Re: the goalies, there'll be plenty. Players are assigned to the team they were owned by in a given season, even if they didn't play, so during the Hall years in Chicago the guys who were #2 and lower on their depth chart (mostly DeJordy and Roy Edwards, but a few other future/former NHLers were in there, too) will be on the Hawk roster.
That would be awesome Jeff. Guys who never played in the NHL as 1st rounders, like Kevin Cheveldayoff, Brent Bilodeau, Ryan Sittler etc..that would be pretty cool.

And as for players playing in 1 career NHL game, let's use Jason Herter as an example. He was drafted 8th overall by Vancouver in 1989, but his only career game was with the New York Islanders in 1995-1996. If I understand this correctly, he will be listed in the database, but won't show up in the game until that specific season he played the 1 game for the Islanders?

Thanks again for taking the time to answer our questions.
