1991 Dispersal Draft Problem ...

JT_Dutch · 11-21-2018, 11:19 PM

... Took over the original San Jose Sharks in Historical Mode after simming the 1990-91 season, went to the Dispersal Draft, and I'm locked into taking goalie after goalie. Not allowed to draft any skaters.

I looked everywhere I could to see if this had been posted before; my apologies in advance if I missed it somewhere.

It'll let you take skaters after the 5th goalie, but it looks like what's happening is it's using the limits for the dispersal draft (which, in real life, was limited to San Jose taking half of Minnesota's players) and applying them to the expansion draft (where Minnesota and San Jose each took 10 players from the other teams.) Getting it to do both of those drafts may be difficult, so we may have to compromise and switch that to something a 20-25-round expansion draft for just the Sharks from the rest of the league.
