I was running an expansion team, the Portland Pirates, and prior to the Expansion Draft I had made several offers on free agents, many of them defensemen. They were veterans, who would suit up for my NHL club and also many younger free agents that would stock my farm team.
When the draft started, I selected many veteran blue liners with no intention of every having them play for me or my minor league team. I planned to flip a few of them for late draft picks just to get as many picks as I possibly could for the next years draft.
The process of individually shopping those guys, from team to team, asking for a 5th rounder, waiting for them to say NO WAY! then tweaking it to a sixth, or a seventh was so incredibly tedious. When I finally did find takers, I would accept whatever the trade was out of exhaustion rather then waiting to see if there was a better offer out there.
In real life, a GM emails every team in the league and says PLAYER X is available and then he gets a few offers and picks the best one ... That reality is certainly not duplicated in FHM2.
