Sorry for the delay needs to get some more tests from other people in so I know things are stable. Archi should be able to upload it to the account by Friday. I’ll update Pivot this weekend.

TBL v17 posted, basically a re-release of the October Pivot update with fixes. Thank you @archibalduk for uploading!

If you select the KHL as playable you cannot use the Russia start date, it must be July 2nd!

General Updates:
- Rosters refreshed for all playable and some non-playable leagues
-- I tried to keep European clubs as close to their start of season rosters as possible
- Added a lot more real junior players (through 2010 YOB) globally
- Updated Aggressiveness/Dirtiness/Agitation across the DB -- thanks Imactuallyanotter!
- Updated clubs/competition names and colors -- thanks Dani9!!
- Updated several leagues which was using the sort rule "Own Match" to determine points tie breakers. This sort rule has been found to be buggy in the game and has been lowered in priority, should result in some more accurate standings sorting. -- thanks Kywoo Rae!!
- Fixed many scheduling inconsistencies and incorrect priority values -- thanks Riz!!

International Updates:
- Removed World Cup and Euro Hockey Tour for now until it comes back for real to reduce the amount of international tournaments the game has to worry about and schedule
-- I tried re-using the World Cup by moving it to February to turn it into the "Four Nation Faceoff" but the game will not allow it to use NHLers.
- Loosened date placement to give more flexibility for the game to schedule tournaments, date placement may not align to real life but we need to reduce potential crashing and increase stability long-term.
- Updated Olympic Tournament dates -- thanks Weepy!!

NHL updates:
- Updated injuries, positions and jersey numbers from PuckPedia Depth Charts
- Updated dates of arena moves for Calgary and Ottawa (guess I was way too optimistic!)
- Relocated ASG to February 16th which should fix the issue where teams were getting rescheduled duplicate games -- thanks CJMattias!!
- Cleaned up RFAs
- Retired out LTIR players such as Ellis and Price
- Updated prospect pools based on rankings and season roundup scouting reports from EliteProspects (NHL Prospect Pool Rankings - EPrinkside)

Canadian Updates:
- Updated OHL draft picks, will eventually get around to QMJHL and WHL, it's a lot of updates!

French Updates:
- Updated U20 and U18 clubs and competitions

North American Updates:
- Cleaned up junior rights for players with 2004 YOBs
- Updated Alberta AA leagues and clubs

Russian Updates:
- Fixed issues with KHL structure by reverting to older version.
- Cleaned up some conflicting transfer rules causing issues -- may not align to real life, but we have to work within the limits of the game.
- Updated KHL Transfer Rules -- thanks Wolski!!
- Updated KHL salaries and award history -- thanks Angry Duck!!

Slovak Updates:
- Updated schedule and league structure for Extraliga - slight date changes needed to accommodate max length of playoffs
- Updated clubs and league structure for 1.liga -- thanks Džuradž for the report and testing!!

Swedish Updates:
- Updated affiliations, captains and rivals in SHL, HA and HE -- thanks Aahlstroem!!
- Updated starting injuries in SHL and HA -- thanks Aahlstroem!!
- Updated J20 Nationell clubs and playoff format -- thanks Aahlstroem!!
- Updated U16 and J18 clubs -- thanks Aahlstroem!!
- Updated HockeyEttan clubs, and league structure, some teams promoted to Ettan to make league an even 40 teams to allow for consistent promotion/relegation -- thanks Vik3tbotselektor and Aahlstroem!!
- Updated HockeyTvåan clubs in preparation for it becoming playable in a future update -- thanks Aahlstroem!!

Pivot update to come by end of next week with transaction updates through Oct/Nov.

Used to be a long time player of this series. Just wondering, does this game still get regular game updates or is it pretty much just modders doing stuff at this point?

Official releases are now very few and far between. The last major update was v1.5 beta released in April 2021. There were some minor beta bugfixes released, the last of which was May 2022. There's a further private bugfix build which will be released at some point but I've no idea when.

So yes it is largely modders at this point.
