Weird they released this when the trade deadline in Monday. Could have just held it until then.

That would have been the smart thing to do. And that's why they didn't. Haha. Watch, now we won't get the next roster until playoffs.

Makes you wonder how closely the developers actually follow the NHL. Did they know there is a trade deadline on Monday?

Seems like they could've saved themselves a lot of work if they just waited a few days: made one roster update instead on now having to make a second one.

Well, I for one think it's a pretty smart move. Their roster is now up-to-date and ready to be revised as per what happens at the deadline. This will give them more time to focus on trade deadline moves and get the next update out quicker.

Not sure why everyone is complaining about this? There's no way they don't come out with a deadline version.

I wonder if it's to give people the option to have the proper rosters before the deadline, so they can decide who they want to go where when it does conclude?
