Hey there gamers quick update on the 90-91 Retro Database for Eastside Hockey Manager.
I am officially over 50% complete of the NHL main roster. The Toronto Maple Leafs and Pittsburgh Penguins are now complete. I went back and added a few missed prospects for Quebec and Detroit. I was looking at HC CSKA Moscow's 91 roster and noticed Kamensky, Kovalenko, and Konstantinov missed as prospects. They also had a 19 year old named Pavel Bure, wow what a squad. These teams took a huge gamble drafting Soviet players hoping they would defect. This roster building experience is almost like a research project. When reviewing the Maple Leafs front office at that time I learned that long time infamous owner Harold Ballard passed away in 1990. Then there was this power struggle between his son William Ballard and Toronto business man Steve Stavro. Stavro ended up pushing out William Ballard to take majority ownership of Maple Leaf Gardens Ltd. owning the Toronto Maples Leafs and Maple Leaf Gardens. It is also fun coming across names I haven't heard in a lifetime. I forgot Vincent Damphousse was a Maple Leaf before he was a Canadien.
Still tons of work to complete before this will be ready for testing. I started this project in about June and 50% complete the NHL. Realistically June 2025 might be the date where I have the NHL and most of the farm teams completed. For the CHL I am thinking I will just use CA/PA and not play with the attributes which will make creating those teams quicker as for NHL I am also editing attributes for players older than 23.
Here are a few screenshots of recent changes:
Stay tuned for more updates if you love EHM and love Retro Hockey.
Stay safe out there gamers!
