How Draft Day Works...

STAGE 1

1. Play and earn points.

You play 3 games with 18 minute run time clock. Every game, you’re placed on a new, balanced team. In stage 1, the point system is based individually: a team win is worth 5 points for each player, and every goal or assist is worth 1. Watch the live leaderboard all morning to see your points.

2. Get drafted.

At the end of stage 1 play, you will go into the draft.

STAGE 2

1. The top 8 point getters become captains.

After 3 stage 1 games, the 8 point leaders draft their playoff teams live.

2. Play for the Cup.

An 8-team playoff, with every team guaranteed 3 playoff games. The winning team takes the Draft Day Cup, and the top scorer is crowned Points Champion.

⚡Fast 3v3 cross-ice with 40-second shifts on the horn and without stoppage ~ No checking, and no slap shots. ⚡
