@@tomkmb4120 I would say there are two different things that make this hard. 1) out of your 20 player roster, you have or have 14 players under the age of 26 which leaves you 6 players of 26 or older. 2) if you find a really good prospect any one team can poach them at any given time. Wait until later on in the series I had 1 month where 4 of my players got signed by AHL or NHL teams. The even more interesting thing is that with 38 NHL and 38 AHL I made 38 ECHL teams in season 2 which I started to record last night. It makes it that much harder because there’s only what 28 teams in the league in real life and I had to make like what 7 ECHL teams minus the 2 expansion team echl that I already had so it gives the series a little bit more.. I’m just waiting for a big bug in the game to be fixed because there’s a league that I want to do but it’s not working properly right now so just waiting for an update for it first
@@fmfan_YTI quite like that roster rule about the under 26 that does make it more interesting seeing if the young guys can get it done. I think a lot of people stay away from the AHL and ECHL for the reason you’ve said about getting players poached and stuff but it kind of feels like the ultimate challenge cos you always have to adapt I guess. There are achievements for winning these two leagues in the game and I really wanna get them cos I think they must be super hard to get because of all the different challenges. That expansion sounds cool, very hectic with that many teams and transactions though I’m sure lol. What is the league you are hoping to do once they drop a patch?
@@tomkmb4120 well i was thinking going CHL however the CHL iMport draft is bugged right now so after 2025 there is no chl import draft so i gotta wait until they patch it and then see how this season goes first.
@@fmfan_YT Yep there is a fix coming for that today hopefully! I just won the WHL in a test save with Medicine hat, I like the CHL leagues, they're usually fun - which one will you be choosing or will you try out all 3?
@@tomkmb4120 so here’s my thoughts is each league has its benefits… I like WHL because u draft at 14 which gives them the extra year to develop before they can play in the WHL, OHL is local and I’ve been to every OHL arena except for sudbury and SSM.. qmjhl I was never a fan of.. so if I’m going to do a CHL it will be WHL or OHL as a expansion and I won’t have a expansion draft I will make my team up on free agents and build it from that and drafts the first year
This is cool man, don’t see many of these types of saves on YT. Look forward to more!
