Hockey Legacy Manager 27

Take over a pro hockey franchise and build it season by season. Rebuild an aging roster, give your prospects time to develop, or trade a future pick for the player who could put your team over the top. Years later, see which decisions paid off.

Build your roster

Scout and draft prospects, negotiate contracts, and make trades while staying under the salary cap. Hire your coaching staff, set your lines, and decide when a young player is ready for the pros.

Simulate at your own pace

Follow a game live through play-by-play and stats, or simulate a full season in under a minute. Spend time on the games and decisions that matter to you, then see how your team, your prospects, and the rest of the league evolve over decades.

Choose your era

Start in the modern era or take over a franchise at one of several historical starting points going back to 1917. Play with the salary cap and contract rules of the era, or create your own hockey world by editing teams, players, and leagues and running an expansion draft. Browse and download community-created rosters directly in the game to use in your next career.
