  1. I don't understand what the manager in question being an admin has anything to do with you regretting a trade you made. Admins have 0 advantages over the rest of us. They're just a team of managers - 2 in each world - that make sure nothing sus happens
  2. 36 seasons isn't a "new player" it doesn't matter how long you've been away from the game. 36 is A LOT. Gary Bettman is irrelevent and an idiot. Also the other manager DID know what he was doing. He was taking a risk - hoping you would promote and turn the pick into a top 4. He made this trade worth it to you by giving you an 87ovr 18yr old center. If you happened to not promote, he would have lost a very good player for nothing. And the player you got, helped you promote and is also still a very good player in the GHL. This is not predatory, this is not unfair. This is a trade that served both parties. If you've seen what *actual* abusive trades are the GHL, you'd see that this is nothing of the sort.
  3. Eric, you have 36 seasons under your manager profile. Even if you were a new manager it wouldn't change things because this trade wasn't a predatory move. You got a player who by the time he's 20 will be 90 overall, and will likely come to be 92-93. The trade isn't bad and just because the top 4 in this draft turns out to be players slightly better than the one you got, sounds like you need to learn how to look at the draft before accepting such offers.
  4. I've thought this for a while now. It's a good idea
  5. How do you compare my team with the others I listed. Yes I have a decent amount of players in the minors but they're also BHL level players I just signed recently so my prospects would stop getting tired so quickly down there. I have 1 player that's 80 overall and the rest are just fodder that the FA is still full of.
  6. Promoting to the GHL is a difficult thing to do. Promoting and surviving your first season at this point is extremely difficult because the free agency is garbage. It's been garbage for many seasons now. Why is the FA trash? Because managers have entire team's worth of players just rotting away in the minors with no intention of bringing them up, or trading them. So then the very very few players available in the FA are bid on wildly getting double the salary that they ask for because the demand is so high. Whether the fix is creating an engine to make players refuse to sign with a manager known for player hoarding, or just putting a 6-8 player cap on the minors... Something needs done because this is embarrassing. Here's the proof. Harrow, Batchawana, Oshawa, and to a lesser extent - North Shore since most of those players are from his SHL club and just recently promoted - are prime examples. Think of the value these players could add to promoting teams. It's a s*** way to manage a team and screw over other managers.

  8. About 80% of the offers I get to play a friendly match end up in a glitch and I can never accept the offer. I've talked to a few other managers and they deal with this too. When I try to accept, this is what I see
  9. Player requested roles are completely broken when promoting. I'm losing most of my team since they will not be able to perform at the GHL level, but I'm losing even more because the players that I do want to keep are demanding star player when they are 4th liners at best. Examples: Sechapio is an 80 overall player, but demands 1st line in the GHL? https://gameplanhockey.com/player?gpid=21704-A Gent played 55 games and was on the 4th line, but demands star player for GHL? https://gameplanhockey.com/player?gpid=17905-A Ming is currently on a 3rd-4th GHL contract who has just been traded to me. His contract is immediately expiring, yet he demands star player https://gameplanhockey.com/player?gpid=14201-A Here are pictures of the contract demands. I think the role feature needs looking at and tweaked.
  10. I must have missed this being discussed, but this would be amazing if we had this. This is a problem that affects all of us
  11. So regardless of if I win the upcoming relegation playoffs, I'm wiping the team. Everyone is up for grabs except Kosir, Kaila, Vaslik, and Willman. Looking for good prospects and draft picks
  12. There's plenty of managers here who totally need to join the discord server. Having that community of managers adds so much to the game so come over and join the fun. Discuss your team, other teams and anything else.
  13. This is really cool! You should keep doing it, I know it's time consuming
  14. Is there any update on what's up with Buzzer? Been frozen for 2 days or so now and it appears the games on day 79 has been skipped.
  15. I'm hoping to build off the success I found in the 2nd half of the previous season. I was swept in the first round, due to my leading scorer who lead the GHL in points being injured. I improved my goalie situation, and found a stable 3rd D pair. But this game can be weird, good players don't = good results.
  16. Anyone else having this issue? For the last week or 2, messages, and all pages have to be hit multiple times and then load very slowly. Currently, I can't get the transfer page to load at all.

    How in the world did you get that many highly skilled young players without being in the GHL. SHL drafts haven't gotten me much, and even my 2nd round GHL picks aren't over low 80s.
  18. Really happy with my season. About 20-30 games in, I thought I would be fighting at the top all season, but I came crashing down. I still finished strong after a bad mid season, and made my first playoffs in the GHL. Was up 2-0 in the second round before losing 3 in a row. Overall very happy with my season and hope I'm in the GHL for good now

    Not sure what to call this thread but what's going on with your team right now? I spent 2 seasons ago in the GHL for the first time and had 4 wins. I'm back now after an SHL promotion and I already have 2 wins so hooray for improving lol
  21. I need a good center 85+ overall, bellemore golden flyers, open to offers
  22. It's a small issue, but I have a message from season 1 that can't be deleted. Bellemore golden flyers SHL Buzzer. Thanks
  23. This isn't true at all. When you get demoted, you lose all players on a one way contract, which is many. I just got demoted from GHL and my team is pretty much at standard if not a little above standard SHL level.
  24. Looking to have a good season in the SHL since my single season in the GHL had 4 wins all season... Need to have some good times again
  25. So I drafted a player - Eric Sheffield and it says he's unavailable, and I have no option to offer him a contract. Why is this? Bellemore Golden Flyers GHL buzzer
