How to unlock the Poached achievement in NHL 11 - Definitive Guide

Simply Start Be A GM mode and when signing free agents, keep hitting the RB until you come to a list of only RFA. Sign a free agent and be sure to give him more than what he is asking or his team will match your offer sheet. Also, be ready to give up your 1st and 3rd picks of that year. Once the player decides to sign with you and his former team doesn't match the offer sheet, your achievement will pop!

Sorry. Level 3 is under the Compensation part of the menu. You have to give up a 1st and 3rd round pick to sign a Level 3 RFA.

I've had that problem before. You might have to clear the NHL 11 save file and your cache as well. It didn't happen to me but it did work for a friend. Devin Setoguchi is who I believe I signed for the cheevo.

You have to offer the FA more than he's asking in order to not have your offer matched.

During the FA signing during Be a GM Mode, you must sign a RFA to a contract that makes you give up a 1st and 3rd Round Pick in return. These RFAs are usually 25 years of age or younger and are asking for $2.5 million or more per year. Add me if you have any more questions. I'll be on for a while tomorrow and frequently check my messages when away.

Not entirely true... but very close. I did this last night and the Achievo did not pop. I assume because it was not a Level 3 or above RFA. I looked in the menu's to determine where this "level 3" is stated, but I didn't find anything.

Thoughts?

For those that didn't have Marc Staal available like myself. I found Devin Setoguchi of the SJS. If starting a new Be a GM he was available on day 1 of Free Agent Signings.

This achieve confused me a bit for a while, because I was going into the Free Agent menu. You have to search RFA through the Contracts selection of the phone/menu. It will of course bring up your team, but you can scroll through other teams by pressing either LB or RB. (TY ScottMacFreedom)

Thanks to Bugsmasher for this tip before the site crashed.

Level 3 is under the Compensation part of the menu. You have to give up a 1st and 3rd round pick to sign a Level 3 RFA. A lot of people have suggested going after Marc Staal of NYR if you are just starting up GM mode. If not, just look for a player who is in the "Level 3" salary requirements and is a RFA and you should get the achievement to pop.

Good luck!

I'm assuming you have to have the salary cap option turned on for this.

That I am not sure of. I believe you do... but I can't say 100% as I have never played with the salary cap off before.

Start a new Be A GM mode with Colorado (they have a lot of salary cap space) and make sure Salary Cap is off. Then simulate for about 2 weeks until the first day that you can sign RFA’s. Then look for the player with the most teams interested or the highest overall and offer them at least double what they are asking. Then just simulate for about a week more and wait to see if the offer goes through. If it doesn't, just start a new GM mode and try again. Its sort of random which players will be RFA's. But you should have it in less than 5 tries.

In general manager mode, after the draft, the next phase is signing contracts. With OCA (restricted free agents), at first only the team in which the player belongs can sign, the next phase is ours, now any team can sign contracts with OCA, for this go to contracts, sort by contracts for this year, so that unsigned contracts are at the top, above them there will be OCA (OSA is written in green) if they are in the team you are watching, and we go through the teams, look for a player for 2-3 million. We offer him 5-6 and after signing the contact, the trophy is yours.
