What isn't based on historical data (and the biggest hinderance to historical play in my view) is durable players getting injured for 4 to 8 months over and over and over and over. I l almost expect now, when I see a 7 month injury in the news feed, to click on the player and see his injury profile half white.
So today I was running 1971-72. First week, Guy Charron 7 months, Ross Lonsberry 4 months. Look at their ratings?
I have no problem when my Mario Lemieux or Peter Forsberg of Bobby Orr have season ending injuries. I know it will happen eventually.
I'm talking about unrealistic injuries. Give a durable player a max 2 weeks, not 8 months. If you say it COULD have happened then I guess Joel Quenneville COULD have scored 80 goals one season. I don't see the difference. They are both historically inaccurate.
Hope this is helpful. Keep up the good work.

There's a lot of factors that goes into a player getting injured, the most important being coaching. Tactics and how players play can greatly affect how they get injured. Durable players can get hurt under some circumstances.
