That is reasonable. How is it currently looking? Is it about an equal split to the current positions? Do the percentages of active players follow the percentages of available spots?

And I JUST got FHM8 too.

But hopefully the switch over will be good and hopefully the expansion will result in more opportunities for people.

What are these sexy new improvements that the FHM 10 engine provides the league? What changes in the sim can we look forward to? It's nice to say "there are a bunch of improvements", but if you are giving it the green light for next season or the following one to switch than there are some things that are known. I haven't looked into it at all, but some things I would hope for are of course increased player agency through viable alternative builds, goalies mattering, and I guess an improved sim experience? But I'll be the first one to say I don't watch the sims and don't really care about them. I don't think it's likely they get to PBE quality, so our little icons will continue to fly around the ice and put the puck through the back of the net.

Is the SHL paying me $700K+ USD to play on the 4th line?

4th lines are reserved for emergency cases where we need roster spots faster than we can expand. In any other situation, they are impractical for the purposes of this league. Same applies to 4th D pair.
