Hey NHL Gamers, the ECL 5 sign-up period ended yesterday, and we are very proud of the fact that a total of 98 teams will be participating in the first season taking place on NHL 18! This is up 24% from the 79 teams that signed up for ECL 4 - a truly amazing growth. Without further ado, let's look at the final division structure. ECL 5 Elite - All teams 15 teams confirmed their participation for ECL 5: Written In The Stars Northern Ascendancy (previously Unknown) Kattiautomaatti Sjukstugan SJK eSports (previously Laser HT) Silver Sword Griffins Carlsberg HC Aapon Taikasauva Dynasty Northern Stars Nordic Nightmare MUKIMIEHET Synergy Nordic Lightning TIKI TALK Due to the fact that Limitless were folding, one spot in the Elite division had to be filled. To make this decision, League Administration was looking for the most successful ECL 4 Pro team that wasn't promoted to the Elite division by regular means. Round 2 of the ECL 4 Pro playoffs featured 4 possible contenders: White Trash (4 PO wins / 1.18 reg. season PPG) Shameful Knights (5 PO wins / 1.43 reg. season PPG) Unlucky Boys HC (6 PO wins / 1.5 reg. season PPG) Rusty Blades (7 PO wins / 1.54 reg. season PPG) Based on these numbers, League Administration offered the 16th ECL 5 Elite spot to Rusty Blades. The invitation was accepted by the team's captains. ECL 5 Pro - All teams 23 teams (excluding Rusty Blades, which were moved to ECL Elite) confirmed their participation for ECL 5: Alliance HT Baltic Sea Eagles DEAD END KINGS SIKA Inter Iceland J P T J Bellizzi Nordic Stars Shameful Knights Lavetten Gotham Knights (previously Refuse To Lose) Pata Hellalla Hawks Hockey Club White Trash Speedy Bros Hockey (previously Finnish Roosters) Evolution (previously Nocturnal Hunters) Bare Knuckles Hockey Sypperstaars (previously Rynnäkköviikset) Free From Rodents Unlucky Boys HC AK 47 Nemesis Murohoki This means a total of 9 spots had to be filled with ECL Lite sign-ups. As ECL 4 Lite quarter-finalists, these three teams were prioritized and moved to ECL 5 Pro: EN HUND Banterfield Battalion Black Panther Party (previously HC Ancient Warriors) For the 6 remaining spots, we were looking at all the remaining ECL Pro applications from these 14 teams: Red Machine The Beagle Boys Soldiers of Odens God Tier Clowns on Ice GHETTO FIREBIRDS THE UNITED KNIGHTS Dirty Animals Slapshot Club Germany Squirt Hockey Face Wash Hockey Falun Coal Miners Phantoms HC Company of Geeks To ensure a competitive and sustainable Pro division, League Administration not only looked at in-game leaderboards and records, but also considered EASHL history as well as notable achievements, recent games and ECL experience (games played, points, wins etc.). At the end of our evaluation, these 6 teams were considered suitable and are moved to ECL 5 Pro: God Tier Clowns on Ice GHETTO FIREBIRDS THE UNITED KNIGHTS Squirt Hockey Falun Coal Miners ECL 5 Pro - Final groups ECL Pro will be played in 2 groups with 16 teams each. With 2 games against each opponent, this results in a 30 game regular season in which the top 8 teams out of each group will go to the playoffs (16 teams total). To determine the final groups, 10 pre-seeded teams were randomly assigned to the 2 groups. Afterwards, the remaining 22 teams were assigned to the groups. Here is the result: Group 1 AK 47 Alliance HT Bare Knuckles Hockey Black Panther Party Evolution Falun Coal Miners God Tier Gotham Knights Hawks Hockey Club Inter Iceland Lavetten Murohoki Nemesis SIKA Squirt Hockey White Trash Group 2 Baltic Sea Eagles Banterfield Battalion Bellizzi Clowns on Ice DEAD END KINGS EN HUND Free From Rodents GHETTO FIREBIRDS J P T J Nordic Stars Pata Hellalla Shameful Knights Speedy Bros Hockey Sypperstaars THE UNITED KNIGHTS Unlucky Boys HC ECL 5 Lite - All teams The remaining 50 teams will be participating in ECL 5 Lite: Elämäm Kiekko The Beagle Boys iNF4M0US Pohjoista Voimaa Terrific Tigers HC Aurinko Ice Phoenix Rising Phantoms HC EV Duisburg Papat Nordic Nosebleed Company of Geeks Red Machine Soldiers of Odens Lucky Strike Freddie Mercury Institute Puck Panthers Nottingham Chiefs Rukoilevat Hinkkaajat Nordic Eagles Try Another Hole SGWEER United Rusty Bulls Finnish Hockey Legends Raging Monkeys Nearbird Fighters Mentula SKA Dirty Animals Slapshot Club Germany Squad Vilttiketju Deadly Phantoms HC Almost Famous Bucketeers DarrasStars Cold Turkeys Rasend Krokodil Face Wash Hockey Kouvola Screaming Eagles NuggetZ South Sweden Panthers Roistot Hc Nappiaivot KulmalaHengaus Donec Reges Phantoms HC Penalty Box Burns Beardy Bastards RAKETTIPUTKET Breakers Of The Bone PUNANEN REHTORI ECL 5 Lite - Final groups ECL Lite will be played in 5 groups with 10 teams each. With 2 games against each opponent, this results in an 18 game regular season in which the top 6 teams out of each group, as well as the two best 7th ranked teams out of all groups will go to the playoffs (32 teams total). To determine the final groups, 15 pre-seeded teams were randomly assigned to the 5 groups. Afterwards, the remaining 35 teams were assigned to the groups.

Any updates will be conveniently listed at the very top of the ruleset. Make sure to check out if anything changed once in a while. League Administration members All league related decisions will be made by League Administration. To open up a case, create a new question in the "Contact League Administration" helpdesk: https://nhlgamer.com/community/forum/27-contact-league-administration/ Please note: Teams are expected to solve issues on their own before contacting League Administration - the rules include lots of guidance for different issues.

That's inaccurate. As per rules, the default owner of the team is its captain. In this case - FIN_Potilas. During the off-season nobody challenged that and as such he retained the ownership and full control over the said team. A captain doesn't need full support from his assistants in order to make decisions regarding his team (e.g. name change). Rynnäkköviikset > Sypperstaars is considered to be a name change and as such the team kept its spot in the Pro division.3 points

The Falun Coal Miners return for a fifth straight season of ECL, making the team one of less than 15 (!) teams to play in all ECL seasons thus far. As the Miners return we do so with a lot of familiar faces, a few new ones and most noticeably - a new logo, courtesy of NHLGamer logo master @cHIIMEERa: -------------------- CoalMinersTV -------------------- FalunCoalMiners --------------------

What a joke if Sypperstaars is going to Pro as a franchise of Rynnäkköviikset. The rules say that 2 GM:s have to continue new franchise to get their spot and Sypperstaars have only 1 Rynnäkköviikset GM and only 1 other Rynnäkklviikset player. At least 2 other teams have more Rynnäkköviikset players than Sypperstaars. That is unbelieveable try to circumvent the rules.1 point

With our Roster finalized and ready for ECL 5, the time has come to release links to FCM social media a.k.a. where we post weird stuff that you can comment on... or ignore. Most likely ignore. But hopefully comment on! We only (lol) have two channels and plan to keep it that way for the forseeable future (too much maintenance!). We are rocking a Twitch channel where we will be broadcasting most of our games in ECL 5. Important to note is that we will NOT be broadcasting games using the goaltender Be A Pro-angle. Shame on you streamers who use it... shame on you. FCM on Twitch: CoalMinersTV We also just recently set up a Facebook page where our content will be more geared towards posting lineups, scores, game reviews, gameplay videos and all the other Facebook stuff that sounds good to say but usually ends up being just memes. So yeah, we will be posting memes and other stuff. FCM on Facebook: FalunCoalMiners See you there Gamers, welcome to the Mine

Finally we've reached the last part of our roster announcement; our brand-new Coal Miners. While recruiting players to your team, the importance of aquiring players that are a "good fit" for the teams style of play cannot be overstated. Unfortunately for the Coal Miners, we haven't quite figured out what our style of play is yet... so when recruiting players we had to do it the old-fashioned way: with the false promise of a lofty salary further down the line Here are the two insanely talented players we managed to lure to our squad using this devious tactic: Free Agency Signings @pentsaa (Player profile) Jersey #: 58 ECL season, FCM: 1st Career stats, ECL: 19 GP, 8 G, 20 A, 28 P, +31 Player type: Two-way defender/forward Information: Fresh off an eye-opening performance in the Summer Cup for eventual finalist 50 Shades of Blades, this young Finn probably had plenty of offers to choose from ahead of ECL 5. His soft hands on the ice and great mind for the game isn't even the greatest thing about this this defender/forward hybrid, its that he can curse at the rest of the team both in his native Finnish and Swedish! All kidding aside, pentsaa is poised for a breakout season and if his history with the Finnish Roosters and performance in the Summer Cup is any indication, he will make for an explosive addition to The Mine. Just, you know, hopefully not too explosive. Mines collapse. @minokin (Player profile) Jersey #: 15 ECL season, FCM: 1st Career stats, ECL: 58 GP, 12 G, 44 A, 56 P, -83 Player type: Two-way defender/forward, Butterfly goaltender Information: This veteran ECL:er brings a wealth of experience, poise and calm to a roster that seems better prepared than it ever has been for ECL competition. A match made in heaven it would seem and sometimes, things are just that - exactly what they seem. Outside of dazzling plays on the ice and solid defending, "mino" has the mind and voice of a storyteller. What might begin as a harmless story in a PSN party will easily transition into a riveting drama where axe-murdering women and car racing hockey players are front and center. Welcome to the Falun Coal Miners guys We hope you won't be running for the exists in a state of absolute panic until at least half the season is over! NEXT UP, Links to FCM social media!1 point

Next up are The Prospects. While "prospects" is generally used as a term for young, up-and-coming players in real life hockey, the Falun Coal Miners version of virtual hockey "prospects" combines the traditional hockey concept with that of outlaw motorcycle gangs. Strange you say? Not so! Wikipedia has the following to say on prospects: "Some "biker" clubs employ a process whereby members must pass several stages such as "friend of the club", "hang-around", and "prospect", on their way to becoming full-patch members. In these clubs, some amount of hazing may occur during the early stages ranging from the mandatory performance of menial labor tasks for full patch members to sophomoric pranks, and, in rare cases with some outlaw motorcycle clubs, acts of violence" While we do not plan on forcing our dear prospects into performing any acts of violence, they might have to clean the locker room bathrooms and collect all the pucks after practice from time to time. Without further ado, here they are: Prospects @Sawardo (No player profile) Jersey #: 7 ECL season, FCM: 1st Career stats, FCM: N/A Player type: Two-way defender/forward Information: Imported from the TPS regions of Åbo, Finland, the skill of this 25-year old Finn was first discovered by Head Scout @LastMandalorian through the very inofficial VOCL (Viaplay Office Couch League). With a booming slapshot as his main weapon, this natural defenseman has signed a PTO (professional tryout contract) with FCM to "watch and learn" during his first ECL season. Has significant EASHL experience stretching back to 2010, but is completely untested in 6v6 tournament play. Counts Henrik Tallinder as his favorite player due to his dominating run as an assistant captain for TPS. @R00tster89 (Player profile) Jersey #: 89 (previously wore 15 but with a new Free Agency signing coming in, gracefully relinquished the number) ECL season, FCM: 3rd Career stats, FCM: 16 GP, 11 G, 12 A, 23 P, +4 Player type: Sniper Information: Arguably the most natural virtual hockey sniper in the entire Södertälje area, R00tster joins the Coal Miners for his third season as a prospect. Mainly known amongst his teammates for two things: playing with a left-handed stick on the left wing and being one of the only ECL players ever to use the "Sniper" player type (the small one). While still counted as a prospect, R00tster is not without experience as he has been playing EASHL with the FCM captaincy brothers since NHL 2012. Will probably not get alot of ice time in ECL due to more important obligations in life BUT will shoot the puck when you least expect it. NEXT UP, The Free Agency Signings1 point

To mix things up a little bit, the roster presentation for the Coal Miners will happen in three steps... but not the three steps you think While it is custom to introduce goaltenders, defenders and forwards separately, we decided to do things a little bit differently this time. Therefore, the three steps of our FCM player presentations will be called "The Prospects", "The Free Agency Signings" and "The Original Six". First out among these three categories are The Original Six; the six skaters who were there when the Falun Coal Miners first sprung into action in ECL 1. GOALTENDER @Onecorner95 (Player profile) Jersey #: 2 ECL season, FCM: 5th Career stats, FCM: 66 GP, 32 W, 28 L, 6 OTL, 76.36%, 2.87 GAA, 4 Shutouts Player type: Butterfly goaltender Information: The backbone of FCM for most of his career, this young goaltender has already amassed plenty of ECL experience and will be looking to have his best season yet statistically. Rock solid positioning, positive spirit and insane enthusiasm for big hits are among onecorner95s biggest strengths as a player. Probably the only Coal Miner who would know how to handle an actual pick axe! DEFENDERS @The_Alpha_Furyan [Captain] (Player profile) Jersey #: 77 ECL season, FCM: 4th Career stats, FCM: 76 GP, 34 G, 75 A, 109 P, -20 Player type: Puck Moving Defenseman Information: Team captain for 4 out of 5 seasons. Returns to FCM home arena "The Mine" after sessions in Sjukstugan and Dynasty. Dedicated to bring back the offensive blueline turnovers that FCM was sorely lacking last season @Meeertz [Assistant Captain] (Player profile) Jersey #: 14 ECL season, FCM: 5th Career stats, FCM: 73 GP, 10 G, 42 A, 52 P, -12 Player type: Two-Way Defenseman Information: Took over captaincy duties while brothers The_Alpha_Furyan and LastMandalorian set out on their Pokémon-catching adventures last season. Did an admirable job of keeping the ship afloat and almost managed to get FCM past their most famous nemesis: the 1st round of the ECL playoffs. As a player, Meeertz is a true two-way defender with a breakout pass to rival that of Hall of Fame defender Tom Linder. FORWARDS @PatzyDrake (Player profile) Jersey #: 54 ECL season, FCM: 5th Career stats, FCM: 87 GP, 96 G, 80 A, 176 P, -10 Player type: Powerforward Information: FCM team leader in every statistical category except Plus/Minus where The_Alpha_Furyan holds a comfortable (and embarrassing) -20 lead, PatzyDrake identifies as a pure goal scorer. He scores. A lot. If you know what I mean This hulking LW will undoubtedly hit goal #100 in an FCM jersey this season and if he puts his mind to it, quite possibly goal #200 too. @LastMandalorian [Assistant Captain] (Player profile) Jersey #: 17 ECL season, FCM: 4th Career stats, FCM: 48 GP, 23 G, 34 A, 57 P, -19 Player type: Two-Way Dangler Information: Flip-flops his preferences for player position more than Donald Trump on Twitter but seems to have decided to leave goaltender behind and make the Center position his own for the forseeable future. The Last of the Mandalorians models his game after Japanse wunderkid Aito Iguchi and goes to his happy place when the puck is on his stick gliding through the neutral zone. @iscojr94 (Player profile) Jersey #: 90 ECL season, FCM: 5th Career stats, FCM: 80 GP, 45 G, 92 A, 137 P, -5 Player type: Playmaker Information: Whenever FCM goes out clubbing after ECL victories (which, admittedly, is a quite rare occurence) iscojr94 is the squads only hope of getting into the VIP area. As smooth and elegant on the ice as he is in real life, this puck-saucing RW has found tremendous chemistry playing with Mandalorian and Drake. Look for Isco to score more points than he ever has before if his tiny playmaker can keep dodging hits from monstrous defenders. NEXT UP, The Prospects1 point
