A lot of work during the TOTY weeks. I removed 99 Datsyuk, 95 Richards, ASG 97 Crosby, MOV Bobrowsky, MOV Karlsson, MOV Keith, MOV Stamkos and MOV McDavid for lower rated players plus I switched MOV Doughty for TOTY Doughty. Some changes were for more syergies, some for just a change and others just because I want to play the rest of the season with players I like.
** I am loving this team. Here are my concerns/plans
-Bucyk is a temp for the 2TT, I am hoping to replace with Kaberle soon
-I got MOV Kessel back when he was an 89, I really thought he would crack TOTY. Not sure if I want to sell now and upgrade (to Stamkos or someone) or just hold and hope for some playoff upgrade. Either way he is a beast, super fast with wicked shot so he's fine

Still no Stamkos but a nice team. A lot of speed and slap shou accuray on the left wing. With the right synergies you should be on a top level in most relevant categories.
How did you manage to get a TOTY Tarasenko? According your name I always assumed you`re from Finland?
I have no more MOV Stamkos either as you may have seen a few posts before when I showed my final team. I needed some change for the rest of the season and removed Stamkos, 99 Datsyuk, MOV McDavid, and Richards. MOV Ovechkin has taken the command on the left wing for long time and TOTY Pastrnak, TOTY Simmonds and TOTY Scheifele a more than substitutes.
I may even think about to remove Ovechkin (not because he is bad - he is the best shooter in the game, even better than Stamkos -but just for a change). In that matter, when you compare your MOV Simmonds with your MOV Panarin, what speaks for Panarin and what for Simmonds? I`m still hesitiate with Panarin cause I already have one small right hand forward with TOTY Pastrnak (who is excellent) and Pasta has the better stats (without POISE) compared to Panarin.
@Finch1965
- I am from NY, ESPO is an abbreviation of my last name, I am Italian
- Simmonds is probably my favorite right handed forward on my entire team
- I like Panarin, but he doesn't "do it" for me really, he puts up points and scores obviously but I just expected a bit more out of him. I got him for a very good price and his synergies worked
- Simmonds is all around great, and believe it or not, I think he only has 4 PMI in like 30 games. Very fast, very physical, will snipe, will 1T, defend well.. he will never come off the team. I certainly wouldn't take him out to add panarin, no way

So I was completely wrong about where you come from and this of course explains how you get TOTY Tarasenko.
MOV/TOTY Simmonds is indeed a great card. I was really surprised but in the end he was the one who squeezed Stamkos out of my team. And I have no problems with penalties, too.
What you describe about Panarin comes close to my experience with his prior TOTY version. He was solid but not flashy, he scored on a regular base but not like Stamkos or Ovechkin, who sometime score 3-4 times per game. So there remains only one desirable right hand with Laine but I dont have fun to invest so much so late. This season is almost over and I assume my other right hands will do the job well, till the simmer starts.
