Haven't reported this earlier, but it has always been there: if you start a historical game on July 1st, to set the rules, your draft list, available for trade, is a few years behind the current date. For example, I set a NHL-WHA merger league of 1977 (as negotiated by the time), and instead of draft rounds of 1978 and beyond available for trade, you got rounds of 1975-77 available. The AI accepts those picks for trade, but that would be kind of cheating.

Oh, and there are way too many long term injuries for players that are not injury prone (that's why I play with commissioner mode, and have to reset injuries at least once per month). I think it needs tweaking.
