Nice to see that player handedness & height/weight have been added. Otherwise all changes cosmetic. Still missing a few things to become a top-tier game for me. Things I would like to see are more nations, reworked player names (especially US/CAN players are all named after real-life players which breaks immersion), player career stats, player roles (2wf etc.), separation of F & D lines, and off-ice interactions. Still the best hockey manager game out there though and looking forward to more.

Hi JJ Shepherd, thanks for a great review! We are always trying to improve the game experience and next up is the implementation of player chemistry. We would also like to add player roles, career stats and much more in the future :)

Surprisingly addictive, but still an overall poor game (but getting better). There is little to do during downtime, and mostly it's: build upgrade, wait 7 days (or pay). Want to train an individual player? Pay. Your players are tired, run out of cards? Pay. I would recommend for those who would be okay spending money. Still, surprisingly addictive.

It's a real waiting game. you upgrade stuff and it's takes 10 hours to complete. also the league matches are every 24 hours. every time I go on the game I have to wait 14 hours or so until the next match. prices keep going up the more you buy with real money. that's not good at all man. smart but not smart enough. I really do like the game as well but if you have to spend ridiculous amounts of real money then I'll just go somewhere else. and I'm sure a lot of people are thinking the same thing to
