My friend (Steelcharger) and I are finally done. We have created and moved and traded players to follow every teams roster as listed on the teams web page. All 30 teams are up to date as of 2/17/10. Perfect for Franchise mode. Turn off computer trading when making the Franchise so the teams stay current. The 2k Roster updates never cover everyone, I have noticed. I hope you all enjoy playing with up to date rosters. Just make trades yourself as they happen by following the transaction report on ESPN.com. 2K Share file name for rosters is: Perfect NHL Rosters.
Very nice roster! I started a new franchise with your roster version (mostly cuz i wanted to play with the leafs new guys) Here's a video i just uploaded from my first game http://community.2ksports.com/community/media/viewer.cfm?mediaid=1307523
Yeah, I noticed that too. Unfortunately, I cannot adjust the cap. We followed the teams websites perfectly, man for man. Everyone who should be in the NHL is there. Perhaps the actual caps are incorrect or the players that I had to create that were not in the game are given a default salary which you cannot control. I just try to keep the salaries under the cap. Honestly, it doesnt matter about the cap. As long as the roster is correct and you keep up to date by following the transaction reports to keep the rosters current it all works out.
Hey, as everyone knows today is the trade deadline. Streak and I will be updating the rosters tonight and uploading them for your use
I uploaded a trial roster last night. I had to make some changes because the NHL allows 16 Forwards on a team 2K hockey allows 15. So I had to move guys around the AHL teams to get the rosters to work out. I will upload the finished version tonight. If your team isnt perfect, chances are they are in the AHL, if not, hook your team up. I could only make the major trades. Making trades that would require a draft pick in the trade (real NHL) screws up the rosters Salary caps. So i just assigned certain players to certain teams. Another issue was some of the guys were on the ECHL and were traded for AHL and even NHL guys. I wasnt making ECHL guys, so I just assigned them. Good Luck
