Rookie Cup Winners

Boedker-Backstrom-Belskey
Cooke-R. Robataille-Dupuis
Hall-Kadri-Grachev
Ulmer-Ton-Hentunen

Lidstrom-Karlsson
Keith-Doughty
Del Zotto-R. Ellis

Miller
Pavelec

Canada just got owned. Karlsson with the OT winner, fourth shutout for Miller. Backstrom also had an OT winner. My favorite method? Shoot from the point. Once I figured out Doughty was scratched and I could put him into the lineup, and that I suck at defense and should never switch to my defensemen when they're defending a rush, then I finally put it all together.

Vicariously defeating Canada, oh yes.

Your 2009 Stanley Cup Champions

Alex Ovechkin-Nicklas Backstrom-Mike Knuble
Zach Parise-Patrice Bergeron-Ryan Callahan
Jay Pandolfo-Jarret Stoll-Scott Thornton
Pat Rismiller-David Steckel-Matt Bradley

Mike Green-Ryan Suter
Brian Pothier-Marc Staal
Alexandre Picard-Dan Girardi

Tomas Vokoun
Brent Johnson

After this I re-signed Knuble and Steckel, let go of Thornton and Johnson, traded Stoll for salary cap reasons (for a package with Sam Gagner), and signed Craig Anderson to be my backup. I then simmed the season but missed the playoffs, even after trading for Braydon Coburn and Duncan Keith.
