What league are you in? What time of year is it? You should always be able to instantly sign a goalie, unless you've got a salary cap issue, which then you just need to place a goalie on IR to create the room to sign someone.

He will be bad, but still have one on the bench as backup :P

As Schifty says, but you should still be able to. We may need to see the save. And you should always have at least 4 goalies under contract for this exact situation. Or maybe...one losing a passport...

I'm proud to be the GM/HC of the 9th times Stanley cup winner Edmonton Oilers, season 2033. And in my opinion I have no financial problems.

How do you set lineups for a PP scenario? The way the lines are set is a traditional LW/C/RW/LD/RD set up, but if I'm employing, say, a 1-3-1, how do I know who is in what position? Is the game engine not sophisticated enough to really matter, or should I be placing players in specific spots? Is there at least a way of assigning one player to play the point, and four guys to be 'forwards' in general?

I believe RD is your point man, RW is your down low.

I have a simple question, Do we have a way to use any retired player during our game to be a part of our team as a coach.. scout ... etc ?

Only if they show up in the list of Staff Free Agents.

You can't, you can only retire them.

I used to click the link in the Manager task list but can't find it anymore.
I'm in season 2027-28

TGH-Adfabre · 01-15-2020, 08:48 PM

How do I move players from one line to another. In FHM5 I would just drag and drop. I can no longer drag and drop. Is there a trick?

You need to look at Prospects. Or check your Scouting Reports right now.

There is a known issue with the Fastspring version - right now you need to click the check mark box by the name, then click the one by the spot you want.

sajm0n · 01-16-2020, 01:21 PM

Why is it that my 1st PP line gets a lot more ice time than 2nd line (data from last game, but it happens very often):
- 1st line 7:22 ,
- 2nd line 0:54,
- all pp lines icetime is set to 50/50 (i tried 49/51 for one game, but i didnt notice any change)

Its annoying, because my best guys get tired a lot faster because of that...
(i dont watch games, i click sim game)

There is a lot of extenuating circumstances that can dictate how much 2nd PowerPlay plays. That's probably a little odd, keep watching some though. Zone starts/entries and stops and starts can make it difficult to switch.

Last few games this season.

5:19 vs 0:48
4:58 vs 1:06
5:30 vs 1:10
4:53 vs ~0:45
5:57 vs 0:03 !!
7:35 vs 1:14
4:33 vs 0:40
2:02 vs 0:00

I understand there can be powerplay goal so a shift ends and 2nd line doesnt have a chance to play and all kinds of different situations, but this looks a bit too much...

sajm0n · 01-16-2020, 02:44 PM

On 40/60 icetime: 3:15 vs 0:13, 0:29 and 0:42 (2nd line got random times, but all much less than 1st line)
Changed to 10/90 icetime: ~6:00 vs ~1:00
Changed to 0/100 and game crashes on me when i hit 'sim game' button...

Looks like it doesnt work as intended, at least for me...

I'll have a look and try to see why the first line is getting imbalanced amounts of icetime, but the 0/100 setting isn't causing a crash for me. You've got that on the 5-on-4 unit? Forwards only, or D as well?

0/100, 10/90, 40/60 etc - always changed everyone to the same setting like below.

What is the possibility that we could have some additional playoff rule options added? Right now there aren't many options between 8 team playoffs and 16 team playoffs, the only one I've seen is 12 team, 3 per div. I'd love to see the addition of a 10 team playoffs (bottom 2 teams of each conference play a series to get in), the CCHL (Central Canadian Hockey League) used a 10 team format for their playoffs in 2014/2015.

if you're playing as gm+coach do the tactics/ingame tactics attributes do anything if you upgrade them?
