Stupid question wrt historical games

Is there no way to get real personnel in historical mode?

Trying to play as the 15-16 Oilers but the random no-name coaches and owners is immersion killing IMO.

No, there aren't any historical staff in the database yet. One of the things I'm planning on doing early in the FHM5 development is figuring out how to implement that. There were some issues about getting reasonably complete staff data, but I think I might have figured out how to handle that (although there are still going to be issues finding scouts and assistants for the early years.)
