I attempted a second season where I started from scratch and simmed past the day that the game broke. Everything was fine. I made a trade (can't recall if it was that same one or not) and the season broke. Same thing. Unable to move past that day.
I then restarted and simulated maybe 6 seasons to get past that point where my team had a record somewhat close to what it was in the original season. At this point, the game no longer breaks the season when I attempt a trade, instead literally 100% of trade attempts tell me that a team will be left with less than 2 playable goalies. I have been playing NHL since 96 so I know all the tricks to get around this (which is another massive headache each year) but none of them work. No trades will go through.
I hope this helps.

- How many trades have you previously made up until the point it started freezing/crashing? I had made one trade before actually playing any games. Played a couple more games and then made the Toffolli trade. Maybe one or two more right then. After game 4 or 5 made the four trades listed above (and received the less than 2 playable goalies error for the Keane/Gautier trade so I released someone from Charlotte to free agency)
- Is this a season/franchise with a custom roster - YES. Only customized in the sense that I have made trades since the last update to follow real life. Not created players. No created teams.
- Can you submit a screenshot of the trade that is freezing and/or recorded video clip of you slowly navigating all the menus prior to it freezing. No, because it doesn't freeze during the trades. The trade is made then the freeze happens when you try to play the next game.
- Have you tried reinstalling the game prior to this - YES
- Do you use an external hard drive for your PS4/XB1 - NO

I thought that a trigger may be the roster errors that you often get making trades in a season - injured players wreak havoc as they seem to count on the roster only in the trade screens and so even one for one swaps are not allowed. Instead I traded every player to the minor league affiliate and then swapped players between AHL teams before swapping players back up to the NHL
I hope this helps.
Same issue as everybody else. Was updating rosters to match mil trade deadline. 1st goalie error.
Then buzzing sound when indent to play game.
Only did Islander trades. Pague and minor league one. Now can't trade or drop anyone, nor play season game
