To-Do:
- Manual re-rates and staff list updates for all playable European leagues, some ratings may be way off as we used an algorithm to perform the initial re-balancing. WE NEED MORE DEDICATED RESEARCHERS!!
- Fill out goalie statistics, the tool we use to pull data from Elite Prospects does not pull the detailed goalie stats so we have to do these manually.
- Continental Cup structure needs to be updated, its been removed for now.
- NHL re-rates
