@Meerkat - that's game code, I think its tied to club/league rep and classification.

Can you change the ticket prices of the UK leagues as you have them all set to £10?

@BobbyMaldini - I have no plans to manually set all offensive/defensive roles as the game on a whole does a good enough job and its one less thing I have to worry about, also its subjective. I will update player roles for the NHL, if you have feedback for specific things you can DM me.

have we fixed the offensive and defensive role yet? I remember few players have been "fixed" but theres still thousand still fucked. I still see 20 off role and 3-4 def role for players who are not suppose to be.

@Capitain Cool - thanks!

Thanks for the fantastic work, as always! I found a error in the Parker Kelly's contract. His 825 000$ contract finish this year, and he had signed a extension this summer, 4 years and 1 700 000$ AAV.

@Рудольф Шнапс - I did have this but there was a typo in the arena name, good catch. I'm going to wait to push a patch on this just in case there are other things reported that need fixing.

SKA plays this season on LD St.Petersburg, then returns on SKA Arena.

Absolutely massive update posted to Pivot, will also serve as the initial TBL update of the season due to European start-of-season. Please see the change logs, massive changes for my Swedish friends!

@Jarle.Hyytiainen - Please see the recommended settings, you likely selected too many leagues

@rokusnir - Dani9 makes the logo pack, he is working on updates.

@xECK29x is it possible to insert the Mammoth Logo in the game? I am kind of weird in those zhings iand a dont start a safe with no logo....

Hi.Thanks for update lists . But soon after nhl free agents starts 2026 its crash and game stops. Is is only for me or somebody els?

@A L F R E D - We are working on it now, may not make the next release but it will be playable again this year, also J18 will likely be made playable.

@ДАВАНКОВ - thanks!

@xECK29x - I forgot to add that the KHL has made changes to the regulations, and starting this season, instead of 5 post-game shootout attempts, there will be 3 (like in the NHL).

@xECK29x - This is an actual rule that applies to KHL clubs such as Dinamo Minsk, Barys, and Shanghai Dragons. These clubs have no limit on foreign players in real life. If you want me to help you with Joshua Livo’s skills, I can write them for you based on his stats and gameplay. As for messaging in private, I’ve sent you a friend request on Steam.

Will hockeytvåan be added this year i would love to do a Journey to shl with ifk mariehamn the team form the åland islands

@xECK29x Yep, there is no foreigns limit for foreigns clubs in KHL.

@Blake101678 - I'll DM you, I'm unaware of any changes and I'll see what is technically feasible in EHM.

@ДАВАНКОВ - I am only auto-rating the KHL, I have no dedicated researchers for the league, if you would like to help with this you can DM me. I am unsure if you are asking to make that foreign limit change on those clubs because its a real rule or if you are just asking how to do that in your save? DM me.

Sorry for asking so many questions and giving you so much work, but would it be possible to make it so that there is no limit on foreign players in the KHL for Dinamo Minsk, Shanghai Dragons, and Barys?

@xECK29x - Hello, could you please update the SKA and Torpedo emblems? And also, which is very important, please rework Joshua Leivo’s skills from Traktor, since he’s the top scorer in the KHL but his stats are just terrible. Thank you very much for your effort, I’m really looking forward to the new rosters.

Would love if we could get the new CHL Import rules added in the near future.

Update Sam O¨Reilly (TBL) play also as RW

Not sure if this is a bug but three times in a row I've been fired on November 24 in the second season at a club. The last one I was in second place, payroll under control, job wasn't insecure or anything. Previous two were similar situations. Using the latest update...

Just thought I would share not sure if it has anything to do with the DB

Next Pivot release on 9/12 before the SHL season starts.

@JokeyMokey - thanks for this report, I'll take a look and have it fixed for the next release!

thanks for the great work again pal i know it says about the nhl salary cap but is it the same way to do it for the other leagues? as the UK leagues salary is really low

How can i increase "Average Goals per Game"? Is there any parameter in editor?

In my current save in the Alps Hockey League i noticed a bug right after the regular season. The Pre-Playoffs are drawn before the Master Round and Qualification Round even start, which shouldn’t happen.

Also, the 6th placed team after the regular season is not assigned to either group, so their season ends immediately.

Right structure would be:

Top 5 teams go to the Master Round (+already qualified for playoffs)

Remaining teams (6-13) go to the Qualification Round

After the Qualification Round:
Bottom 2 are eliminated
The rest play Best-of-3 Preliminary Rounds for the last 3 playoff spots

Extra info:
Celje withdrew from the real AHL so there are just 13 teams remaining.
Let me know if you need any more details!

@Airwaves28 - Maybe, you aren't the first to ask and with the updated tooling I can keep them fairly up to date. The problem with the NIHL-1/2 levels however is I don't think they will really be fun to play long term due to the lower reputation of the leagues mainly due to the financials. It's also more of a burden to me to keep updated.

@Рудольф Шнапс - Aware, will be updated in the next update in early September.

Kunlun Red Stars renamed to Shanghai Dragons
https://en.khl.ru/news/2025/08/07/549005.html

They will play at SKA-Arena

Is there any chance you could put all English leagues in? Even if you could set up the league structure & fixtures - I can help with the rest!

DB updated, see change notes

In my game, Gavin McKenna went 2nd overall and is spending the year at Penn State with less than a point per game hahahhaa

LEVIS 李维斯 - Demidov is already an NHL player, maybe you are using an older version of the DB, 150/-10 and Fowler is 100/-20 both are guaranteed NHLers at their floor.

@BobbyMaldini - fix coming this week for that, something went sideways while editing I just have to see if anything else was impacted.

jacob fowler and demidov might need an update same for musty, musty and fowler never seem to develop to nhl players

dont know where to suggest change, they were ok before the new "patch" now 80% of players are 20 offensive role and 3 defencive role. it makes no sense. someone fucked up on edits

Update posted, please see change logs, updates will slow down through the rest of the summer, next update around the end of August unless something major happens.

@bobbyMaldini - He may need a player roll change from All-Around to something else, you are welcome to provide feedback here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iB5yCI91uPiiEAxrSlS1Vs_ZcQHujndLw4piEmP3WLg/edit?usp=sharing

is it normal that almost everyone is 20 offensive role, and 4-5 defencive role, like Jakes Evans who was 20 and 4 lol

You can create players, but you need an external editor. You can find editors at ehmtheblueline.com

@pepe You can not Create a Player

how do i create a player? or edit players?

@Eric, no

does the ECHL need to be selected to send players down from NHL/AHL?

Looks like the ECHL schedule has an issue, if you enabled the ECHL your game will crash at some point in year two, working on a fix. Sorry about that :(

@Mike - One of those is for the fake (generated) players, the other is for coverage of real players. You may be getting that mixed up.

Also I have not heard or seen anything of a Marittimes Junior Hockey League (MJAHL) and QMJHL merger, the QMJHL did change their name from Quebec Major Junior Hockey League to Quebec Maritimes junior Hockey League last season.

Looks like the ECHL schedule has an issue, if you enabled the ECHL your game will crash at some point in year two, working on a fix. Sorry about that :(

it appears there are two generated facepacks for the prospect generator(both have similar 25-26 titles) and im not sure which one is the one that is the right one. im glad the leagues were cleaned up, is there still a maritimes league for instance now that the QMJHL merged with them?
