Historical Expansion Draft issue
So I sim'd the 1990 season and took over the San Jose Sharks in the summer of 1991 and cracked my knuckles and engaged the 'expansion draft' to get my roster in place. I had a whopping 10 picks to build my team. 10. 1 goalie and 9 skaters. Is this right?

Go read Minnesota North Stars(Wikipedia) and that will explain why the Sharks only got 10 players in your draft.
It's hard to explain but I think the North Stars owners were awarded an expansion team in San Jose and part of the agreement was a dispersal draft along with a expansion draft, |

Yeah, we'd like to add the Sharks-Stars roster split at some point, but it'll be a little more complicated to do than a regular expansion draft.

No, I'm aware of the totally bizarre North Stars/Sharks thang. But the last version of the game was just a straight expansion draft because reality would be really hard to replicate. Okay, I'll not bother with a Sharks expansion then.
