I dont know if this is the correct spot for this question but can anyone tell me where I can find Chris Conner? He plays for the stars (young call up hasnt played but like 5 or so games) He was signed by the Stars as a free agent. Played his college hockey at Michigan Tech. I cant find him by looking up his name. Maybe his name is faked or maybe he doesnt exist in the game i dont really know. any help would be appreciated. Thanks

If he's still a college guy then he will be 'faked'. In that case the easiest way to figure out who he is in the game is to look at their prospects and figure out who they have listed as drafted in his spot in his draft year.
If he's not in college still, you might not have him showing due to what database option you selected, if you didn't set it to full database then there's a possibility that's why he isn't showing for you.

Well he is not in college i know that much for sure. He has played in a handful of games for the Stars this season. But thanks for your help anyways. You may be right about the database. I thought I changed it but I dont recall for sure. Thanks for your help.

He also might be a player caught between liscensing agreements so that's why he ended up with a faked name (if he did). This happened for example with the Hawks who end up with a Peter Bilodeau instead of Mike Blunden. He's easy to spot though since he is still listed as playing for Erie and drafted #43 overall in 2005. If players weren't on either list to be cleared there wasn't anythng SI could do but fake them.
Looking though it seems Conner was born in 83 in Michigan so he should be easy to find even faked but I don't see him in my game even in a faked version it doesn't seem... faked players have all their info they are just named differently.

Yea I checked I did have database on full. The only thing I thought might work was finding who Dallas signed him from, but I guess they signed him outta college and he wasnt going to play for anyone until signed maybe. Anyways thanks for your help.
