So I'm totally new, and might not really get much of a say, but here's my two bits:

1. I like the idea of making regression based on Attribute Points instead of TPE. If you lose an appropriate percentage of attribute points, it'll be harder to earn back what you are losing.

2. Make it so that as you enter regression, the PT cap is lower (possibly on a progressive scale). It makes sense to me that you should not be able to improve as much in your 12th season as your 2nd.

3. Make it so that recruiting is not worth (as much) TPE. I entered last season late, and did all of the PTs for the last 3 weeks of the season... yet there are two S24 SMJHLers who have as much if not more TPE than me right now, because they recruited like crazy. I have a small internet presence, and so I can't recruit to the same degree as other people, but it seems absurd that after a half season in the SMJHL and my first SHL TTC, I'm still at the same TPE level as players who haven't completed their first PT post-draft. Is this a big problem? No. But it's still somewhere that players can earned bizarrely huge amounts of TPE.

-Final thoughts: everyone keeps talking about Jagr. Yes, Jagr is still playing and doesn't totally suck. But he's not still the Jagr he used to be. He has regressed, and he's possibly even regressed past the point that most other players would've thrown in the towel, despite his intense training and other measures he's taken to curb regression. People respect Jagr, but I don't think opposing teams fear him the way they did when he was in his prime. So I think that we should have a more severe regression system that will make it so that a player can't continue to be a god from season 10 - 17 coasting on banked TPE and the fact that they're not losing attribute points as much as they're being punished in what we seem to see as the primary pride marker of the SHL: TPE. No one says what their overall player rating is (I'm not sure that we even calculate that stat), they say what their TPE is. But the TPE doesn't give an infallible indication of success in the sim.

Sorry for the huge post, didn't think it would be this big.
