EHM The Blue Line

Please use this thread to post any mistakes, omissions, tweaks, etc in respect of the ECHL in the TBL Rosters. Any general feedback on the data for this league can also be posted here.

Note that any feedback on player career history, team history or competition history should instead be posted here: http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi ... .php?f=142

Not quite sure this is the right place to post or not, but Kyle Rogers retired after last season. He's listed as a free agent, but he's done with hockey entirely and currently a commentator for the Walleye's broadcast team. I would suggest he potentially be listed as a free agent coach with decent stats in coaching forwards and motivation with the Toledo Walleye listed as a favorite team, since he has ambitions to coach some day.

On the Toledo Walleye aspect as well, Jared Nightingale's 'leadership' score is a C, but he's currently Captain of the Toledo Walleye and has been for the past two seasons. I'd adjust to rate that higher than the C it currently is.

Kyle Bonis could use a status update as he holds/held scoring records for the Walleye. His location on the depth chart was among the bottom players, when he's been an AHL call-up this season and notched 59 points last year. He's currently rated 2 stars and 4th line potential.

Again, not quite sure this is the right place to post this info either, but Alden Hirschfeld is listed as a free agent. He's contracted to the Grand Rapids Griffins this season (so this probably would belong in the AHL thread I guess technically?) but was not assigned to any team in the latest rosters update. However, his status might change as he had a medical emergency tonight on the bench--not sure what may come of it just yet. He is another star player for the Walleye/Griffins, and has been bouncing back and forth between the Griffins/Walleye rosters this season.

Did want to compliment the boost to Jeff Lerg, however--it's quite accurate considering his latest play! Older rosters had him under-powered, in my opinion.

Jake Paterson (G) also started the season with the Toledo Walleye and not the Grand Rapids Griffins. I'm not sure but I think? the rosters randomly generate a back-up goalie for Jeff Lerg. That back-up should be Paterson.

Can't figure out how to edit my post, but to be more accurate, too, our rivals are the Komets and the Kalamazoo K-Wings, not the Cyclones. Another minor detail--don't even know if that has any effect!

Thanks for the info. Changes have been made

Rapid City: Joe Ferras is now GM only; Mark DeSantis is now Head Coach

This doesn't necessarily fit ECHL alone. But it's one of the mostly likely league to try and get the player in quiestion to, so close enough! Greg_Moore_26_3_1984 is a player/coach with very nice attributes, he however cannot be signed. You will get the newsitem that you signed him. But he won't show up on your roster and will still show as a Free Agent. You cannot find him when using the quick search bar. Only when using Scouting->Player Search. Not entirely sure why, he also has no history at all which fits with being a coach only (among other things, but player with attributes like his normally have a player history). I haven't tested if you lose the money should you try and sign him with a signing bonus, that'd be pretty pants if it did though.

Moore is a coach only in the db but he has some player attributes still with him from his playing career. That is probably the thing that is causing your issue and should be sorted for next season's release

The league was realigned this year from 6 to 4 divisions but the old alignment still remains. Also, the Evansville franchise that was added should have been added to the SPHL, they don't belong in the ECHL.

Thanks!

When EHM 1.3 (the current version) was released it allowed a 2016 start date, but did not have the 2016-17 League setups; the upcoming EHM update (1.4) will have the 2016-17 League setups

Yes, the game wants the ECHL to have a certain amount of teams and right now that is one more than IRL. To fill the spot, we used Evansville from the SPHL as that league had one too many teams than the game asks for.
Like Nino said, SI will soon release an update that fixes this and we will release an updated version of the roster database afterwards

Sounds good, thank you both!

Just noticed, while working on my Three Brothers blog, that the ECHL team Toledo Walleye has their home arena set as 10 300 seated Fifth Third Field, which is actually a baseball field. Walleye's real arena is Huntington Center, which seats 8000 spectators (or at least that's what it says on a Google map
