31 Years old, 86 pounds player on the trading block in juniors?!?!?!

[MXD]

A guy named Michael Zipp, wearing #0, was put on the trading block by the Everett Silvertips.

Well, if it was only a matter of data, I wouldn't have posted it here. But 31 years old players shouldn't be eligible to play in juniors. Is contract is set to expire in 9 years, which makes it funny as well.

The W also has a 6'2, 292 pounds player up for grabs (name Steve Johnson), and another who's 6'2, 288 pounds. This might more be a DB error though! .... But both are 21 (and 1991 born) -- shouldn't be eligible, no?

Looks like Zipp is a database typo, he's supposed to be 1996-born and 190 pounds. The contract is strange, I'll have to ask Sebastian what's going on there. The other two seem to be guys the game has generated randomly (the height-weight model apparently needs to be looked at), and the WHL free agent list isn't filtering to the correct ages.

That explains. Zipp didn't play any games, but his attributes were not good enough to give him a spot anyways, so i don't whether he could have played or not.

Unless another user wants to "add" to this problem, you can probably delete the thread.

Appropriately enough, Mr. Zipp is 0-0-0 in 31 real-life WHL games this year.
