Problem is this, hard to say who the worst prospect team would be, when EA does not include most of the prospects out there, due to them being KHL, USJHL, NCAA, etc. So a team may have a bunch of prospects playing in various leagues around the world, but in the game those prospects are missing. Which is why I use Vasy's rosters and then move some players around. I also like team building, so I usually do my own version of draft lottery and create a new team, then fill the rest with unsigned prospects or free agents. This year, since they announced that there will be 2 new teams coming in, I will likely create both teams and do 2 draft lotteries. After which I will create my own team and use that team with free agents and left over prospects. Which will allow for a full team building experience and see how my development compares to the development of Houston and Atlanta.
IRL I would say Winnipeg is pretty shallow for prospects, Edmonton also lacks prospect depth, American team-wise, Vegas is also shallow. Not sure how these will look in the game though, due to the aforementioned problem of not being very league inclusive.
I should not have used the term "prospects" in that question. I am just trying to figure out who are the worst overall teams in terms of personnel, draft picks and cap space.
Were Winnipeg and Edmonton really ranked that lowly during pre-season? I’ll admit, I’ve just gotten way more into hockey this past season(a big part of that was purchasing NHL 25 and really beginning to understand more of the nuances of the game-though I’m still struggling to figure out what the hell constitutes offsides, though I think I am close to understanding it). Was there that much movement with those two teams that they ended up big time contenders for the cup? Sorry for the noob question.
