Just started playing the game. All offline so far.

Be A Pro - Thank God the sim to next shift option is back. I also really like the idea that you choose your weekly workouts (or to skip them) and that you gain experience based on the things you do. I dislike that you lose experience for things (like losing a face-off) but I can live with it. Coach feed back is better but still stupid in many areas.

Be A GM - A.I. is still an overall mess. My biggest beef is that scouting is still a mess. Why do you only have one scout? We can you not have a team of scouts and build your own list. The timer for making a great addition, as is the trading during it, but the whole scouting system is idiotic. I also have issues with the AI making bad decisions (Conner McDavid is a 93 in his third year and is still assigned to the AHL until I bring him up). Trading is better but still sometimes laughable. But who am I to complain about trading Nikita Nikitin for Jarome Iginla straight up. Yakupov for Lucic and Schultz for Hamonic were funny too (yes, I'm playing with "that" team).;

The morale system is a nice idea but fails. It's random and repetitive. I bring a guy up from the AHL and his AHL teammates lose moral because he's left the team? The team loses morale because I trade Mark Fayne and sign Victor Hedman? If this sticks around it needs a lot of work.
