Depends if you're going to sim or play most of the games. There is an incredible amount of injuries to players when you simulate an entire game. I've had seasons where I've been forced to take up half the AHLers to the main rooster several times. So if you're simming I recommend playing with injuries off during the season, then maybe activate them for the playoffs if you still would like some issues to deal with but not get interrupted every single game with tedious rooster moves.

Apart from that the playing is the same as in other modes.

Slow sim speed and the cpu teams trading away veterens most would never trade.

As opposed to the secondary rooster. He gets no hens.

I suggest turning injuries off if you plan on simming. ea has never figured this out, the
game simply had to many damn injuries when simming a season.always had been this way on ea sports games.

Play with the salary cap on though, without it there is no challenge at all.

I plan on playing all my teams games so should I leave injuries on ?

If you plan on playing, then "yes", leave injuries 'on'. The injury slider does make an impact on number of injuries. I play with my slider set at 3 and see a typical amount of injuries. In my first season I had a part of my season experience a rash of injuries and other parts see very little in the way of injuries.

False. Hens still lay eggs, they just lay unfertilized eggs.


On topic. i haven't ran into too many bugs and there's lots of veterans on the block, but it doesn't bother me much. If a team is having a terrible year then they could easily dump veterans for draft picks. Everyone was wondering what would happen with Iginla at the trade deadline despite playing his whole career at Calgary. Same with Steve Ott.
