About Franchise Hockey Manager 3

Franchise Hockey Manager 3 is a hockey management game in which you take charge of a team as its general manager and coach. Choose from 22 leagues around the world, lead a team toward the Stanley Cup or create your own hockey universe. You can also begin with a historical NHL start date as far back as 1931.

Manage your franchise

Handle team finances and the salary cap, hire staff, sign free agents, negotiate contracts, assemble trade packages and draft players. The game includes 2016–17 rosters for its 22 playable leagues, spanning the NHL, North American minor leagues, Canadian major junior leagues and several levels of European hockey. Rosters are based on research and player ratings, and all 30 NHL teams have licensed logos and uniforms.

Career and sandbox modes

In Path to glory, create a general manager and coach with special skills, then begin with a lower-level team and work your way up, or start with a professional club. You gain experience and improve your skills over the years until retirement. Afterward, you can continue in the same game world with a new general manager and coach, or start a new game. This mode streamlines play and information flow and provides more news from your league and the wider game world. Sandbox Mode retains the more free-form experience from the previous game.

International hockey

Take part in major international tournaments, including qualifying stages, and follow full international rankings down to Group III. You can lead non-traditional hockey nations such as Australia, South Korea or China.

Tactics and player development

Choose from preset tactics to build your team’s system, then assign players roles that fit it. Games play out as tactical contests between coaches, with each trying to gain and maintain an advantage while getting the most from their players. The revised development process adds more variation and makes player evaluation less certain.

Injuries and scouting

Injuries arise from events during games and reflect the activity involved; fights, for example, are more likely to cause broken noses than sprained ankles. Players have durability ratings for different body parts, and serious injuries can leave them more vulnerable to similar injuries later in their careers. Leagues also have central scouting organizations to support your scouting and drafting.

Other features

The game includes 50 achievements, available in both Steam and non-Steam versions. It also features an improved interface and AI, expanded news articles, more logical penalty calls, a game rating system with offensive and defensive scores, more varied star ratings within leagues, and a more detailed coaching model.
