1909 roster

ffp7175 · 11-24-2023, 11:58 PM

I noticed some teams in the 1909 season only have 11 or 12 players
On their current rosters

Can you play with those listed rosters or must you fill
Out the roster to 17 by signing some free agents or
Only get to the 14 roster limit

Can you only play with 2 lines
And 2 sets of defensmen

You'll need to sign players, you need 14 to play a game. The rosters are accurate historically, but the game needs a larger number of players to work properly than the (very small) number of players that teams carried at the time. There are more than enough free agents to fill the rosters out, though, I added a lot of guys who were playing in non-NHA leagues at the time.
