Scouting is completed!
I'll contact the managers next week, right now I will focus on next week game.

Here are some stats for the different ages to give you an idea of where your player stands:

36yo (4 players):
max TSP - 113
max OSP - 93
max ISP - 57

35yo (3 players):
max TSP - 126
max OSP - 92
max ISP - 59

34yo (1 player):
max TSP - 141
max OSP - 90
max ISP - 51

33yo (18 players):
max TSP - 133
max OSP - 97
max ISP - 57

32yo (21 players):
max TSP - 131
max OSP - 97
max ISP - 60

31yo (7 players):
max TSP - 129
max OSP - 90
max ISP - 59

30yo (14 players):

29yo (15 players):

28yo (8 players):

25yo (8 players):

24yo (18 players):
max TSP - 116

23yo (21 players):

As you can see we have some "holes". Great years (28/29yo, 24/25yo, 22/23yo) with others not so great (31yo, 26yo).
I think we are especially lacking in the big department, 62 ISP for the best player (that has poor secondaries) is too low to be competitive at the highest level of NT, we need bigs with at least 65 total ISP. So what I will do is promise a roster spot for the first player to reach 65 ISP, no matter his age or secondaries (I'm looking at you generation of 24yo!).
Guards are much more consistent except for the 30-31yo, that's less of a worry on the long term as far as I can see.

Keep up the good work Canada!

Does anyone know if luxury tax (33298) is connecting every few weeks to keep his team alive or if he just gave up recently?
He didn't connect since May 10, and if he's going bot we need to save Rio Rafferty.

Edit: I just realized I'll have to save Jarvis as well...! And his GS will be low for a large part of the season, that's a shame

Alright, lineup is almost set for game 1. I added Jarvis and Rafferty to the lineup to save both of them. Beanerz is going in a few weeks, and Jarvis is the best canadian guard anyway, so that's not really a loss of a spot.
Rafferty is to young to make the NT, but he is our best trainee by far, he needs to be saved. As we have no news from luxury tax (last connection at about the same time beanerz last connected, I didn't want to take the risk).
Both of them will have the reserve spot until their GS goes up.

Be prepare to buy both of them in about 3-4 weeks! I'll post a message here.

Bigs are selected, going with 4 players to start the season (with Rafferty later when his GS is up). All 4 of them had good minutes management this week so there was really no question about who made the team.
2 players for the SF spot, also not really a heart braking decision there, both of them deserve the spot.
I'm still undecided on the guards, GS management is only so-so with lots of potential players, so if anyone wants to help me decide, contact me via bb-mail!
I'll probably make the final decision tomorrow evening so that the players are on the team before the economic update and their owner can benefit from the additional merchandise.

Thanks, Fwinns!
You did a wonderful job.
Really appreciate this.
Keep up the good work.

Nice depth list and thoughts on the roster. Good luck this season!

I started contacted all managers of 27yo and under potential players.
Thanks for all that answered already, by the end of the week we'll have a better picture of the NT in 5-10 seasons.

In the mean time, if anyone has a potential NT player (young or not), feel free to contact me whenever you want! I probably already have your player skills (if he's 21yo+), so I can get back to you quickly and tell you were your player is in the depth chart.
