Nail Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 How does retirement work in this league? Like does the computer just pick an age to make people retire or does is pick random people? Like I know Selanne won't play another season in real life but I want to know how it goes here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*VaNcOuVeRCaNuCkS* Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 I will create a poll regarding retirement and see what every other GM thinks Edit: scratch this I don't know how to make a poll with this new layout I will make an Announcement shortly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*VaNcOuVeRCaNuCkS* Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 ANNOUNCEMENT I wanted to create a poll but I wasn't able to, anyways Do you guys want players to retire in this game?? If the majority decide yes then we will have to come up with a way to implement this At what age? If there performance starts to decline? Basically the important factor is when will guys retire Let me know what you think either by the thread or PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazmanian Devil Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I would like retirements to be implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nail Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 How bout the only players that will retire will be pending free agents? This way, no team gets stripped of a player that is under contract for them. This year, we could retire Selanne and some others based on age Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InSoM- Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Perhaps my original simming idea would work for this? Sim a season in BeaGM mode and post the retirements that the game automatically generates at the end of the year, this way there isn't a specific set time, its sort of a diceroll with a simmed season.

Nail Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 So does this mean you want players to retire or no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Rodgers Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I would prefer retirements, but I think when a player reaches 39 or 40, the player should play, then play the next season, and if the stats drop by quite a bit, they should retire. But if they do quite well then they can stay for a bit longer. Then they have to retire maybe 43 or at the complete latest 44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WebersBeard Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I think players should retire when they are in their late 30's to early 40's and no one resigns them after their contract runs out. Because at some point their overall would have decreased so much that no one wants to sign them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InSoM- Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I dont think its fair for there to be any set system for retirement. Why would Selanne retire in Dallas with the season he is having? His overall shouldn't decrease either. There are some players in the league that have been "immune" to age, or at least resistant to it, Lidstrom, Selanne, Roloson, Thomas, Chara, Pronger to name a few I've been meaning to bring this up for awhile, but I just don't feel its fair to drop the older players ratings based on age alone, there are too many guys that have been good well into old age and don't deserve a ratings drop; perhaps just their physical ratings, things like Strength Speed & Endurance? another example is Ray Whitney; the guy seems to go on forever.
