Seems to me I have some space in the lower left corner to make the players larger ...

So I think a player figure in 36x36 or even 60x60 will be impossible to display correctly.
What else could be tried?
Logos will also be too small i think...
Probaly some think like a skate?

Sadly, it seems to be doing the reverse - it is suggesting players for my team's perceived strength (G) at the moment. So all the players listed in the monthly report were all Gs under the "Players available according to our weakness at G".

This is an historical save that I started before the patch, if that makes a difference. Just wanted to bring it to you guys' attention.

Loving the changes to 2D !

Oops, yeah, looks like it may be doing that backwards, we'll get that fixed.

My fault. Three-year contracts for new players in historical mode was in the notes for build 111, and I didn't notice it because I went from build 106 to 113.

I created a 60x60 transparenmt PNG and placed a 35x35 icon picturen in the middle and saved the files as PNG with transparency. World without a problem. What was did you do it?

I was really hoping to see some improvement to the scouting in Canadian Junior with the specific notes in the changelist.

My large staff still only scouted about 45-50 players eligible for the draft and I think that most, if not all, were players who I manually added to the watch list. In June, when my Head Scout provided his top 20 for the upcoming draft, more than half were players with an E scouting level.

The other problem is there continues to be only a handful of players with good potential and about 20 players in the class who have the potential to develop into useful roster players.

There seems to be no improvement at all on this system since I raised these issues January and was told adjustments were being made to fix it. I will continue to say it until it isn’t true; these leagues continue to be unplayable due to a broken scouting system and lack of decent player generation.

I am not sure what is the point of noting changes in the changelist when it’s clear no testing is being done to verify they are leading to improved results.

I´m just curious, is Seattle expansion draft automatic? Or we need to do it manually.

It is now automatic.

Still looks like you have to protect players with under two years of NHL experience though.

Since the draft, in the game, is the 21/22 season, the option to not protect them would have to be set to 3 seasons.
