I just started a sandbox game with Chicago, mostly keeping the team unchanged (I traded some draft picks to get Trouba). My goal is to not get eliminated in the playoffs by Nashville, which shouldn't be too hard...

My problem is that my team sucks. Tactically, I am using the Puck Control and 2-3 Defenseive tactics. My lines are pretty standard from what the Hawks did this year: Panik-Towes-Hossa, Panarin-Anisimov-Kane, etc. Defensively, I have Keith-Trouba, Campbell-Seabrooks, TvR-Hammer. Intuitively to me, these are the correct lines and the correct tactics.

But my team sucks. Like, 5 shots on goal to 40 each preseason game. Somehow we've won a few, but its brutal to watch. So what am I doing wrong? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
