GM Connected - Players missing after trade
In a GM Connected PS3 league I traded for a player. The team I traded with ended up with the player he traded for but I didn't end up with the player I traded for. Where is the player I traded for?

Community AdminHeya everyone,
After investigating your reports further, the issue still appears to be that your team has gone above either the salary cap or the roster limit. If you are over the limit during a tick advance, the game will automatically attempt to resolve this violation, either by placing the player on waivers or by releasing them.
Now if the player is released, he will be going to Free Agency at the start of the next NHL season in the GM Connected league. Then they can be resigned, but they will not be shown on a roster until then.
We hope this clarifies the situation and you should able to confirm this once your GM Connected league reaches its next NHL season.
Please learn about hockey and your own game before you tell us that nothing will be done. You say players are 1) going through waivers (which it is clear they are not since no team as them,) or 2) being released (which cannot be because in your game, player contracts cannot be bought out midseason nor can you outright release a player as salary cap issues are resolved by sending people to the minors so their salary doesn't count against you.)
Whether or not the teams are complient with the salary cap is not the issue. The issue is that the player CANNOT simply disappear from all rosters without it being a serious glitch that needs to be addressed. If the player went through waivers, that would be one thing. If players were being released, that would be understandable too, but the game, as programmed, does not allow that.
Even if we assume the teams are over the cap, the players should go somewhere that the game would ordinarily allow, not vanish. You don't understand the issue if you don't understand how this is unacceptable.
