Agreed. In a fairly resent article, NHL was said to be the worst offender of inflated ratings, of the major sports games. And with that...too mashed together.

[Simple Mathematics]

The Revamped Rosters generally went on this scale:

Superstars - 88+
1st liners - 82-87
2nd liners - 75-81
3rd liners - 69-74
4th liners - 63-68
NHL/AHL fringe - 58-62

And of course, players are rated based on what they would be on an average team. Like although Malkin plays on the second line for Pittsburgh a lot, obviously he is rated much much higher than a second liner.

Anyone know if there will be any sort of roster share feature in 16? I know you couldn't in 15 but I wanna say you could in 14...

It's very doubtful that '16 has a roster share feature; it would have been touted as a major addition.

In 14 you could share rosters by exporting them rosters online, then people could re-import onto their game. NHL 14 itself did not provide any option to share rosters directly, like NBA 2k and MLB the Show does.

Totally agree, though I have never felt enough difference in how the players play on the ice, relative to the ratings, anyway. I suppose there would be little point in spreading out the ratings if the ratings don't reflect how the player plays.
