at what the most likely rating would be.

-Listing player styles (scorer, playmaker, etc) or skill levels (1-3 stars).
This can change almost randomly during Dynasty play, and when you edit guys.
It would be confusing if I branded someone a playmaker, then you acquire them
and find out they're a scorer instead.

-Chemistry levels. See the point about player styles. If those differ, so does
chemistry.

Also note that my lineups include CAPs. They will have their names written in
CAPITAL LETTERS. this includes any CAP that is listed in this guide, even if
EA updates added them to the game. Also note that I am using the edits from
Biller's guide, including the ones that used to be in this guide. If you are
not editing players, then players in the prospects, stars, or sleepers category
may not match up with what you have.

center as well)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TEAM ANALYSIS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
STRENGTHS: Anaheim has a very good goaltending tandem in J-S Giguere and Ilja
Bryzgalov. The depth at center isn't half bad either, and Brent, Ryanm, 
Getzlaf, Lupul, and Perry give the Ducks a quintet of talented offensive 
forwards for the future. Ozolinsh and Scott Niedermayer are both very capable 
offensive defencemen, Giguere and Bryzgalov are set for yeras between the pipes


WEAKNESSES: There's not a huge amount of firepower up and down this lineup.
Guys like Marchant, Rob Niedermayer, Pahlsson, Wright, and McDonald are all
solid players, but are not reliable and consistant offensive threats. The 
prospects you have are still raw and are not ready to carry the team yet.
With Carney in his mid 30s, and Ozolinsh and Marshall fairly close, defensive
depth is a concern, with only Rome on the horizon.

Sleeper Picks

D Andy Sutton - Not exactly the fleetest of foot, but an effective shutdown

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TEAM ANALYSIS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
STRENGTHS: Scoring goals shouldn't be a problem with the Thrashers. Kovalchuk,
Hossa, Bondra, Savard, and Kozlov are all capable scorers, and the top two lines
can probably outscore almost any in the league. Goaltending should also not be
the problem it has in real life for Atlanta, as Lehtonen and Dunham are both 
solid stoppers, and especially Lehtonen can carry this team for years.

Weaknesses: Defensively Atlanta is suspect. de Vries, Sutton, Havelid, and 
Modry are good, but they aren't a spectacular top 4, and it's not exactly 
smooth sailing from there. There also aren't exactly a lot of prospects coming
down the pipeline outside of your key current contributors of Lehtonen, Hossa,
and Kovalchuk. The bottom two lines aren't terrible, but the players on the 
wings aren't spectacular by any means. The defensive corps is particularly
slow.

Sleeper Picks
-------------
Josh Langfeld - a good all-purpose checker who can even contribute slightly
on a scoring line if need be.

Kyle McLaren - San Jose's best defenceman, a good two-way guy with bone-crushing
hitting ability

Vesa Toskala - This backup goalie could start on most teams.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TEAM ANALYSIS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
STRENGTHS: Wow, I'm certainly writing this differently now that the big trade
went through. The Sharks have the capablity to put out a pair of big, strong
scoring lines anchored by Thornton and Marleau. These two centers can carry this
team on their backs up front. On defence the squad isn't as solid now that the
former big 4 (McLaren, Hannan, Stuart, Rathje) has been reduced to a big 2 (only
Hannan and McLaren remain), but there's still a nice balance of offence and 
defence on the back end. Goaltending is perhaps the strongest point for the
Sharks. Nabokov's virtual counterpart is not nearly as inconsistant as he has
been in real life. Toskala can also start on a lot of teams, and Schaefer is
a highly effective backup even though he won't be likely to see extended time
at the starters' position.

WEAKNESSES: As I said, the defensive corps won't strike fear into anyone like it
used to. The checking lines are still solid, but the shuffling out of Sturm and
Primeau has really stretched the lines thin and accentuated the absence of 
Alex Korolyuk.

Play by Play name: Doug (if you want, you can fake it out to say "murray".
Enter "Murray" as the first name, then re-enter the first name "Doug", but use
one of the special characters (press L2 on teh PS2 to access them, don't know
about other systems, but the button should be listed) so that either the o or u
are accented. The CPU doesn't recognize the name with an accent in it, and then
"Murray" stays as the pbp name because it was the last first name that made
sense. You can do this with any player who has a last name that can also be
a first name. Try it with Jimmy Howard, Mike Richards [use "Richard"], and 
others)

Contact Info
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you want to reach me, you can e-mail me at thenemesis15{AT}shaw{DOT}ca

I will field questions about the game, about transactions, about the actual
NHL, and I will also take created teams that you submit, provided they are
THEMED. I will not take random teams of talented players, or your dynasty mode
team.

I am also extremely interested in hearing from you if you have edited any 
players you believe have unrealistic stats. It would be a monsterous task for
me to try and go through the entire league and edit everyone, so I could use
all the help I can get.

In Closing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I want to thank LeatherFace61 for his spectacaular work on making the players
who are missing from the game. Without it, there would be many questions as to
where is Sidney Crosby.

More thanks coming as people contribute
