Take your time Sauce. No hurry. The floodgates are open and it's going to be a long month.

Seems like the Metro Division is making alot of moves so they can keep pace with the Jackets and that playoff spot. 😃 

It's a love/hate thing.  I enjoy the outcome but the work can be annoying when you think that there will be a break in the trade activity and have other distractions.  But, as we saw, recently, with Mikko Rantanen to the Hurricanes or even Luka Doncic to the Lakers, trade timing can be unpredictable mid-season.  Teams trying to get out ahead before the trade deadline.  Even as I re-posted last night, my fingers were crossed that "big activity" will die down until after the Four Nations Tournament.  TBD.

I hope that the Blue Jackets make the playoffs this year.  Even though they are a competitor, it makes for a good story given the tragedy of Johnny Gaudreau.  I think Dean Evason is a underrated coach as well. 

I'm a Rangers fan but I don't see them making the playoffs.  The Metro is too strong right now and they dug themselves into a hole.  Bad roster management and overpaid, spoiled/entitled little brats.  They need to focus on getting rid of lazy/disinterested and moody players and get some skaters with some plums in their bags!  Re-tool for next year when the cap goes up.  

Anywho...thanks for the continued support and kind words.  The latest version of the ROMs (v7 of the UHC and v1 of the Mammoth) are in the OP.  They reflect recent activity up to yesterday.  Enjoy and cheers!

I'm already playing v7. Great stuff.

Nice work Sauce!  Looking forward to playing some games tonight.  
 

Nice job with the Mammoth logo.  Looks cool!  I’m partial to Outlaws for the new name but can see Mammoth winning out.

Thanks!  Just hope that they get away from Utah Hockey Club as this isn't Premier League Soccer.

Agree. UHC isn’t a good name.  Enjoying your latest version!  Thanks again!

For anyone interested, the voting continues for the UHC and their new name and logo.  Below, is what they proposed as names/logos to fans.  The Mammoth logo that I am using is pretty close to what they showed fans.  Kinda hope it wins now.  LOL

Have to assume that these are placeholder logos.  They look like something from Create-A-Team mode from the EA video games.

Hey Sauce- with several injured guys returning from long term absence, will you be doing an updated version before the trade deadline?  Or, after?

Hey - been doing some travelling, as of late, so I haven't put much time into it.  With the deadline not far away, assuming there isn't a HUGE/EPIC/BLOCKBUSTER trade this week, I'll just do a updated release around that time.

I took off from work today and have been doing some updates to the rom as we speak.  Expect to have something posted over the next couple of days, before the weekend is over.  It's a work combo of moving players, creating players (in some cases), updating photos/headshots, ratings, etc. (for the UHC and Mammoth versions).  But, it shall be done!

Hi!  I just posted the Trade Deadline versions of my UHC and Mammoth ROMs.  Luke Schenn's new jersey number has yet to be confirmed as he is not with the team.  I didn't feel like waiting...
As #2 and #22, numbers he wore in the past, are both taken, I gave him #52.  He wore it when he was with the Kings.  If it ends up being incorrect, I'll fix it when I do the "playoff" version of these roms.

Guys confirmed as done for the season (Jack Hughes) have been removed.  Guys who are injured and may return before season's end or have yet to be confirmed as "done", are still in the game.  They are likely just not in the active rosters.  Up to the user if they want to use them.

For more details on the ROMs, please see the original post.  Make sure, if you are interested in downloading the ROM(s), to download one noted as "Trade Deadline Version."  

If you notice any mistakes (numbers, handedness, spelling, wrong team, etc.), please feel free to let me know.

Thanks for posting it!  Been playing it today and it’s great!  The trade deadline was certainly an interesting one even though my Flames were quiet.

Thanks as always for your work with this. Just wanted to mention I noticed this rom has Detroit in the Western Conference instead of the East...

Thanks for checking it out!

Detroit is not in a conference, persay, as I did the playoff brackets based on regions like the NHL does for pre-season scheduling.  Check out the original post, on page 1 of this thread, for more detail and a screenshot of how the brackets work/look.  It will be the correct brackets when we know who makes it in and I post a "playoff version."

If you have any questions or notice anything else, feel free to ask!

He ended up choosing #5.  I was half right.  LOL
Oh well, I'll fix it in the "playoff edition."

I may be the minority vote here but I kinda like the regional bracket thing for the rivalries.  When you do your playoff version, is it possible to still include them plus the real life brackets?

After 8 scoreless periods by the Jackets, I think it's safe to say that playoff run is over.

Given how the Rangers and Red Wings continue to shoot themselves in the foot (especially, the former), and Montreal's chance is anyone's guess (as they've been a bit of a quiet surprise), I'd say keep the faith.  The Jackets making it to the playoffs would make for a nice story.
