What a great surprise...

... to discover that there is a hockey sim in the works. I have a question. Will this game be fully editable, as my goal is to simulate the current NHL season using the exact lineups, lines, etc. that each team uses in a given game. There have been other games in the past that have had limits on the number of players per team (EA Sports) and/or would not allow for every team to be controlled by a human (EHM). Thanks in advance.

For what you are looking to do, it should be no problems with this game and doing that although, the time it would take could be a lot

All the league rules (including roster-related) will be editable. All rosters will be editable. Game schedule will be editable. I don't know if every team can be controlled by human but I'd expect it. There will be a commish mode in which you can do almost anything.

It sounds like FHM will be right up your street

It will be a lot of work at the start. I have to keep a spreadsheet of teams' rosters and who played on a given night, and also check the full play by play of each game to see what the lines were, including PP and PK.
Example: Play By Play
