Version 3.9 (2018/19) (29 October 2018)

General Updates:
- ** Increased NHL club contract limit to 60, this is due to the game lacking the ability to NOT count players signed to ELCs but assigned to juniors from counting against the 50 contract limit (some teams have close to 10 players assigned to junior teams at the start of the 2018-19 season). Increasing this so human/AI GMs don't have to waive/cut players immediately. If I find a way to implement this will revert back to 50.

- Increased roster size limit to 30 from 23 for WHL, QMJHL and OHL clubs

- Added transfer rules for Greater Metro Hockey League (GMHL), copied OHL, league can now use player rights
- Added transfer rules for Central Canada Hockey League (CCHL), copied OHL, league can now use player rights
-- I understand that adding player rights to these leagues doesn't do anything special without an attached draft (which I cannot add), but at least it will mean players will have accurate rights and it may lead to some more player movement in the first few years of the sim.
