If you opted in the Beta, it should already be downloaded.
I can't figure out if I have it, it's also not downloading ECK's rosters even though I'm subscribed

Yeah, I'm in the right one, even tried unsubbing and subbing back multiple times. I tried to go in an fire Dave Hakstol and he wasn't there to fire.The V6 Beta is a separate workshop item make sure you are subscribed to the right one.
This has probably been asked a million times, but how do I add Seattle and the expansion draft to the game?
thanks in advance.
Always nice to see when # of club legend goes to the rafters
It's funny, yet slightly OT. This year, in the real world, we currently have a whole bunch of 'very good/star' players either on the block, or exploring Free Agency.
I always chuckle when I see some players give reviews on Steam or even years ago here when posters would complain that many players of that caliber wouldn't be 'on the block' or on Free Agency.
Hey, is he good? (he's a defenseman!)
The game is more realistic than people give it credit for.
Similarly, I never found the draft that "bad" - often had late rounders make the NHL.
The big way to "cheat" the game though is to continually trade the rights of failed prospects for 1st rounders far in the future. Do this every year and you constantly have 3-4 first rounders... But obviously you have to actively go out of your way to do that.
This will be a bit of a long-winded post, but yes, I agree. Yes - the cheating part is a simple cop-out, especially with the case of EHM07. You could pull off more 'quantity for quality' deals in the older version.
The way how 'players rights' are viewed by teams needs to be somewhat fixed by the AI. Unless I am missing something (or not understanding it), some teams will have failed prospect rights until they retire. If you can play it just right, you can trade all your 1-star valued prospects for late round picks.
I think another big problem with the expectations of certain tidbits of EHM is dealing with the competitors of the game (EA, FHM)
I find EA's product to be wildly inconsistent and inaccurate, especially when it comes to the draft side. You will have players complain about how there are not many NHL-ready prospects, but yet when you play EA NHL, you are showered with Top-6 players and Franchise Forwards/Defense man that seemingly pop out of nowhere. I understand how the EHM regen/newgen system works, but EA's formula is something I could never understand.

Well yes, but problem is that bottom teams won't accept these kind of deals. Top to mid teams will, but then again those are mid - to - bottom 1st rounders which may not result in being NHL-ers let alone good one(s).

It's pretty easy to predict which top team will be trash 5 years from then.
Find a team whose stars are in their 30s and trade for their first 5 years from now. By the time the pick happens, they are often bottom feeders due to their stars declining or even retiring.
When I play that way, I get top10 picks pretty much every year.
