Quote:User's perspective: With a season on FHM in the books and a free redistribution gifted by HO for the offseason, what did you decide to change about your player build? Did you drastically change your build from last season? If so, why? Are you going to be trying to fit into a new role this season? What did you learn from last season's pilot run?

Before the start of last season, I submitted an FHM build aimed at being versatile. I wanted Cal to be useful for the team, and I wanted my GMs to be able to effectively use Cal in multiple offensive roles. His best role was the setup man, but counter-attacking forward and playmaker were close and he could even be useful as a sniper, perimeter shooter, speedy forward or dangler. During the season however, it became clear that Cal wasn't going to play in any other role than setup man, although we tried counterattacking forward a few games as well. Therefore, I decided to use the free redistribution to increase the attributes for that role a bit more.
On the other hand, I felt like Cal could've done a little better on the physical/defensive side of the game. Therefore I decided to also raise his checking attribute to ten, to give Cal a bit more of an opportunity to get that puck posession back early in the forecheck and take the game back to where Cal excels on the ice: the offensive zone.
