I been Looking but found none I prefer dropbox

I tried making the GOAT formula only championships but that only shows top 100

Just wondering if anyone has the current 24-25 roster to download? I know there was one pre free agency. This would definitely help me out. I just discovered this game!

Edit: I had a request to also include free agency moves, so here is another version: https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1dkFTIOo3-CcJVhXwtz9PXr1Z0U8mBO4e

So, I took my Current NHL Rosters with Historical Players and Teams file and updated it to after the draft:

1. Draft picks for the first 4 rounds are part of their respective teams - other players might be there but were unselected so now they are free agents.
2. Trades up to current have been made, but free agent signings are still with their original teams.
3. Added Utah, made Arizona inactive.
4. Made some player rating changes.
5. Made sure future draft picks belong to the correct teams
6. Teams have dead cap space too.

And the same is true from the previous version:

1. Up-to-date contracts, player ratings, and historical stats.
2. Given the roster size limitations, most non-roster players are free agents, so any missing players you want can be picked up in free agency.
3. Added 2024 draft prospects and some of the top 2025/2026 prospects.
4. Teams have historical records, playoff brackets, and logos.
5. Retired players of relevance have been added.
6. Awards have been added for retired and current players.
7. Added retired jerseys to all teams.

Enjoy! Let me know if you see any issues!

I think this is the first time I've tried to start a league by creating an expansion franchise for myself, to begin at rock bottom.

But I'm having a problem: the expansion creation screen defaults at stadium capacity of 25000, and I'm not allowed to advance to the draft because the capacity is over 17,500 -- which is unchangeable except via God Mode -- but I can't make that fix on the Manage Teams page because the expansion team hasn't been created yet and doesn't appear there.

Anybody have this happen, or know the workaround?

Updated this teams-only roster file I made a while back with the current teams, logos, uniform colors, and populations as of the 2024-25 NHL season. The populations are the metropolitan statistical areas on Wikipedia. When you make a league, all teams are filled with game generated random players.

Includes: 72 game season Special playoff design (15 teams per conference, limitations prevent two western conf teams from clinching) No Salary Cap No Draft

Adding a national teams mode as a side feature to the regular season mode would be fantastic. I've been playing in my league for over 200 seasons, and it would be fascinating to have national team events or tournaments take place every 2-4 years. Just a suggestion for the developers. Love the platform.

Has anyone created a workaround to achieve this, perhaps using unusual roster exports or similar methods?

I been needing a GOAT formula for my league that I played for 65 seasons but I sadly don't know how to make one so I was wondering if someone had a good GOAT formula? Thank you!

I'm playing out a fictional universe and I've wanted to write a real review of the game but I'm still really getting into it. But I had to shout out how awesome it was to see a draft this bad. It added such an element of intrigue as I tried to offload my draft picks and nobody really gave me much of anything for them since the draft was bad.

I ended up unloading all of my picks within a season, none of them played again. The first pick never saw the ice and after 10 years only 2 all-stars and only 15 total picks ever saw the ice. With the size of my league all 80 draft picks usually play at least one game along with some undrafted players. The years before and after this draft had 13 all-stars.

Stuff like this makes management games a lot of fun.

I honestly think the Goat Lab is just kind of old and outdated. It may be a "me" thing but it's just what I'm thinking.

I’ve been downloading some rosters and I don’t know if it’s an error on my part or something but each teams retired numbers aren’t showing up. Before I decide to retire each teams number manually, I feel like I should check and see if anyone’s already done that so I don’t have to waste a bunch of time. If you have that, could you please let me know? Thanks

Thanks to https://www.reddit.com/u/el3ctricblue/s/TwjcrzKKTP

I think this has been addressed once and it helped, but there are too many 55+ rated players available for league minimum deals that you can sign when the cap is maxed out. You shouldn't be able to sign a guy with 40+ goals for league minimum with no cap room, but it seems to happen a lot. Takes way the strategy of managing the cap when you can fill out your roster with good league minimum players.

Like I said I think this was semi-fixed once, but I really think it should be worked on again. It happens too often.

As always, love the game and thanks for your work.

So, I took my Up-to-date NHL Rosters for 2023-24 Playoffs file and added in history for teams and players:

1. Teams have historical records, playoff brackets, and logos.
   • Navigate to team history to access past year standings and brackets.
2. Retired players of relevance have been added.
   • I didn't bother giving real ratings though since they are already retired...
3. Awards have been added for retired and current players.

And the same is true from the previous version:

1. Up-to-date contracts, player ratings, and historical stats.
2. Given the roster size limitations, most non-roster players are free agents, so any missing players you want can be picked up in free agency.
3. The playoff bracket is reset to the start of playoffs but with the correct matchups.
4. Added 2024 draft prospects and some of the top 2025/2026 prospects.

Enjoy! Let me know if you see any issues!

Any suggestions for starting a league in the 1920s? I'd like to scale back the Salary Cap etc. Will that make the overall contracts smaller? What would be some good inflation settings to slowly build toward the future in a realistic way? Anything else I should think about? Thanks in advance!

Hi, just started my first Zen Gm Hockey league, but no time is passing, is there a way to speed up the time it takes for games to occur? Thanks

I'm the Detroit Muscle coming off of a second round exit. Tampa Bay has the second place in the lottery going into the draft. This is in between playoffs and draft lottery. I also included the draft classes. I'm not sure if I should make the trade because im giving up a top 5 guy in the league but my forwards are aging and declining. I will answer any questions in the comments if it helps.

Just curious what the threshold for retiring jerseys is or if there is a way to change it? I'm a dozen years into a game and non of the AI teams have decided to retire a jersey. Do I need to retire a player for my team's manually?

Hi everyone, my first time posting here just wanted to ask does anyone have(or has been ever created, maybe thinks about creating) a file for national teams to play with. If someone actually has it or is making it. Plz let me know.

Not sure I wanna live in a world where Cole makes them better Makar makes me worse ( made the trade anyways)

First off, I'm so excited to find this game! Brilliant stuff and I'm so excited to start to craft my crazy dream leagues!

One thing I'm trying to do is create a custom nation with custom names and colleges. As I enter the names and colleges into the entry screen I eventually am not able to scroll or see the "save" button. I can tab down to it but I can't see the top of the screen to enter last names. It works for a bit when I zoom out on my browser window. Any ideas on how to navigate these pages to enter a long string of names?

I'm using Firefox Version 126.0

Edit: Added a screen shot of exactly what I'm seeing with no way to scroll down this menu or others like it.

I did this a few years ago and decided to give it a try again.

This roster should be up-to-date with contracts, player ratings, and historical stats. Most non-roster players are free agents given the roster size limitations, so any missing players you want will need to be picked up in free agency.

The playoff bracket is reset to the start of playoffs but with the correct matchups (standings look a bit wonky since ZGMH thinks Detroit should have made the playoffs).

I've also added 2024 draft prospects and some of the top 2025/2026 prospects.

Let me know if you see any glaring issues. Enjoy!

Edit #1: Lines were not set so skaters were playing goal during the playoffs, so that should be fixed now.

Edit #2: Fixed prospect players that had a jersey number = "-1".
