I've worked on a few seasons and databases myself for other sports games. I know first hand it's not easy, and takes time.

I do not think you touched a nerve with Sebastien. I think he has answered these questions by saying they are focusing for the time being on getting the things in the game that make it a hockey game working well, and properly. That means things like Jeff researching historical rosters, and doing data entry for minor league historical rosters are not a top priority at this point.
I think he is saying for the one millionth time in the last few weeks...that they know where the focus needs to be. Making this a GOOD HOCKEY SIM, and worrying about the finer details of AHL history, ECHL history, Central league history and fantasy play a whole lot later than right now.
It is not a negative comment, it is a comment that says....we are going to get this to be a hockey game, not a random number generator.
Sure...in OOTP historical play is huge, and it came as time went on in development of the game. Not at the beginning for all teams in the history of baseball. The same will eventually occur with FHM....just not yet.
Thank you development team for realizing that the game needs to have a hockey feel to it, and not worrying so much about the history and fantasy players at this point.
