A) Speed up the first search, I just typed in TBL and they all came up instead of typing in 55 names and adding them to a shortlist.(Yes I do have them all on a shortlist)

B) When I take over a team as manager I want to know which players are part of the competition. If I have Johan Anderrson(for example) on my team I might just think he's a random swede, as it's a pretty common name. If I have Johan TBL-Anderrsen I don't have this problem. Also if any TBL players score against me I know who they are as well!
Makes sense.

I think Denny Pick & Brendan McAuley are going to be good players, their stats are looking pretty good at the beginning.

6 games and only one fight for my guy?? I'm ashamed of him!

And what's he doing getting assists when he should just be beating people up? ;)

Aslong as I win the PIM league at the end of the season i'm happy! lol

Thanks Calv!

Just a correction: spelled McCauley. No biggy though. It happens all the time.

Thanks for your hard work!

So just curious is anyone surprised by the stats so far. If anything I expected my player to have more goals than assists, ah well almost a ppg isn't bad though. Odds are he'll probably develop into a 3rd or 4th liner.

I had a look in the saved game editor for the distribution of everyone's potential ability.
I used -15 potential on everybody which gives a random value between 110 & 190.

The distribution is as follows:
180-190: 5
170-179: 7
160-169: 6
150-159: 5
140-149: 8
130-139: 11
120-129: 6
110-119: 7

1 thing I noticed was that the stats lie! some of the top PA players aren't performing as well as some of the lower PA players, will be interesting to see how they all turn out.
