I've noticed that contracts inflation has gone down drastically in the past couple weeks, BUT I've stop changing everything to high.

I'm seeing a lot more 2-1 or 3-0 scores instead of the 5-6 or 10-0. So, that might have been a major contributing factor.

Leon Draisaitl hit the open market in my last season and he only wanted 12 million for 7 years. With a 94 overall, I jumped on that

    Hmm. I always have simulated scoring on low and shooting on high. Maybe that’s why I don’t have the problem as bad as you guys?

      Great catch @kyl_35 , I was wondering why I haven’t come across this myself so that’s interesting as I use the same settings as you.

      I’ve also noticed I don’t have the demands stay high once September hits. If a player (other than an rfa) isn’t signed by the start of the season, their ask usually drops to an acceptable level.

        @Beauts90 i think that's just because they want to play on a team instead of sitting out the year

      @kyl_35 I’ve always had the scoring on default settings, so medium. Never touched the shooting stuff too often… how does that make the goalies stats? I was always worried about having the goalies either be too good, or too bad. Never found a medium balance..
      I wish EA could make it so that the default settings don’t * everything up… or really have any settings * anything up lol..

        Goalie stats are a bit higher than normal and it’s pretty frequent that you get a goalie conn smythe winner, but that’s what I personally want, lol. 

        I’m betting it would be fine if you leave the shooting the same and just lower the scoring.

    I had Makar ask for no less that 18 million in FA, while McDavid and Draisaitl were signed for less than 24 mil total. It does seem to be a bit better, but it certatinly is still broken
