NHL Season Crashing - All user teams - Crashes when simulating next game

You'd need to wait a lot longer than a few days to see certain changes made because of certification, testing, hours actually coding etc. etc.

From what i can gather this seems to be a fairly common issue so I can only assume it's higher up on their list of priorities; hopefully you see a fix soon

The only video I have will not convert because it’s extension type isn’t supported apparently. This is highly frustrating and inconvenient because I can’t advance my season at all with it being the main reason I play this game and I don’t want to start a new one when that doesn’t guarantee to solve this issue. I’ve faced a similar problem with this mode since NHL 11. And the community reported this same crash bug on the franchise mode for NHL 19. As a long time player of the EA NHL franchise since 98, I’ve skipped buying the last 3 games; so coming back to this is very upsetting and unacceptable. Please do something about this ASAP.

Same thing happens with me

I'm seeing a similar issue where I can't advance past December 31, 2019.

Hello, everyone. Normally when you can't sim past a specific date, it means the save file is corrupt. You can try loading an earlier save to see if that may work. If you're on Xbox, you can try deleting the personal saved data, but I can't guarantee you wouldn't lose your offline saves. To delete it you highlight the NHL tile, hit the Menu button (the one to the right of the guide button), go to Manage game & add-ons > Saved Data. Delete the file for your gamertag. For PS4, you can try rebuilding the database and restoring licenses.

After these steps, if you still have the same issue, most likely you'll need to start over. Always make sure you save and quit instead of letting your system go into sleep mode, switching to another app/game or just powering it down. Saving and quitting has the best chance of not causing any data corruption.

Sorry for the trouble, everyone. I know it's incredibly frustrating to lose your progress ☹️
