However, my first instinct is that this is a change that was probably necessary, although I'm a big fan of how long the SHL allows players careers to be compared to other sim leagues and it is painful for me to see this career path become less viable now. I also agree that the communication of this wasn't handled perfectly, people should have been given more notice or we should have found a system that doesn't have the psychologically devastating effect of some players losing 400+ TPE at once.

Long-term however, I think people from the S53 and S54 classes will be fine. I've never been a fan of treating TPE like a highscore and I can only encourage people to let go of that mindset because it's what causing most of your pain right now. At the end of the day it doesn't matter if you have 2000 TPE or 2200, what matters is where you stand in relation to the rest of the league. You guys still get your time at the top of the league, just with a slightly smaller number at the top of your player profile - which won't really matter because everyone elses number will be smaller as well. Maybe your edge will be a bit smaller or shorter than that of the people that came before you, but at the end of the day that's exactly the intention behind this change, for the top of the league to feel less set in stone. Even if you (understandably) hate to hear it: It did have to start somewhere. At the end of the day, "People in the past used to have advantages that ultimately turned out to be bad for our community as a whole, so now that it's my turn I should get those same advantages as well!" is just not a good argument. both in a league like this and when it comes to a lot of real world social issues.

I also don't see anyone having a big disadvantage in terms of alll-time stats or HOF consideration. The current generation of players is set to smash most of the old career records anyway thanks to the new engine and the 66 game seasons that both lead to higher point totals for the very top of the league and to more consistent and generally higher scoring even for people lower on the depth charts. So we are in a new statistical era anyway and since we are still ironing out the problems that came with the engine switch, things will naturally fluctuate a bit from season to season and some players will end up getting a bit luckier with that than others.

I just want to say this is a great post.

Ha, good point. Major changes I can think of:
- 350 -> 425 TPE SMJHL cap
- elimination of capped TPE
- STHS -> FHM sim engine
- 50 -> 66 games / season
- update scale change to reduce number of high skills

Wonder what's next

You even remember some that I forgot. Another one that mostly hurt goalies a little (I know I'm one of the few active that are even left from that era) was the change from buying equipment every season to coaching. Skaters always got more equipment TPE than goalies, that's different now and it's easier for goalies to earn as much as skaters do. At least it's fair now, just came too late.
I feel I've been screwed over in so many cases here already only trying to max earn and keep my player as long as possible knowing that's my only player in the league. I really don't feel like making another one after this. We'll see how long I can continue with the new scale. I'm kind of glad most of those creating later don't have those problems but now with this new change.... Looks like there is always something new that screws over some draft classes.

Well this is fucking stupid

***HabsFanFromOntario*** · 12-03-2021, 04:38 AM

The larger issue is TPE inflation not regression.

RED is spot-on.

Goalies are better under 1K anyways. Can I take more tpe away for regression?

Goalie performance depends entirely on their team. Dodgy

But less than a week earlier the league also introduces this for rookies?

(Yes, I'm including J and SHL together)
IMO making regression a season earlier thus lowering the peak, is what allows introduction of new TPE opportunities.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PATTY DONT TELL ME THERE'LL BE EVEN MORE TO DO TO BECOME A HIGH EARNER

Also, i saw someone talking about to make up for this we should be raising pay for graphics and maybe media idk. That's the last thing we should do tbh.
