Corsi and PDO are great to determine if player(s) are performing badly over an extended period of time, but at the same time it can be deceptive. They're not something I'm looking first to see when something is wrong. Other indicators will tell me that beforehand.

This is something I've been waiting a long time. A true eye opener for me. There was a lot of things here that I could not have figured out on my own. Like Paul said, this certainly changes how I look at players. I'm so glad each skill is not a guess game anymore.

Okay I think I wasn't clear enough. I've had a long day, so bear with me. I'm familiar with what you're saying, Paul, but still the main identity of a team comes from the main idea of how they (coaching) want to play the game. This is why I wouldn't mess with the tactics as much as with the line focuses. By having more options in the line focus menu, you could make some lines lean toward a different kind of gameplay (tactic) without completely changing it to something different. Dump & chases happen in every game, crash the nets happen in every game if an opportunity presents itself, puck possession is an important aspect of hockey and rushes happen in every game as well. I guess I just think of the tactics as setting the major backbone of how you want your team to play, but within that tactic, I'd like to see a lot more variation in the form of line focus options. I do like the suggestion in itself, I just think we're having a different approach to it.

I like all the suggestions here except the 3rd one (tactics by line). Usually a real team has a certain way to play hockey, and usually it's some version of the existing archetypes. Perhaps more variation for the line focuses. Perhaps an option to make one line, for example, play two-way while your team tactic is puck possession, but make it a two-way with more direct play that would benefit more physical players. I don't know if I'm being clear enough on this, but it's just two cents out of my murky brain.

I have 14 claims on my goalie now. He was supposed to go out on day 3. It's now day 6. Please, GPHM staff, do something.

LOL same here. I cannot describe the level of disappointment. I was sitting in front of the screen precisely at 7:50pm just to realize it's going to be day 108, not 1.

I like the look of the jersey. Nicely unique color theme. There's quite a few cat related team names in the game in general, not just GHL, so... Thumbs up!

It's not the quality but quantity!

Grinders and two-way players work good for traditional 3rd and 4th lines. I have a habit of trying to add one great two-way forward on scoring line(s) as well because I tend to think of the game through defense. Other combinations have been successful too. This season I'm running a little different setup. So far it has not yielded desirable results against the top teams, but I blame that on GHL dropouts. Can't get wins against those unless stars truly align. OA 89's do not belong to SHL.

I've read that conversation 3 times now and I end up laughing out loud every time. Just priceless. Really shows how well the assistant is up for his job.

This would be small, but great change. A little heads up before it's going to run.

Yeah.. I mean players just don't retire at 23 no matter what. Lazy attribute might come into play around 30 when they go "okay, I can't do this crap anymore". I think there's some tuning to be done here.

Uhh.. 23 years old and retiring sounds a little weird. No hockey player would retire at the age of 23 unless being injured multiple times over and over. Maybe have more factors into the retiring decision? I was pretty displeased by the fact that development pretty much ends around 24 years, which is not often the case in real life.

I believe it has been verified that this feature is in the plans already, albeit not awfully high right now.

It does work now. Thank you sooooo much! For the next playoffs, if I make it, I'll introduce the 3rd special jersey since last season I did it with away jersey.

Okay, I tried it and it's still not working. Gives the exact same error. I cleared my cache and tried again, but it still doesn't work. I'd love to hear if this works now for other people.

I'm still getting the same error message on Firefox, but I'm at work right now. I will try again at home with Chrome.

I came to see what was the solution, but there isn't any. The tag should be [WIP].

Both Arcticwolves and Blag Flag jerseys look nice. Pretty unique color combos. It's always been a bit of a problem to not have enough mascots matching team names.

Thank you for addressing the issue. With this information I'm good and calm.

You can't— at least not yet. Sometimes I want to celebrate special occasions (playoffs/friendly games/whatever comes to mind) by using an away or 3rd jersey design. I go in and just switch the colors up, save and I'm good to go. There's no place to store an existing design and just tag which one you want to use.

It's a bug reporting forum, isn't it? It doesn't really matter to me how much money I'm charged for my manager fix. If it helps to offer better service, then by all means, crank it up. I was initially willing to toss out a lot more money per month than what we're doing right now. The principle of turning a hobby into business means a whole new level of dedication to it, or that's how I've perceived the real world works. In any case, it's a business now, so those "own lives" get really no sympathy from me anymore.

Can you address this issue? It's still broken. I'm getting tired of this crap. When money gets involved the game becomes a business, and with business comes responsibility for paying customers. The jersey editor is still broken and now we're starting to have issues with simulations. Season 1 went incredibly well on Cage.. what happened during the switch?

I tried that and no, it doesn't save any changes.

I went to edit the team jersey to use my 3rd special jersey design for friendly preseason games, but when I attempt to save the finished shirt I get this message (tried 3-4 times with the same result): This can't be good The site is obviously not behaving properly. It might work if you try again but if it doesn't please create a post at the bug reports section of the forum
