Potential? Oh, right, I guess I should mention something about that as well. Each player will now have a potential rating, ranging from "bench warmer" to "all-time great". Sadly, there are a lot more players whose career will peak at "bench warmer" than at "all-time great", but we can all dream, right? Potential acts as a soft cap on player skill. When the player's skills reach the maximum their potential will allow, their training will slow down considerably, but will not become zero, so you can still train that favorite player of yours and prove your scouts wrong.All existing players will be given a potential rating of "all-star". This is in the middle of the list of potentials, but puts them in the top 20% of all draftees.
i think that is the thread that turned into a debate on injuries and/or enthusiasm, with kozlodeov (sp?) proving his devil's advocate skills must be nearing legendary. there's really nothing good in there.
i think we're all awaiting confirmation that potential will be visible on players in the TL.
