You are better off reducing their ratings severely so that the CPU never dresses them but keeping them on their respective NHL teams. The reason they are included is because of the cap implications that their contracts create.

Hypothetically, what would happen if you were 2 or 3 years into a franchise and wanted to import a real-world roster? Among many other things, players would re-appear who were already retired in your league. Even if you're at the same point in the season as real life, what if a team is more in position record-wise to be a buyer in your game, but a seller in real life? It's a logistical nightmare, and that's why none of the sports games allow you to do this in their season modes. Things like the NBA Today and Play Now Live that the other games do are different because they aren't full-featured franchise modes. NBA2K's "start today" comes closest as you can carry real-world results into your franchise start, but even that draws the line after you start the mode.

On that note, one thing I would love to see in NHL18 is the ability to prevent trades by the CPU but force trades for any team in the game. It's frustrating having to go back and forth with the AI GM's instead of just being able to do what you can do in The Show and force the trade.

Or, ideally, the AI would be improved to plan long-term with their team, and the trade deadline would be a little more exciting. Actual negotiating would be nice too. Like, you ask for Player X, and they say they would want Player Y, and Pick Z. Then you work from there.

Is it possible to import the latest rosters into the current season? I have done what I needed with the active roster so they're up to date, but the roster still says the same. Do I need to go to PS4 library and update that?

That's what I was wondering about. They're up to date outside, but when I load, they're not. So that does make sense.

Now that some college US players are signing entry level contracts will they be added in the next roster update? I'm assuming there will be another one for the playoffs right?

I sure hope so, there have been some pretty high end prospects who have signed
