OK folks here you go. These are the re-rates.
We are using the same package that we have for several years.
I will offer the usual comments and ask that you keep them in mind as you review:
- Do not concern yourself with how much a player has increased or decreased in ratings. This is misleading. More look at if they've moved up or down in terms of how they are ranked against their peers.
- No ratings package is perfect. We have not tweaked these nor will we. That is a slippery slope that introduces subjectivity into something. Instead we will all live with the mostly good, a little bit of bad, with a 3rd party package
- Keep in mind the OVR is just a formulaic total of each attribute. OVR by itself doesn't define how good a player is in the sim, the individual attributes are. Moreover, certain attributes can be reasons why some guys are rated higher. As an example, the ST rating is based on the player's size, so bigger players get a boost from that. There are examples of goalies and dmen who have high OVR, but driven a lot by a high ST rating.
- Players who didn't play AHL/NHL last season are likely not going to be included, and won't have playable ratings for next season. Per my post the other day it seems like the cut off is 10 games for this package.
You are welcome to discuss the ratings, but remember - we aren't adjusting these.

Up next will be RFA and UFA grids. Timing TBD as I have a work trip coming up and then the draft soon follows. I will try to complete before the draft, but don't expect it for at least a week or two.
Trading can resume.
