No Custom Rosters in BAP?

I have started 5 different BAP careers so far and as soon as I get drafted, I see that the game is using the default rosters from launch.  Any updated rosters or custom rosters don't load so Marner is still in Toronto, not Vegas and K'Andre Miller is still on the Rangers not Carolina.  Another community manager said that you can only use custom rosters if you create a career and go straight to the NHL because the game won't load custom rosters for the U20 Worlds.  What?  Why?  How does using custom rosters in an offline BAP mode matter?  I am happy wiht the changes to bAP mode, it is what made me give this year a shot after skipping NHL 25 becasue BAP was untouched since 2023.  So the revamped BAP had me excited to get back in, but this one flaw totally ruins any kind of immersion.  I get that if you play season to season, the game may trade players to different teams that don't match real world trades, but guys what is this?  the NHL Multiverse?  This has to be an oversight and surely it could be fixed easily.  this wouldn't call for a major code refactoring or rebuild of the BAP (if it does...good lord what are you guys doing over there?)

give this a fix!  please!

    Hey there. The Memorial Cup and Champions Hockey League use a pre-draft roster from before Marner was traded. If you use the option to start in the NHL, you'll see the updated rosters.
