Now, now, before we jump on mgsports, he is correct that Winnipeg belongs in Canada. It sounded a bit off to me at first, but I was able to confirm it on Wikipedia.

And.....we are off! Major Tom is calling ground control for clearance to return to his home planet. :-D

Does Quebec City belong in Canada? And dang it ...it is not the KC Coyotes...it is the KC Sunshineband.

Randomize Draft Order because OTTP has it and then my team can get the first pick even it wins Stanley Cup?

What OOTP has makes no difference to what EHM has
And EHM is meant to be a realistic simulation, and NOT a fake fantasy sandlot game, so I can't see "randomized draft order" ever being part of the game (for the fake fantasy sandlot game, you're really better to stick with FHM/OOTP)

Yes if I'm Blackhawks and win Stanley Cup and want first pick every year have to Randomize the order.
World Templates so can add like Historical !eagues or Leagues we create to this year's so like All-Time Rangers Trade Mark Messier to the tLighting for like Bishop,Ryan Callahan and so on meaning Trades with other Leagues needs to be added.

No you don't.

If you want to be un-realistic with your game to achieve something like that you can just Add GM of the team's pick you want, and make them trade it to you and then accept it. There is really no need to add in an extra feature for this.

Hello MgSports. Long time no see. Why on earth would you be the Blackhawks? Did you move the team to St Louis? and how come they are not called the Blues?

Missed you around here bud.

I would take the 2 Stanley Cup Blackhawks Teams 3 if they make it this year with what if they kept Players from first and Second Team that don't play for them this year to make them better and have more Trade Bait.
I would still use Blues for All-Time Team. I would use Tampa Bay,Florida or KC or Orlando Would play game if Edit League Strcture was allowed. I perfer my Assistant do the Trading,signing people for me and I just do Draft and have first pick and never get fired.

Atta boy mg. I knew there was something not right with the Hawks thing. For your wishlist would you include being able to make all the teams St Louis Blues or would some be named differently?

I would Randomize Cities to Florida,MO or KS cities. Edit Standings would be good but not a must. Historical Players in Drafts 2015 and Beyond to.

Women only if somebody creates them.
I do like Rumor Mill in Game and that their was a Pre-Game Editor but editing in Game is okay. Top Prospects or Players Team would be good but having them Unsigned if was doing an Expansion Team.

How many of you as goalies mg? One for every team? Two?

With the new player roles as was mentioned to me by a source who will be credited but remain unnamed for fear of embarassment:

I love that there are 47 player roles in the game since I Have 47 different personalities. I can create all of me!!


So I think mg that 47 different roles would allow 47 different you's in the game. You do not have to just be goalies. Whaddya think good idea?


And are they the KC BLues and Florida Blues?
