We've just released a hotfix for FHM2, version 2.7.54, to correct two problems with last Friday's update. It fixes a bug with historical trading that resulted in AI-run teams treating all players as if they had just been acquired, preventing them from trading with user-run teams, and an error with the NHL draft order not being set correctly in seasons after the first one.

Your existing savegames will be compatible with the updated game, but any fixes involving the database updates in the update will require a new start to be fully effective, and some of the update's fixes may not retroactively correct certain problems in existing saves.
