That looks so wrong LOL
We don't know their respective ages though.
Besides, you can actually alter players skills manually if the database is not up to par with this forum section's tastes.
Would still be easier than when I in an older version had to create all iron curtain players(Including pre-war czechs and other europeans) from scratch just to insert them in their draft year. Did create good competition in the WHA though so it was totally worth it. I changed league average goals per game a little as i went along after the added player pools sizes, strengths and weaknesses.
And while at it, why not create your floorball self and play from you were 18? Naturally i also boosted Pominville's work ethic, or killer instinct if you so wish. The guy was just too soft especially during the DPE, had all that talent squandered. In other scenarios i instead force signed him to my hometown Sweden Hockey League team, or only during lockouts...

Even if this mixed thing with players debuting whenever certainly is a novelty i believe the average goals per game still follow the real life situation which i certainly would adjust going into each season. Easiest way is probably to just put it at 6.00 each season. Roenick mentioned above for example played during Howe's prime days which is the reason he had "only" two 60 point seasons.

These are stats prior to the 1923/1924 season in my random debut game. As already mentioned, I am GM of Montreal Canadiens, and we managed to win the Cup in 1920/1921. :)
