Yea those are likely 170+ PA guys. I tweak coaches I know of, but almost nobody provides me any feedback on coaching types/attributes for Europe, so most of the staff is completely random.
Is the new 1.5 update also going to come with a redistribution of what ratings correspond to what roles? I think the current spread is something like 150-200 CA is a 1st liner, 140-150 CA is a 2nd liner, 125-140 CA is a 3rd liner and like 110-125 CA is a 4th liner. But I feel like with where the custom rosters are at, a more accurate representation is something like:
1st liners: 165 CA-200 CA
2nd liners: 150 CA-165 CA
3rd liners: 135 CA-150 CA
4th liners: 120 CA-135 CA
That's at least what the current ECK rosters would make me think. I'm a year into my sim so this isn't the exact starting rosters, but there are 132 F and D with a 170 CA or higher and I think that's pretty reasonable for how many legit 1st liners or top pair D are in the NHL. Another option is to decrease the current overalls in the ECK rosters, but I would think that increasing the overall CA requirement for certain roles would be more appropriate.

Oh I think you're doing a great job. I picked Gallant as soon as I could, then went w/ DJ Smith.
I guess it's only when you reach the randomly generated coaches that you get less Direct/Attacking/Attractive style or play and more that prefer Patient/Defensive. Not sure if the randomness can be tweaked to generate more Direct/Attacking/Attractive styles?
does anyone know how to do retention in a trade?
@xECK29x is it absolutely impossible to do the future transfers right now in the database?
Sometime I dont get this game.
AI is really bad with the tight cap, I may be expanding it a bit in the next update of the DB, especially with lack of LTIR for teams after TDL it will be impossible to play the game as teams that added salary late in the year. So very likely I’ll bump the cap $10-20m..
It’s crashing with anything I do on 1.4.1, it’s working completely in 1.5, I have over 1k in the extra_config I keep with then base DB.
makes sense, playing with the NCAA is so big for me and trying to play around with player reps to get the playable schools to sign guys from USHL and BCHL is so hit or miss. I can adjust their player reps to get signed but then they sign with the unplayable colleges
