Are all ratings in Spreadsheet ready? Can i use them in my Franchise Mode? Thank U for your big work! And what i need to do with AHL players or for example players like Eeli Tolvanen?

1. Edit slider + 2 team (NJD and NYR). It was really cool game, thank u for your work again.

2. But what about franchise mode contracts? It looks like players underrated now and for example Marcus Johansson (NJD) want 2 way contract - 3 years and 0.825 $. What can we do about this?

2. Not a lot. I've noticed decent results though.

Here is what you can expect players to ask for with their current OVRs:

Ivan Provorov (89 OVR)
Current salary: 0.925M (entry level deal)
Asking for: 6.6M/year

Wayne Simmonds (82 OVR)
Current salary: 3.975M
Asking for: 4.025M/year

Erik Karlsson (91 OVR)
Current salary: 6.5M
Asking for: 7.75M

Joe Pavelski (89 OVR)
Current salary: 6M
Asking for: 6.875M


The issue is with players under around 79 OVR, like Johanson. The only solution would be to inflate players under that OVR, which would hurt other areas of the game.

So what solutions can be made? I really like your project and want to play Franchise Mode with more interest, not like now.

The only solution would be increasing the OVRs for players under 80, so that 80 OVR is closer to the minimum for an NHL player

80 OVR is around EA's minimum

The downside being this decreases player seperation
