We’ve changed how UHS handles NHL players with injuries. Previously, we simply removed the player from the team and had them placed in free agency, however, this meant any team could then pick them up, despite being injured.

We will now keep the player on the team but have them set to be injured for 99 games. Once the real team takes the player off the injured reserve list (again, going by the data on CapFriendly.com), we’ll unset the injury. If you want to use the player anyway, you can still go in and edit their injured games back to 0.

This change takes effect for new leagues or leagues importing NHL Teams w/ players or leagues importing NHL Players individually. It will not change the injury status of NHL Players that already exist in your league.
