NHL 2002 for Playstation 2 by EA Sports
Roster Update list by DOAsaturn (philsites@capitalsfan.com)
Version History
V 1.0 - September 28, 2001
V 1.1 - September 28, 2001
V 2.0 - October 1, 2001
V 2.1 - October 7, 2001
The list was created for those who want to personally edit their own rosters,
those who don't have a sharkport or can't find a roster save, or those who
would like to double check their sharkport rosters for errors. You can
certainly use the list for yourself, or other boards/newsgroups and websites,
but please don't give yourself credit. I've already had a lot of help from
people from the gamefaqs boards in compiling this list, and hopefully we can
keep it going until NHL 2003.
V1.0
This is the first version of this list. It includes all the waiver claims
and trades you'll need to do. A few created players are listed too. For
the next version I will include a waiver list which will include players
released from their teams that have yet to be claimed. If you know of any
trades, waiver claims, retired players, or players that should be created,
please e-mail me at philsites@capitalsfan.com. It would be great if you could
also e-mail me the players that have been released for your favorite team,
this would help me a great deal in double checking my records. Also, if your
sending me create-a-player info, try to include as much info as possible
(obviously name and position and team, but also #, height/weight, birth date,
birthplace, years played, and a few comments on his abilities if possible).
V1.1
Sorry, I had to make some quick corrections. First you must create Marty
Brochu for Vancouver (not sign him, he isn;t in the game), Aaron Ward doesn't
need to be signed to the Carolina he is already there. Also, Terreri for
the Isles was released.
V2.0
More created players added. All Free Agents listed. If a create-a-player's
# is #?, that means the player has not been assigned an official number with
the team (most likely because he is in the minors), but will most likely play
for the team later in the year. Keep posted for number updates in the future.
V2.1
More created players added. A few free agent moves and trades added. Check
bottom of lists for each team for the newest addtions to that team.

-sign Sebastien Bordeleau from the Blues
-create Goalie Derek Gustafson (the game will automatically create him after

the other can be put on the Waivers List)
Montreal Canadiens
----

-create Goalie Mathieu Garon (the game will automatically create him after
entering his name)

Alexis, Quebec, average stats in 60s)
-create Goalie Ari Ahonen (#50, 6-2/170, left, 2/6/81, Jyvaskyla, Finland,
average stats in mid 70s with high potential rating)
*NOTE - This creates a 4 goalie situation. For now Ahonen is the official
backup. Henry and Damphousse will both probably see a game or two this year,
you'll have to keep one on waivers though.
-create Goalie Scott Clemmensen (#40, 6-2/185, left, 7/23/77, Des Moines,
Iowa, overall in low 70s)
*NOTE - Now we have 5 goalies here. The situation looks like this. Clemmensen
is the official backup right now. Damphousse has the nod to be the 3rd string
call-up if they need him. Henry and Ahonen will probably play the year out
in the minors, so either don't create them, or put them on the FA List)
New York Islanders
----
-sign Marko Tuomainen from the Kings

entering his name)
-create Goalie Vitali Yeremeyev (the game will automatically create him after
entering his name) - Yeremeyev is on the Kazakhstan team)
-sign Goalie Peter Skudra from Boston/or Waiver list
*NOTE - This gives you 5 NY Rangers goalies. Holmqvist and Yeremeyev should
be on the Waiver list for now, Skudra is the third string goalie.
-create Left Wing Zdeno Ciger (#18, 6-1/190, left, 10/19/69, Martin, Czech,
overall in mid-70s, over 10 years playing)

-create Goalie Dan Blackburn (#80, 6-1/190, left, 5/20/83, Canmore, AB,
overall in mid 70s, high potential rating of 95)
*NOTE - It looks like the official depth chart is going to be Richter, Skudra,
and Holmqvist, but Blackburn is so good he may get a couple games this year
and is the Rangers goalie of the future. You should have Blackburn and
Yeremeyev on the Waiver list and release Guy Hebert too.
-sign Rico Fata from the Flames
Ottawa Senators
----
-sign Steve Martins from the Islanders
-sign Chris Herpenger from the Blackhawks
-create Center Jason Spezza (#?, 6-2/188, right, 6/13/83, Mississauga,

this year.)

4. Of course, I'll keep up with regular NHL transactions
