NHLGamer welcomes you to the Draft ECL (Summer Cup) '16!

Hey NHL Gamers,

ECL Season 2 on PS4 is history, and thanks to your discussion about a Summer Cup we decided to start one last tournament for NHL 16. This time it is not part of our regular ECL series, as we want to refocus on two aspects: Open schedules and a chance to get together.

The Summer Cup is based on the draft idea which was brought up by @vSilenttio and @Billy44205 during the discussion. Let's go into the details:

League details:

Last day to sign up is Wednesday, June 29th.

This time, PLAYERS instead of TEAMS sign up for the tournament.

All signed up players will be seeded into teams with a size of 8 players (if it adds up).

Out of all registrations, NHL Gamer Staff will elect an according number of team captains (if 160 players sign up, 20 teams and 20 captains are needed).

Team captains will be taking part in a live draft event (between July 9th and 10th), picking their roster until all players are seeded.

All games are played 6vs6 using private drop-in games - no exceptions!

There will be default game weeks instead of default game days -> more freedom

The leagues are set to start on the week of July 11th and aimed to be finished in mid-August.

Full rules will be released after registration is over.

In the above thread, create a post and use the following format in the post itself: PSN/XBL Name: xxx Tell us about you: Here you can tell us about your NHL career and mention any accomplishments or specific reasons why you should be considered as a team captain. These comments will also be added to the draft sheet, which will be handed out to all team captains once they were chosen, so they are able to get an impression about your person.



We look forward to seeing you on the ice!
