Another lazy update

Another lazy roster,no rating changes,no player likeness updates.I mean come on put a little effort into it.Leon Draisaitl 27 pts in 22 games rating is 72.I looked and could not find any real changes,this is 2 weeks work,one of our members could do that in an hour,man that is embarrassing.

Re: NHL 16 Roster Update Available (12-17)

Notable prospects back (or new to) in the game:

J. Nakladal (CGY)

S. Milano (CBJ), O. Bjorkstrand (CBJ; with Danish National Team in last update), D. Heatherington (CBJ), D. Kukan (CBJ), J. Korpisalo (in Columbus' roster)

M. Reilly (MIN)

V. Kamenev (NSH), K. Nakyva (NSH)

V. Dunn (OTT)

J. Schmaltz (STL)

C. Djoos (WSH), J. Vrana (WSH)

Goalie gear for NHL teams updated as well (whether they're spot-on accurate, I can't attest to. But they now match team colors). And yes, as the above post said, no ratings changes.

In the revamped rosters, I have Draisaitl as an 83. And that's the revamped ratings where it is harder to earn a higher rating.

Still so mad that there wasn't a way to get roster sharing in. You guys saved my NHL13 and 14 seasons...I remember playing with the Olympic Rosters and loving the game all over again.

Re: NHL 16 Roster Update Available (12-17)

I've typically come to expect a thread full of complaints on EA's roster updates, but NHL's roster updates typically are very deserving of the complaints. They move a few players around here and there, make some mistakes, some guys disappear for unexplained reasons, ratings never seem to change based on performance, they are few and far between with updates, it just doesn't really seem like a priority to them.


Given the fact there's no roster sharing available to allow the community to create their own rosters, they really should be stepping up and delivering quality roster updates, and that's just never happened over the years which is disappointing to say the least.


Something is better than nothing, I get that, but that something still leaves way too much to be desired.

Re: NHL 16 Roster Update Available (12-17)

I just have to say that I don't understand EA's thinking. I noticed that if a player has signed a PHPA and is moved to an ECHL team, they delete them. He is property of the NHL team. Why delete them?

It's weird because if a player has signed an AHL contract and moved to the ECHL, they leave them on the AHL team. Don't you think it should be the other way around?

As far as the update goes, they added 18 new AHL players.

Calgary:
Jakub Nakladal

Columbus:
Oliver Bjorkstrand, Dillon Heatherington, Joonas Korpisalo, Dean Kukan, Sonny Milano, Nick Moutrey, Peter Quenneville

Minnesota:
Zach Palmquist, Mike Reilly

Nashville:
Max Gortz, Vladislav Kamenev, Kristian Nakyva

Ottawa:
Vincent Dunn

St. Louis:
Jordan Schmaltz

Washington:
Christian Djoos, Vitek Vanecek, Jakub Vrana


2 players are on CHL teams:

Michael McNiven (MTL) - Owen Sound
Jaedon Descheneau (STL) - Kootenay
