Gotham Knights is looking for a Dman & Goalie! So we are looking for a good 2way defender (no matter which d) and also a starting goalie. We can promise a lot of ECL time. After really tight battle in Elite we lost our spot so now we are highly motivated to take our spot back and that's our only goal in PRO. If you think that you can fly with BaTs, msg me here or PSN: ReDMisTi

Everyone understands what you did. You showed remorse only after getting caught. NHL 20 isn't that far off so just do your time and don't make another mistake.

100% playoff team right here

Thanks for the feedback and good write-up @ahonaattori! I do agree that we could go a little higher in game amounts and we'll take that into account once we know the amount of teams that sign up for ECL 8. The reason behind the low amount of games has nothing to do with the amount of work for our staff (while it is a valid point, that there is a ton of games as it is) and I am strongly against tracking any less stats. There are two major reasons behind the decision in the past to have roughly 10 teams per Lite group: The Lite playoffs take a bit longer than in the other divisions and in order to keep the seasons between the divisions roughly in the same ballpark we could not have the regular season go on for much longer. The amount of teams that quit during the season has traditionally been the largest on the Lite level. With the shorter regular season, we've wanted to make sure the regular season doesn't feel like too daunting of a task even for new teams that might have trouble winning any games. Teams quitting during the season not only causes extra work for our staff, but is very unfortunate for the teams that may have their efforts nullified by a deleted team. That being said, perhaps we can get a roughly 24 game regular season instead of the current 18 for Lite. The final size of the groups depends on how many participants we have. The amount of playoff teams is another question we have to tackle every season. There was some criticism above towards almost all (64/75) Lite teams making the playoffs last season - which is understandable. Then again, 32 would - in my opinion - be way too little, considering the amount of teams and the whole ideology behind the Lite division. You could of course have some sort of compromise in between, but it does in fact take the same amount of time to finish the playoffs nevertheless. Ideas are welcome in this category, of course.

Speedy Bros Hockey Looking for one all rounder forward ! Your spot is more like back up player But ecl time is guaranteed Seems like we are going to elite next season (rip NOR)

Before ECL 8 began, I knew we would see a different Rusty Blades for ECL 8. Long-time members left to spread their wings on other teams, while others left for the army. I knew I had a desire to get Rusty to the level where we can truly compete against the best. Not just be the underdog who is able to steal some "surprise" victories. So we set out to find new players. We found some in The_Alpha_Furyan and pentsaa, but we were still looking for that (or those) difference maker(s) at the forward position. As we tried out different players we looked past just the individual skill of the players, because all of the players who came to play were skilled. It is a big factor sure, but we also wanted the "right" players for the team. Team players who never give up. I think we have now found the last two missing pieces of our puzzle. Rusty Blades are proud to announce @MartindalexC and @Foppatofflan will be joining our roster. With a combined point total of 425 throughout the last four ECL Elite seasons, this duo is the NHLGamer community equivalent of Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen... except instead of a Finn and a Canadian, this pairing hails from Sweden and England. They will be true difference-makers as we aim to make the playoffs for the second time in RB team history. Our roster is now complete and reads like this: G Supreex @Supreex D Tanski87 @Tanski87 ktewjh @Janikka The_Alpha_Furyan @The_Alpha_Furyan F Lamsa @Lamsa MartindalexC @MartindalexC Foppatofflan @Foppatofflan pentsaa @pentsaa Migo_Boo (Army) @Migo_boo Thank you for @The_Alpha_Furyan with hisxaid in this post.

Hola Amigos! I would like to raise some conversation about the number of games being played in Lite. What number of games do you think is good? What changes should be done Lite? Don`t take this wrong, you guys here are doing a great work and i get that you have to do the things that you do. And your service must be focused for the best players in the community but i am writing here from Lite teams GM POV. What do Lite players get from this community? 14-18 game days / year + playoffs if you are doing fine. I am sorry but that is really not that much. Better players have double the number of games in ECL + eSM + Summer CUP. Yeah i know every noob can participate in eSM or SummerCup, but really its not that fun to play against elite or half elite teams with hands of wood. Lower level players are now going to play own tournaments like Magic Cup(thanks to @skebazu) or and play with NHL Gamer nemeses like OEHL or stuff like that I guess that is something you don`t want. Ok, just remembered that there is RCL and GCL also ... but nothing for noob Finns Any ways... my point in short is that i`m sure that many Lite teams want more games! Lite teams often need to have bigger roster because teams are new and players are new to competitive scene or even 6vs6 änäri. And this means that you most likely have players who will lose their interest or who are not good enough to learn some stuff... So you need to have backup in your roster to be sure you can finish the tournament. And because of that, you need to do some rotation in you roster.... And i must say, its not easy to rotate if you play just 7 days. What could be done? Does increasing number of games in Lite lead to too much work for league admin? Would it help if game log would not be so precise in Lite? Or if you could somehow give responsibility of correct reporting to players? = no game reporting issues for admins. This could quite easily be done by giving captains rights(fe. if both captains agree) to delete reported stats. That way they can log stats again if they are wrong. Bigger regular season and smaller play-offs would be great. 64 team play-offs are not good.. About 16 team groups and 32 team play-offs would sound good. A bit side of the topic: Should Summer Cup be cut in half for lower and higher level players? Fe. Pro+Elite / others. This would create more games against about same level opponents for Lite level players. Or should Finns and Swedes also have its own league? There is RCL and GCL... Why not FHL (sry if this is trade mark violation @Eisenhugel).

Thx for the reply @Kenu! I agree, that its not optimal, if something like 40 Lite teams don`t get to have playoff experience. I also have a feeling, that because of timing of next season, there is going to be few teams less in Lite than last season. And that will solve the number of playoff teams "problem" by it self. What i don`t agree, is that % of teams that quit the tournament in Lite would be higher when regular season is longer. I think other wise. When you start a tournament with a new team and after first 3-5 game days few of your players realize that the club or ECL concept is not for them...is probably the biggest reason why teams quit during regular season. After this, from the POV of GM it looks veeery hard to find those new players when you have only 1 week left before transfer deadline. If there would be double the time (about 2 week) more teams would find new players and continue their season. But this is just my guess. Would be fun and beneficial to hear more Lite players and GM`s of their opinion on this case. E: Shjjjjjt i have to write more because looks like i didn`t read you post well... Daam you glögi You wrote about those few teams that have hard time to get even that first win in ECL. Sure they often have hard time to finish their seasons, but i am not sure is there any medicine for it. Shorter regular season don`t seem to work. If there would be bigger groups, would it be more likely that there is other or few of these beginner teams in every group? And that way everyone would have some more of those games against easier opponents too? But of course there would be more tougher teams too... it looks like there is no way around this. If this is considered as a big problem maybe there should be some kind of tournament for the new clubs? Where all new teams would have to play against each other and it they can`t finish their games... they would not get Lite license Heh, maybe that is stupid idea...

Would love to see someone showing remorse during or before cheating! Great point! ❤️😝
