Unfortunately that means the game is useless from a historical replay perspective. You have way too many players taking roster spots far to early in and displacing players that should still be playing. I would expect this to work exactly like OOTP.
Now the alternative is making absolutely sure that a player like Plante is rated lower then any other Habs goalie in years where he didn't play in the real NHL... as realistically that's how he was rated at the time to get an accurate replay.
