For those of you who own NHL 2004, Can you tell me if there are actual people, like Ovechkin or Crosby, in the Drafts(for Dynasty Mode) or if it has some weird named people?

Thanks for your info.CanesFan10 said:I don't believe that they could put those names in there even if they wanted to. They aren't part of the players union so you won't find them in the game. Kind of like the NCAA games that don't have the real names, just the numbers.
By the way, can anyone list the names of the "rookies"(like Grebeshkov, Pitkanen, Ruutu, or even guys that have played 20-30 games in the NHL) that are included in the game and what their ratings are like?

Coffey77 said:Actually guys like Lehtonen and Ruutu are there. The Finnish, Swedish and German Leagues are there and so are the real players. There are even pictures for most of the players.
If you want to make them available for the dynasty mode, trade them in the "play now" section to their respective NHL squads for nothing.

Jussi said:Do these players have a certain category where they especially stand out (speed, shooting, checking etc.)?
Coffey77 said:I took a brief look at Lehtonen's ratings and they aren't that high. His potential is only in the 60's. That's not right. And consider that those ratings are compared to the rest of the Finnish league. Something is wrong there since Lehtonen has great numbers over in Finland.
As far as Ruutu, he doesn't stand out in one particular area, he's got great ratings everywhere. Skating, shooting, hitting, potential. You name the attribute and it's most likely at least an 80. Mikko Koivu's ratings are kind of like Ruutu's, only a little bit lower.

Thanks in advance
