BTW, Spezza hates Chicago, thinks Jersey is waaaaay cooler. Better strippers, more gambling.

From the Rules section:

Some simple rules that must be adhered to when setting your lines are:

1. MINIMUM requirements are at least 3RW, 3LW, 3C (12 forwards in total), 6D, and 2 G. There must be 20 players altogether. When your roster is complete, "Roster Complete" will appear in the top right hand corner of the screen.

You don't have to play all 12 forwards, or 6 d men, but they need to be in the line up.

Sometimes the sim buggers up, sometimes the Editor doesn't save lines right. Whatever happened, it hopefully gets corrected next game so the Jets have all the players the sim needs it to have.
