Maybe Stamkos could be updated with a beard? He looks very young.

There has been a couple of comebacks before so maybe we'll just wait and see what happens.

Sure, for me there was no need to add many completely new players , but on my list are also a bunch of released ID's from non-existing players, including doubles and deceased guys.

Hope he can make use of them too.

Sometimes the list needs to be cleaned anyway, there's not an endless amount of free ID's.

Well, we just have to hope he will stay around this time.

So he just didn't care about my additions and continued like nothing has happened since he left.

Check the coach ID in editor (NHLview) and change it to correct one. Remember to save.

I thought the game would crash without correct amount of games for every team.

But if it works as you say, then there's no need to make any adjustments.

Nothing...

One of the busiest FA signing days I can remember

You could make Kuffner when you have time. He wasn't included in StamkosFan's pack.

Maybe it's important information when playing dynasty mode as older players may retire. I only play single seasons so it doesn't matter.

There's lot of information about players that the game doesn't even use, for example draft year and position, birth city, season-by-season stats etc.

I vaguely remember some older version(s) used to count career points and tell when reaching milestones when playing in season mode but not 09.

You should adjust the birth year of every player by taking off 10 years. I did the same five years ago and should do again now. It's just a lot of work

The game is built to think it's always 2009 (or maybe actually fall 2008), it doesn't recognize the real calendar.

There should not be a lot missing now, at least until the new season begins. Rookies making the cut can be made then by you two (or others if there are any).

Of course, some of the top picks of the draft can be made beforehand when/if you have time.

I think originally his ID was 852 when he was still playing but doesn't really matter. Leave it as it is.

Rick Tocchet's original ID was 852. No idea when and why it was changed.

There is discussion about it in my Elite faceplace thread. That's when I found out about it.

I have sent him message @Splinterice about using my spreadsheet as a basis for his future updates. Don't know if it will happen.

Maybe you should ask or at least tell Vojghi about new ID numbers so there will be no doubles.

I'm not updating the list anymore since he came back from the retirement.

Quote from greg88

That would be the best thing to do. I wish he'd been in touch with you about this. A possible mess must be avoided as soon as possible.

I sent a message to him @splinterice, hope he understands the situation as many recent CF's and photopacks are already using my numbers.

Sure there will be.

Actually if he just returned it would be better if he could use the numbers I've assigned to new guys.

Also I've removed a lot of duplicates and non-existing guys from the list since he departed.

Not good.

Ok, I didn't know he's come back.

So I will stop updating, no point making two versions.
