Community ManagerHello again. Can you tell me if a custom roster was used? Also, what are the settings you're using for your Franchise Mode? Salary cap and any other custom settings. We're having a hard time reproducing this so far so it's possible you have some settings that we're not using. Anything else you can tell us, especially in regards to your roster, would help. Thanks!
Yes, I was using a custom roster.
I had moral off, chemistry off, waivers off, fog of war off, salary cap is on with the default settings and penalties for it.
I did not add on an extra contract year for contracts. I had played a total of 6 games into my franchise.
Plenty of teams had lower numbers of overal team contracts.
Unrelated to the roster issue - when creating an AHL team for the expansion (33 team) franchise option, could the mascots be unlocked for AHL team creation, they have been locked prior and rarely shown, however with the updates to presention they are now more prominent, so it would be good to be able to customize them.

Thanks. I've passed this on and will let you know when I have an update.
I'll relay the feedback about editing mascots for you.
