What players say

Players are split on FHM 11. Some praise its deep stats and historical leagues, calling it the best hockey GM sim available. Others report game-breaking problems: save corruption, frequent crashes, and AI that makes nonsensical trades and roster moves. Many say top draft picks are effectively untradeable, and interactions with media and players feel shallow.
