Dave Ellett became Dave The Lion, Scott Shaunessy became Scott Edmonton Express, etc. Almost all of the European guys had mangled names, including all of the former USSR (now Russia) guys, if that helps at all.
I've manually gone in and fixed them, using Hockey Reference, going alphabetically, it doesn't take long, but hopefully something you guys can get fixed.
On an interesting note - noticed Mark Jooris is in the game as a 1964 b-day (1982 draft), despite never making it to the NHL. He played in Finland and AHL, as well as Canadian National Team, but never NHL.

In this same historical,, I'm in 1982-83 now. This is the season that the NHL went to 18 skaters/2 goalies. The league rules page shows 18 skaters, but on the roster selection, it has a 19 limit on dressed. If I get the AI to set up organization, they'll dress 20, and the game is fine. If I want to make changes to my lineup (not actual lines, but who's dressing) the limit is 19. After that, it says "19 players already dressed". My options are let the AI choose who dresses each game, or have one less skater. Hardly ideal.
