Player not eligilbe for world championship due to league suspension

Hi,

I am currently quite some seasons into my HC Bolzano (EBEL) campaign and also coach the Italian national team. Now I have come up a strange problem before the world championships. Forward Max Christelloni got suspended for some DEL games. However, I am now not able to put him in the lineup for the national team. Whenever I try, the game tells me that I can not play him because he is injured. Obviously, he is not injured, but only suspnded for DEL league games. Any way I can make sure he can play the world championships? I mean, a league suspension should not carry over to national team games.

Also noticed another bug in the EBEL standings: The "qualification round" is on the left side of the menu and the "pick round" on the right side. Also, the sixth seeded team from qualification round shows up in the pick round standings (the game processes it correctly though, only shows is in the wrong place).

I would appreciate if you could take a look at my save. I uploaded it as "Italia.lg.zip"

Unfortunately, that's the way suspensions work at the moment - they apply globally to all leagues, including international play; it's a necessary side-effect of the way we had to enable suspensions. (If you really want to clear the suspension, though, you can do that in commissioner mode by retiring and unretiring the player from his edit screen, but you'll have to re-create his contract details after unretiring him.)

I'll see if the EBEL playoff layout can be improved a bit, I think the change from 12 to 11 teams may have broken something in the formatting.
