My computer crashed the other day and corrupted my original file, but did a second try with the Portland Rosebuds - with much more luck!

I feel bad for the Habs though.
At the end of my first year, I traded my 6th OA pick to the Montreal Canadiens for their 13th OA pick and 2023, 2024, 2025 first rounders.

They got 3 years worth of an underwhelming Simon Nemec, while I drafted several studs. They're still in the basement in 2029 oops.

In 2024 I lucked out big time as they won the lottery - a hard choice to make but I went with high ceiling Cole Eiserman.

Wow what a player, he just finished a season of 79 goals and 148 points in 87 games - beating the "New NHL" record for most goals, points in a season and most points in the American Championships.

And with the last few drafts being completely dry, I don't see him stopping, being 22 and all

Maybe he can be a 70 in 70 guy…pretty close the last season!

I’ll probably include some ‘light’ prospect “generation” for the next version of NHLX - especially including specifically targeting growth in non-traditional markets - mainly so the database can bridge the ‘gap’ in draft class strength from real prospects born in the 2005-2008 range until later in the sim when extensive retirement and those “partial regens” help to make the drafts better again. It won’t be nearly as extensive as the prospect generation in the Pivot rosters but it should help those intermediate draft years.

My goal also is to give all nations a chance (though certainly not a certainty due to the randomness of the PA variables) of having “Golden Generations” that can lift the profile of their nations in the hockey universe.

Funny enough, I think he was closer to 60 in 60 than 50 in 50

But yeah, might be able to go Goal-per-Game. His C is Dalibor Dvorsky, another phenom. RW is W. Nylander. Perhaps if I can keep the 3 together!

Hello, I'm having trouble using the new EHM editor. When I try to load/open a database it crashes.
Going to need more information:

1) Are you running the latest version of the Editor (v1.1.7)?
2) Have you installed the pre-requisite package: https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/VC_redist.x64.exe?
3) What database are you trying to open and from what directory?
4) When you say crash, does it throw any error, can you post a screenshot?

I posted at SI games community in bug forums, but interested if anyone ever experienced that player refuses to join NT while being on NT roster during WC ? Year is 2044/2045. and this screen is taken before 1/4 finals.

Wow, it's amazing I continue to learn new things this game can do. What is this players mental report card?

Weird nothing there like low work effort or anything, was he coming off an injury or something?
No, I was managing Team Canada, played all round - robin games and before quarters (or maybe semis) he got this rfs icon.

This game is pretty simple, Vezina is decided by AVR with a GP minimum I'd imagine.

Can you link me to the DB? I bet the header is corrupted, I can probably fix it.
nvm about that one sorry I got confused. I'm trying to load this data base [2021-22] xECK29x's Premier Pivot Database (v6.11 - Final Release for 2021-22) but I can't find it in the list.

Use this download to edit xECK29x-Rosters-v6.11.zip

Put it in your \Steam\steamapps\common\Eastside Hockey Manager\data\database\[foldername] folder. Whatever your name that folder is how it will show up in the list.

Just a small update from my end, I already have a lot of work done for 2022-23, most of the playable leagues have been updated (club reps, rankings, club/player/league histories and rosters based on signings/extensions so far). For the NHL I put in some placeholder award winners and I'm 4 rounds through a placeholder draft. This should be ready for some beta testing soon, definitely before the draft.

In my 10.000 + hours of playing EHM since 2004 version I never experienced my goalie winning Vezina. :dunno:

If you miss the Vezina vote and let the AI vote in your place, it will often vote for the runner up (now winner) if the Vezina winner should actually be your own goalie.

How do I activate the World Cup from your database @xECK29x? It just kinda keeps bumping the tournament back every time I run a test.
