Thanks.
why not just add crosby, ovechkin, stamkos on your team for 10 years and 500k for them at the same time?

Hmm not that I know of. Would kinda take the fun out of the "draft" aspect, why not just take the first 26 draft picks?

Because for two of the three, they already have really long offers and I believe you can still edit their salaries anyways (and put Crosby/Ovechkin on a .5/long term contract already)

I was just hoping that it'd exist so I could keep up with the real signings (as oppose to most extensions in game being 1 year long and being subjected to the horrible salary calculator)

I'm not sure if they made a big change, but I'm noticing most of the wrist cheese goals from the high slot aren't going in as much. Players are still trying them constantly, but they don't go in as often. I like that a lot.

I still have 2 issues:

1) Why aren't we able to see what line players are putting out online?
2) Sometimes when I make a line change, the linechange box doesn't disappear in the bottom and it just stays up, locked. It goes away if you cycle through your lines again, but that's not ideal when youre going on a rush.

I was talking about my Be a GM team earlier in this thread. With all the glitches and lack of good rosters, Fantasy Draft is the way to go. I read this thread and alot of peoples complaints are completely avoided. I read this thread and its sad to see so many people not getting what they want from this game but im having a blast.

Bad news for people who want full accuracy....we might not see completely accurate AHL rosters until January as most of these players have to sign with the PHPA before they are put in the game.

Maybe we get lucky and these players all sign in the next few weeks. Right now my only option is to take the default rosters and edit them myself. Should only take me a solid week.

Right now I have an A- overall (P: A T: B S: A-) and have played 182 games, the game is currently showing that I do not have my superstar card for maintaining a B grade overall, and because of that it won't give me my legend card for getting the A- card. Has anyone had this issue? and is there anyway to fix this without resetting my character and starting over again.

Anyone else have this issue?

Started doing my own rosters this afternoon using PetrPuck's blog:

http://petrpuck.blogspot.com/

Lots of work, and hopefully I don't end up running into that stupid 'star players in the minors' glitch using the 9/20/2010 roster update as a base.

i hate how my starting goalies save % after like 20 games played is .843 and my backup is like .830

this has been played all on the patch... it really is quite annoying in some games where they get 4 goals on 7 shots.

I'm still like 15-7-0 record though. So don't say its because i suck.

I've noticed it as well. The AI in this game is completely unrealistic and provides corresponding results. The only way to challenge myself is to put the game on All-Star, and that is where I see such a discrepancy in User/CPU AI that it almost feels like I am being cheated.

The series has really hit a stale point.

i have all-star and i even modified my goalies (not the cpu's) to have like 3 notches more reaction speed ... and it still is rediculous where the opponents goalie will constantly get .910-.950 save % on me, and my goalie can muster up only a .800 on easier shots.

Its more frustrating when playing against a user controlled team and you out shoot your opposition 25-8. Dominate the game yet the other player uses cheese moves and wins 6-3... .250 save % I thought the game play updates were to help prevent this type of stuff from happening.

i think it's mainly since they reduced the cpu goalie movement speed to make it more comparable to human goalies?

anyone else noticing since the patch players just fall down randomly like fish a lot?

I just had a player fall in the opponent end, and slide on his stomach to the boards in my end till the whistle blew.

yea its hilarious. guys with low poise will start falling all over the place at the end of a game.


Has anyone had their game freeze up in BAGM mode? Whenever I try to make a trade right now I get an immediate freeze on the screen. I'm in my second season and really liking my team. Trying to trade Parise (91) for C. Wilson right now (84 A B- B) for a salary dump, the supply and demand of age, position and everything works perfect for both sides, and it looks like it gets accepted then screen freezes. So i tried with Regher for another D, same thing.

I am getting sick of manually rebooting everytime for troubleshooting the problem. I just uninstalled from machine but will have to chekc after the game tonight.
