changedAn update for for FHM12, version 12.3.37, has just been released. This update adds a number of new user-requested ease-of-use features and a few new options. Additionally, the rosters for playable leagues have been updated as of the beginning of February. The next update, barring any need for hotfix patching in the interim, will come sometime after the NHL trading deadline on March 6. Your existing savegames will be compatible with the updated game, but some issues that are data-dependent may require a new game before you see them.
