After finishing a season I was reading through the trophy winners and I noticed this;
Check the runner-up on the selke trophy - Yes it's the real one!
It always has some odd choices for the Selke. I'm not sure how the game picks who wins or is nominated. I've noticed several times that the forward doesn't even have good defensive skills yet they always win.

Also no idea how Pittsburgh manages to miss the playoffs when their top players are ~+80. Worst bottom six ever?
Defense scoring seems a little high in the new database.

Wow, dem assists! I haven't really played around with the new DB. I wonder what caused defensemen to suddenly start producing so much more.

Looks like you have the game settings on quick sim instead of full detail. That will adjust scoring in general. Otherwise it's nearly impossible for defensemen to get more than about 60 points
When playing as Junior teams anyone else offer their guys out on loan as opposed to sending them to your affiliate? I usually keep some older guys wwithout much potential on my affiliate in case of injuries, but I find sending younger guys to better leagues is better for their development.
