I. Disclaimer of the Legal Kind
This document is intended for the sole use of all ESPN Hockey fans and you know
what - it was written in attempts to reach as many fans as possible so I do not
mind at all if you freely distribute this guide around the internet so as long
as you keep my contact update and the contribution section in tact. This guide
will always be freshly updated at www.gamefaqs.com and soon - hopefully - at my
own website.
I am in no way affliated with the NHL (National Hockey League), the NHL
Player's Association (NHLPA), the players of the NHL, the AHL (American Hockey
League), or any hockey group for that matter. I'm not affliated with Sega or
anyone else involved in the production of this game. I'm just a fan of the
formers who's looking not to get sued because he can't afford a great lawyer
like Matt Murdock or Leonord J. Crabs.
Feel free to contact me on any manner regarding this document.

II. Document History
01.10 - October 10th -
Everything from the offseason should be complete. I haven't really played the
game since NHL2004 came out so I may have missed if some players are in ESPN or
not so here's to working the bugs out.
00.29 - September 29th -
Miroslav Satan ends his hold-out with Buffalo.
Jeff Heerema RW to New York Rangers
Shawn Heins D to New York Rangers
00.28 - September 28th -
Seeing as everyone was bitching at me for the captaincys - I've pretty much
finished it. For all of those who complained about the Pronger/MacInnis
situation here's a big fatty FU because remember I AM in the St Louis area
coupled with the fact that while I accidently did date the last document ahead
by a day, this last update was BEFORE Mac was named captain - it didn't hit
www.gamefaqs.com until the next day or two after. So as far as the last update
was concerned - Pronger was still the captain.
Mike Wilson D to Phoenix from Free Agents (last with New York)
Ken Klee D to Toronto from Free Agents (last with Washington)
00.16 - September 16th -
Anyone willing to help me put together a historic team roster FAQ - please
contact me and let's work together here to get all the rosters correct.
Changed up the line combinations to reflect trends in camp as well as new
transactions. Started to work more on the captaincy. CAP work is starting as
well - waiting for camp to become more clear.

Release PAUL MANNING D from Columbus. He's playing for Frankfurt DEL
PAVEL BURE RW may have to retire. Be warned.
TOMI KOIVISTO D is in STL camp fighting for a contract so put him back on.
00.11 - September 11th - A lot fixe just look around.
00.10 - September 10th - Most of the missing transactions are put into the
document. Some still maybe missing, give me a couple days.
00.08 - September 8th - Ducks named Steve Rucchin captain, Sergei Fedorov and
Keith Carney as assistants.
00.05 - September 5th - Started the document in order to get going before the
game hits the shelves. Finished most of the sections but I still need the game
for the full needed transactions. Once the game is out, expect the full update
later that night on September 10th.

III. Slight Introduction
After last year's try at a transaction document for NHL2003 (by Ea) and NHL2k3
(by Sega) and getting in way over my head on some things - this year, I'm ready
and I know how to do it right this time around so without further ado, lets get
it on.
This document will NOT be about how to play ESPN Hockey or the controls.
That's what the instruction manual is for and if you don't have that, that's
what just randomly pushing buttons is for. This document will ONLY concentrate
on the roster aspect of the game and NOTHING else. If you ever played a video
sports game straight from the box you may have noticed that the rosters aren't
usually right up to date as they should be. After all they need to set
deadlines before the game gets shipped and that's point of no return right
there. Or you've got a guy that's in charge of the rosters that can't keep
track of all the fringe players out there - and who can blame him, it's a lot
of work - and he misses things. That's what I'm here for. This document fixes
everything that happens after ESPN Hockey hits the shelves.
Now for a little Q and A PLEASE DO READ
Q1 : When do you upate this FAQ?
A1 : At the end of each week I'm hoping. And for people who remember my FAQs
last year - I WILL be prepping for the deadline day so it won't hit me right in
the middle of everything like it did last year.
Q2 : Where can I contact you?
A2 : You can email me exclusively at
[email protected] - that's the one
I check the most. You can also get a hold of me on AIM at Dags91. I don't mind
talking to most people just don't be rude. And if I don't answer after a couple
minutes, I'm probably away and forgot to put up a message. I'm not trying to
snub you, just send me an email in that case.
Q3 : Where can I get the latest updates?
A3 : www.gamefaqs.com will always be suppplied with the latest copy but it
takes a while to be posted. For the newest copy of the guide go to
http://www.theanecs.com/ESPNhockey_FAQ.txt
Q4 : Have you done any other FAQs?
A4 : Last year I did this same document for NHL2k3 and NHL2003. This year I
have ESPN Hockey and NHL2004 coming.
Q5 : You have so-and-so on the wrong team, you have so-and-so with the wrong
number, you have so-and-so under the wrong whatever - ect.
A5 : That's not much of a question but chances are I probably know about it
already and haven't gotten around to fixing it. I don't miss too many
transactions so if you think you see one that I missed, please first check the
date this was last updated and when the transaction became offical (I do NOT
deal with rumours to all who tried emailing me that McLaren was an Islander)
before you email me. It became a big pet peeve of mine last year with people
emailing me that I forgot this or that or did you hear about this or Burke may
go to St Louis - When it was either a rumour or the update for a certain
transaction hadn't come out yet. If you do email me about corrections, please
PLEASE try and be polite and if it's a spelling mistake, email that immediately
because I rarely catch those with player names with so many names included in
this document.
