NHL 23 Missing Players?
Why are there players missing from the game? For example, the Habs don't have Kaiden Guhle or Arber Xhekaj and they are not part of Laval or their OHL teams...

Although daily or even weekly updates would be nice, I don’t think that’s quite necessary. I do think there are a few things that are must haves as far as rosters go though.
- To add to the convo you two have been having, I personally think there is enough evidence to suggest EA does have the player portraits much, much earlier than they are added to the game. If they actually don’t, an automated email set up at the beginning of the year to be sent to teams monthly as a reminder would take no time to set up.
- We absolutely need the ability to merge our roster edits (or edits from a roster share) with a new EA roster update. Allow us to transfer the changes we made to players to a new roster update that way we don’t have to re-edit every player when important players are added or draft picks traded.
- Speaking of that, allow us to move draft picks!!!
- Finally, there is no reason that roster update notes can’t be provided detailing what changes are made with each update.
There seem to be more missing players than usual and a lot of that has to do with the fact that more CHL players (20 and younger) are playing in the AHL so they don’t appear at all in the game until the always late AHL roster update. There’s also a lot of good future NHL draft prospects not in the game who have played games on their respective teams.
It’s frustrating that a lot of good AHL prospects played in the AHL late last season but STILL aren’t in the game. The roster update that gets them in the game should be this week based on past games but I’m so tired of waiting this long to get realistic rosters for franchise. It shouldn’t take till December for this…
