We chose to release this update after the start of the NHL season, so that NHL teams would have their rosters locked (mostly) and we’d be able to incorporate accurate line combinations into the update. The roster update also includes additional transactions for the AHL and DEL.
This update features the much-requested return of Edmonton's Nail Yakupov and the addition of St. Louis' Vladimir Tarasenko, among many others.
i really dont understand why this is so hard for EA. Ultimate and Revamped do the same work and they arent even employed by EA, and they do it 20times better. I did the WJC roster and had to create many players and it is not as hard as it may seem and the effort EA puts into these is just embarressing
Is anyone else getting duplicates of players in free agents? So far I have found Tarasenko, Forsberg, Seth Jones, Justin Schultz and Komarov. I am sure there are many more that are also free agents. It is getting frustrating, I want to start a GM mode, and can't with duplicate players available on the market.

Did you create those players previously? If so you need to completely remove ALL roster data (including in the cache) and then download/save EA' s. If you just overwrite it, it kicks all created players into FA.
They still have goalie Peter Mannino as duplicates in Manchester and Portland. He is currently playing with the Manchester Monarchs so they need to remove him from the Portland Pirates roster.
Tarasenko is not black! But the other two are...
i guess the guys at ea thought they are from fiji and not from finland.
Do they pictures of them in the game? I know on some of the user edited rosters there are no pictures so I didn't know if EA adds those when they do the updates?
2nd question.. does it say his name in the game when he scores?

Tarasenko doesn't have a picture in the game but it does have his play-by-play name listed but I have used the Blues a few times and not heard it once....even when I scored with him.
What a mess this update is really. Pretty sad. AHL is messed up... Mrazek is missing from Grand Rapids... he's the starting goalie for crying out loud... He's not even in the game anymore...
Im going to have to figure out how to download some of these rosters floating around the forums and hope theyre up to date, because this update just isnt cutting it for me.

Thanks you guys.. in that case I think I'll just stick with Porky's updated rosters that have him at 79 OVR, at least he looks close in his cyber CAP.

Remember if he goes to a different league for any reason, then they have to redo his waiver to be put in the game, even if he was previously in. There could always be other reasons he was removed, but it's likely a legal matter and not EA just removing him.
Yeah, I wish they would just keep the players in the game instead of hidden. Default roster is missing Steve Begin and Jonas Brodin out of the top of my head, but in the new roster, they are in as well as Baertsch with the new correct spelling, but no knuble, no mzarek according to a poster. So gotta figure out which roster.... lol
