Not sure if this might be programmed into the game already, BUT
when it comes to Swedish players that played many years in NHL often they return "home" for a couple of last years in the club that they considered their homeclub.
We have seen this over the years and every new season many teams gets "home-returners" which boost the teams in SHL.
We can also see that players who have a hard time to crack the NHL lineups and really think playing in AHL isn't the best. They too often returns home to get a boost themselves.

Now this might happen in this game now and then but it would be very IRL like if something was "fixed" to increase these cases.

A player that got a favo club in his bios could get a little better ideas to return to it. In older version of FHM it might happen but not that often. Older players more likely retire than take a paycut than play 1-2 extra years back home for less salary.

So it would be an improvement I think to increase this eager to come "home".
