I am going to have to disagree on this one.

The player rating system in EHM was a huge set back IMO. It destroyed the simulation aspect/attributes of the players, and turned it into a rating farm. No longer did people pay attention to the attributes/stats of the players, but the ratings they received in their respective league.

I know this because I played EHM since it's conception. Coaches and GM's do NOT have a "rating system" to go off of in real life. If someone says they do, they are liars.

If you wan't an enforcer, find a guy with a generous hit count. If you wan't a goal scorer, find a guy who...scores goals. It's actually really that simple. As for the concern of player "luck", there is an easy way to determine this. Give the player a 10-15 game tryout on your roster. 1 or 2 games is two small of a sample size to determine if the player is at his proper form.

Read stats and attributes, don't be lazy. It is a simulator after all.
