Link to players stats for Dos version: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lak0GSiHA6UKkUIESaYnElAAK62Gbyzj4_c4eMKQTNQ/edit#gid=929815946

Comments are enabled, because of pure mass of data, there have to be some typos, but i did my best, it took me quite a lot time.. I was thinking about code something for it, but im not fan of hex porn and binary data and im sure that brute force solution took less time (thanks to my 3 monitors) and learned big pure nothing about coding but something about old NHL stats and mz eyes and quite red..

With coding or DOS vs. SNES/Genesis stats comparision there would be fewer problems with typos if names of players, from original SNES/Megadrive sheet, which i used as source for these, i saw few of errors here. I fixed most of them but russian names are nightmare there is sometimes Vachaslav, sometime vaichaslav, vaychaslav etc, ui dunno what is right.. Otherwise sheet could be export to *.csv (2 one for players are one go goalies) to it should be quite easy job to work with it and make possible import to game so new adjusted stats made by just some edited copy of this sheet.

All numbers except Calgary seems fine, i dunno if exist some patch, i even searched for my old backup from 96, but Calgary numbers are same, as in retro archives. And in same way all players even with good 92/93 stats in TBL,SJS and OTW have trash stats.

Only other strange numbers are these: 1) Jarrod Skalde NYD prospect - its #7 best player in League, i never heard of him a guess that he should be some good draft pick. He managed 8 point in first 27 game, so some analytic go excited way too much. Same thing is Oleg Petrov Edmonton - #6, but i maybe heard about this one once. All other prospects have reasonable numbers. 2) Andre Faust - as guess because of demonic name has Endurance 390, insted of 90 a guess he has to be importal, as some bug.. He is otherwise good, but not super good (#45 in League).

In PC versions i bit more players, i guess more prostecs, 600 vs 560 in Genesis / Megadrive version and very few is missing (<10) from console version, i guess some not good prospects.

Official EA worst player of league for 92/93 season is:
Kent Paynter - OTW - avg stat value 36 of 100. BTW with this sheet you can easily make team of worst of the worst and share the league files to make some fun or nightmare mode.

Main work is done, but is someone is good with Google sheet there are reports to make, lets see Todo sheet.
