Hi guys,

First: Why when i try to import historical player, some are not possible. Andrei Svechnikov - Cole Caufield - Alexander Romanov and many others each time i type his name in the search box (import a player) it doesnt appear so i cant import these player into my save. What can i do ?

Second: I want to know to be sure the developement rate work like High number like 15 to 20 the player will develop faster or smal number like 1 to 5 will develop faster ?

Third: If the player (Rookie) as sign with your team but doesnt play do he still develop (slower) but still develop or he have to play ?

Thanx for your answer.

Is your game updated to the most recent version (8.5.51)? There was a problem converting names in the historical database to the standard database, but it was fixed in one of the first updates (it may also still be happening if your save was started with one of the early versions.)

The current value of a rating doesn't directly affect the speed of its development until it reaches 20; numbers after 20 will be much slower to develop. However, if the player has a rating that's unusually low compared to the typical profile for his player type (e.g. a defensive defenceman with a low positioning rating) it will increase the chance of that rating increasing relative to his other ratings.

The player's development will be slower if he is left out of the lineup, but he will still improve.
