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?

Heya everyone, Please first check if the salary cap is the issue by reading this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/NHL-14/GM-Connected-Players-missing-after-trade/m-p/1528293#M1487 Should this not be the case, you can assist us in investigating this further by posting the following: PS3 or Xbox Gamertag / PSN ID GM Connected League Name Timeframe when this happened Any details you can provide (such as player involved). Cheers, Nils

Heya 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.

Do you know if the trade you made put you over the salary cap? If you were over the cap when the schedule period advanced, the game will make adjustments to put you under the cap. That might mean dropping a player.

I've chatted a bit with the team and this is what I've been told is probably happening: I’d relay that its important to be UNDER the salary cap before the tick advances. If you are over the cap, the team will be forced to make moves to compensate, and that’s where weird things can happen, like star players getting put on waivers and sent to the minors. It may appear that the cap is still being affected if the team brings up additional players to meet the minimum number. If they remain below the cap at the end of every tick, this shouldn’t ever happen. In the case of the first poster, they likely traded up in salary, and went over the cap. They advanced the tick. Other team was fine as they went down in cap space, but now showstrikesback is over the cap so his team did something to compensate, which unfortunately ended up being putting his big new cap hit star player on waivers.

No one is listening. They will fix it for NHL 15. Not worth the effort to do it now, you already paid for the game.

Traded for Kyle okposo. Schedule moved forward he is missing from my team and the islanders. Cap hit is still on my books and the players I traded are missing from both teams. Islanders have 19.833 million in cap space. It also shows up on team transactions feed that I acquired him.

I traded Klingberg and a 1st round Ottawa pick for Landeskog and (Buf) 2nd Round pick to LA. I received the 2nd round pick, but no Landeskog. LA received both the 1st round pick, and Klinkberg.
