When i filtered the pregame editor with this info. there was no player! how can this be?
Petr Nedved matches pretty good but he isnt swedish...

He could have negative potential value. Try search with his name

To make it sure i searched for him in the pregame editor and he wasnt there, so he has to be a regen! but now i start the saved game editor and see this:
Country: Sweden
PA:160
Primary Position: Center

can anybody help me?

Most of the regens from the very beginning of the game have somewhat random potentials. They have a certain number that will create the regen between a certain range of Potential Abilities. Try searching this:

-14 Potential will be between 90-160 (intended for very young, hard-to-predict players)
-15 Potential will be between 110-190 (intended for very young, hard-to-predict players)

It comes from here on the forum: http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi ... al+ability

Hope that helps

this helped alot! thx

when i search with -15
Peter Forsberg is the only result, but he is too small and too heavy 6ft 1in and 207lbs

-14 results
jonas johnson 6ft2in and 184lbs

jörgen jönsson 6ft and 196lbs

mats sundin (unlikely) 6ft 4in 229lbs

johan sundström
6ft 2in 196 lbs

REGEN is 6ft 2in 170lbs at 18 years

can left or right handed change for the regen? if no then sundin and sundström are out.

everyone has 17 consistency

i would tend to jonas johnson...

why do the early regens have random potential anyways?

Post by **philou21** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 9:33 pm

Regens got the same shooting hand and positions. But height and weight can vary from1 inches or a couple of lbs. So the first one might be it.

hcdfanatic83 · Post by **hcdfanatic83** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 9:53 pm

ya probably.

btw this regen thing is awesome!
it adds even more longevity.

mrt3991 · Post by **mrt3991** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 10:26 pm

In my experience, i've never found a regen with a different height or weight from the original player.

sometimes finding a regen is tricky. Another point to help you try to pinpoint who the regen is, with the saved and pre game editors, on the same page as height and weight, you can see the players offensive and defensive roles(# between 0-20). That will always stay the same as well.

You know i honestly dont have a cllue why they are randomized like that. Probably to give the game a little more variety when regens come in.

What I am noticing is on the regens their PA (Potential ability) is not as high as the original. Is that because they start out with such high stas in most cases? I am using Lida 3.0.

And I find it quite simple to figure out who is a regen of who...

Look up player in question in your saved game editor
Then open the pre-game editor
Filter pregame editor to nationality and main position to fit the player in question
Also start to filter potential ability with -15 to -15
Then compare the players found in the pregame to the player in question.
(If no player is found, change to -14 to -14, or 140 to 200, etc...you get the idea.

The following should be exactly the same

Height
Weight
Shoot/Catches
Position value (LD,RD, LW, C, RW)
Offensive Role Defensive Role

EXACTLY what i do as well. It's full proof and almost never incorrect. But i use this scale when searching the pregame editor:

-1 Potential will be between 1-20 (the worst young players, they will likely retire at a young age and keep getting recycled back into the regen pool)
-2 Potential will be between 10-40
-3 Potential will be between 30-60
-4 Potential will be between 50-80
-5 Potential will be between 70-100
-6 Potential will be between 90-120
-7 Potential will be between 110-140 (quite rare â€“ a good prospect with a decent chance of being a regular NHL player)
-8 Potential will be between 130-160 (rare â€“ a top prospect with a good chance of being a talented NHL player)
-9 Potential will be between 150-180 (very rare â€“ a top 10 prospect who is considered a canâ€™t miss NHL talent)
-10 Potential will be between 170-200 (extremely rare â€“ the top player available in a draft, but not every year)
-11 Potential will be between 20-80 (intended for very young, hard-to-predict players)
-12 Potential will be between 40-100 (intended for very young, hard-to-predict players)
-13 Potential will be between 60-130 (intended for very young, hard-to-predict players)
-14 Potential will be between 90-160 (intended for very young, hard-to-predict players)
-15 Potential will be between 110-190 (intended for very young, hard-to-predict players)

most of the time consitency is the same as well, or at least very close

Is it just me or do regens of good players start off somewhat ridiculously?

There's a 16 year old Russian in the CHL Import that has all greens for skating and a dynamite wrist shot (Bure??) at 18. The guy pretty much already has NHL attributes!

Same for some really good up and coming players in the WHL Bantam draft. Pretty much the entire top 50 of the draft has better attributes than many NHL players.

I am using the 2011 roster package, so I do wonder if perhaps this large influx is making up for a few years gone missing? Either way I am in the WHL (Oil Kings) and frothing at the mouth over the prospects available compared to the previous year!

IslesEnforcer · Post by **IslesEnforcer** » Sun Feb 13, 2011 10:17 pm

I just drafted a Swedish Defenseman named Oliver Venturi

He's from Stokholm, plays left defense, has a consistency of 18.

His green stats:

Acceleration:17
Balance:20
Speed:17
Stamina:17
Bravery:18
Teamwork:17
Workrate:18

At first i thought it may be Lidstrom but he retired in 09-10 season and I am in 10-11 season. Any idea who this may be? Or is this an actual player?

Richie Daggers Crime · Mon Feb 14, 2011 4:16 am

His height, weight, and handedness, plus flair would be helpful. If you read through the thread, you'd know that those attributes you gave us tell us virtually nothing since they're randomized.

Height: 6'3
Weight: 194
Flair: 12
Left handed

I do not have capabilities to provide a screenshot from the computer I'm playing with for that game or I would have done that initially.

Here's my goalie i picked in the 6th round in 2016. He was unranked then even though he went something like 35-0 in slovak junior league that year. Anyone have any ideas?

Post by **joehelmer** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 3:05 pm

Maybe Ján Lasák.

frisland · Post by **frisland** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 3:26 pm

that was my thought too, but he already seems better than Lasak ever was.

IslesEnforcer · Post by **IslesEnforcer** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 9:18 pm

Figured it out.
Any ideas who this might be, knowing that Lidstrom just retired last season.

Mattias Ohlund?

IslesEnforcer · Post by **IslesEnforcer** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 10:39 pm

Venturi 6'3 194
Ohlund 6'4 229

Close gut Ohlund is still an active player in my game. Or does this not matter?

Post by **philou21** » Fri Feb 18, 2011 10:58 pm

The player must be retired to have a regen, so no, it's not him.

Richie Daggers Crime · Sun Feb 20, 2011 7:09 am

It's early in the game. If you have a save from 2006-2007, go back and see who matches. There can't be that many that would.

If he were a righty... Frederick Olausson.
So...

Tommy Albelin, maybe? Other guys are a bit too heavy for this guy.

frisland · Post by **frisland** » Thu Mar 03, 2011 2:44 pm

Quick question:
I inherited a American/GRE defenseman when i took over the senators, I assume he's the Chelios regen?

He ranks among the top 10 dmen in the league but his 3 positioning is killing me.
