2-way deals with UFA's show up as 1-way

Product: NHL 17
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Summarize your bug Franchise Mode bug: When signing a UFA to a 2-way contract (select 2-way when offering deal), after the deal is signed the contract shows up as a 1-way contract. It's hard to build depth when I have to pay NHL salaries for an AHL team.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go into Free Agents under Franchise Mode, find a player that is willing to accept a 2-way contract (usually low 80's or 70's overall). Offer him a contract, offer him the NHL salary he wants but select 2-way for Contract type. Once offering the contract, click on Advance Day a few days until he accepts the deal. Then go into your Contracts and his deal will show up as a 1-way deal.
What happens when the bug occurs? Contracts show up as 1-way, when they should be a 2-way contract
What do you expect to see? 2-way contracts for players that agree to 2-way contracts

    I have found a workaround for the 2 Way vs 1 Way issue.

    When you offer a contract, go to the 2 Way/1 Way toggle and toggle to 1 Way and then back to 2 Way. It will drop the years to one and the salary to the league minimum so you will need to retoggle these (but should be easy since 2 Ways are generally cheap/short).

    Done this now about ten times and it has worked every time. Also, to make sure it wasn't a patch and for a control, I just accepted a contract without doing the above and it changed from a 2 Way to 1 Way after signing, proving the problem is still there.

    Let me know if this does/doesn't work for you.
