We're in for a historic weekend at Assembly Winter 2023 with two high stakes Finals series, and are very excited for all of you to join us for the action!
On February 25th, NHL esports history will be made, as for the first time ever, a North American team will be going head-to-head with an European team in a competitive live setting. The stakes couldn’t be any higher, since in addition to the inaugural World Finals Championship title, there’s also a hefty 6000 € prize pool on the table. Combined with winnings earned in the continental leagues for each Finalist, that means a total of 14 000€ in winnings shared between the two teams.
“The World Finals have been a dream of ours for several years already and it’s been a great challenge to make this happen. We’re glad to finally make it happen and etch our names into the NHL esports history books.” - Kenneth @Kenu Lehtinen, SportsGamer COO
The NHL 23 World Finals is a historic event in NHL 6v6 esports, and the buildup has been going on throughout the winter. The two teams competing at the big stage consist of the Champions of their respective continental leagues, and while the NACL Champion Entourage have made their way to Finland and are currently plotting their winning strategies, there's still a massive ECL Finals series about to go down on Friday night for Tunnel Vision and Frölunda HC. The winner of the ECL Finals will not only claim the throne as European Champion, but also punch their ticket to Saturday's historic World Finals against the aforementioned Entourage.
Of course, you will be able to watch all of the action unfold this weekend either live at Assembly Winter 2023 in Helsinki, Finland, or on our stream over at Twitch.tv/SportsGamerGG.
