EHM The Blue Line

Not sure if I'm doing it wrong or if the contracts of RFA's haven't been updated in the new DB? Lindholm, Rakell, Ristolainen, Trouba etc.

The rosters are as they were at the beginning of the season IRL. So no those haven't changed.

Fair enough, thank you for the responses.

Is there anyway to attach the spreadsheet here? Or should I upload it somewhere else? That would enable comparing different players and teams easily.

You can't attach a spreadsheet here directly. It has to be uploaded somewhere and given that link.
Well I don't need the spreadsheet of the NHL players as I know them like my own pockets. Or are you talking about something else?

Given the EHM Updater so easily exports CA/PA and all Attributes I don't think a link to a spreadsheet is really necessary (anyone wanting to validate anything and/or compare players and team can do so pretty easily IMO...at least that's what I do! HaHa)

CJ, I'm translating an interview with Denis Malgin and I then looked him up in our db... he has a CA of 130, to me it seems amazingly high.
He'd be in the top 20 in the KHL or so, while he scored less than half a point a game in Switzerland... Although I don't know what happens if you get him lower perhaps you have to balance things out with other players too
Just throwing it around.

Lauris Darzins from Dinamo Riga has CA of 128 - are you saying that he is a top 20 player in KHL too?

He was just recently demoted to the AHL but has been playing in the NHL. He should be compared to the league he is playing in.
perhaps a slight reduction but not more than 10 pts at the most

Well, definitely Darzins' CA needs updating, but in 2010-11 he was 16th KHL scorer and I'm sure you remember that he was darn good for those few years.

He have played 396 regular seasons games over 9 seasons in KHL and got 0,53 points per game, if we don't count 10/11 season where he averaged 0,98 points per game and 08/09 or debut season where he got only 0,29 points per game, then in all other seasons he made between 0,41 and 0,57 points per game and if we count only seasons in which he played at least 50% of matches (except 10/11 and 08/09) then he made between 0,47 and 0,57 points per game, so I would say that he have been pretty consistent performer, so, in my opinion, 10/11 season shouldn't be considered in argument for his CA, because even in his second best season he was far away from that level.

Well, first of all I have said that it needs updating. Second, I don't really think that X points means X CA, not only regarding Darzins but in general.

You brought up the fact that he was 16th best scorer in KHL six seasons ago, I just only pointed out that 10/11 season was an anomaly not a norm.

I tuned him down to 111. Anything else, we have a Russia thread

I think Malgin was ok in the beginning, not the worst forward they have.
Yeah he could be lowered a bit... maybe to 122?! Alessandro you can do it if you want. Reduce 22 attribute points off him as you see fit.

The NHL's PTO contract rules allow players on PTO to dress for games, right?

Shouldn´t Johan Franzen be sidelined and placed on IR with his concussion when I start a new game? He has only played two games since 2015, and both of them was last season.

-Jakub Voracek (also Flyers) shouldn't be a UFA in 2016. From 2016-2024 He should be making $8 250 000 with the Flyers.

I'm sure you've guessed what team I'm the GM of

A post today on the HFBoardsnoted "Just trying out my first season in EHM... Todd Bertuzzi is included in the HoF"

Bertuzzi's still in the 2016-17 TBL database as a Free Agent; he last played (only 2 games) in 2014-15 http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=369 and if he hasn't been already he should be retired https://www.google.ca/#q=todd+bertuzzi+ ... 8745229444

This newest update works well for me, there is no longer that problem about player histories having too much games, goals etc. Brilliant work!

I happened to notice that the NHL does not have right record holders on most career games etc. (for example Jaromir Jagr holds the record for most career points when it should have Greztky) Is there a possible solution to fix this little problem??

I also noticed Bertuzzi in the database as a player (though he retires during the first season and gets the HoF induction). Dany Heatley also is an active player (contracted to the Thomas Sabo Ice Tigers of DEL) even though he retired after the 2015-16 season. (sorry for the non-NHL error i just happened to mention over here)

What exactly goes into deciding whether or not to change a players attributes or do they get changed? I notice some players are a bit overrated while others are very underrated when it comes to point production. I would gladly like to help in the process if the help is needed. I'm all for making the game better.

I'm responsible for the NHL. One can never anticipate 100% how players will perform the next season IRL (rosters are made before season start usually). And you never know what kind of lines the game decides to use the player in. So many will under/overperform whatever you try to do.

If you want to, you can always contact me and discuss it further.

Well no of course you can't predict what is going to happen in the up coming season haha. I more so meant, if I guy has a break out year do you adjust attributes accordingly? I certainly will contact you. I'd love to help improve the rosters in any way that I can.

I'm trying not to do drastic changes to players. Just because a players has one great season of let's say ending up in Top 10 in scoring. But doesn't manage to do that anymore we can't just simply have him a Top 10 CA player in the whole league just because of that one season.

PS: I'm already done with the NHL for the 17/18 season.

Nothing drastic for sure for players that have one good season. I more so meant players that are established players but seem always lack in scoring. Although I hope some players that are new get boosts. Players like, Matthews, Marner and Nylander all deserve boosts in attributes.
