Individual Player Career Stats Page - Don't seperate Pro from Minors/Juniors

OOTP does this and so does hockeyreference.com and i can't stand it. It's one thing for the ability to filter one league in a players career stats page, but by default i like to view all junior, minor, NHL etc stats all together clearly showing if a player was demoted or not. Otherwise i have to look back and forth and think to much...and i for one don't like to think. Ever.

It's just much easier to follow the path of a player. There's no need to confuse things...

This is something i hope FHM does "right" as it's quite important to me.

EDIT: also things like the game counting the number of awards that player have won, all stars (being seperated for each league unlike it does properly in ootp), number of championships won. All these things make the game much more enjoyable and all add to the fun. Otherwise i'm continually going through players bios and counting manually and that just isn't fun.

I completely agree. As a UX designer myself, the additional click is unnecessary. You have a good suggestion.. I personally would like to see it also include International tournament results in the same calendar year for WJC or Olympics. Playoffs make sense that this would segmented out. Perhaps like tsn.ca player page underneath the regular season information.

I'm with you. I'd like to see something similar to the NHL.com stats shown, perhaps with "NHL Totals" being replaced with "[current/most recent league] Totals." Of course, I'd like if there there could be a drop-down menu to isolate stats for a particular league (and maybe even team). I do also like the recent stats and current rankings displayed.

I've mentioned it before but i will again, i like how hockey reference bolds the number if they led the league in that area. Including the "SC" for Stanley Cup won in that column for that year would be ideal too.

I've also mentioned to include the letter C for captain or A for alternate in the stats pages too if it can fit. I might be in the minority here but i truely believe that it belongs there as well as in the players achievements/bio.

One of the things that ootp does a poor job makeing use of empty space. Most people maximize the resolution on their monitors and because of that have alot of empty space on the screen. Hopefully FHM can take advantage of some of that space for adding more columns for viewing different areas like stats.
