How to call up players from my feeder team

Hermbot · 10-17-2017, 09:37 PM

Hopefully I'm just overlooking something simple - I am playing as an AHL team and my NHL overlords keep calling up people left and right, dumping people on me, etc.

Now I'm shorthanded due to injuries, and I'd like to call up a player from MY farm team in the ECHL. When I right click on a player I see all sorts of options, but none of them send them up to my roster. Is that possible?

Havent tried it but I dont think that it is possible. Only the NHL GM can move players around. Not really sure what you can do about being short but you can sign players on your own in the AHL I believe

They're only considered part of your "farm team" if they're under AHL contract. If you have them signed to an AHL deal, you can loan them to ECHL or call them up. If they're under NHL deal, they decide where they play.

Yeah, you can't call up the players contracted to the ECHL team (you can, however, sign them right off their roster.)
