I guess a loud minority really can make a difference. Inspiring.
Furthermore, where's the transparency from management on this matter? What was the process like before you arrived at this decision? Why is this being announced literally minutes before teams start playing their games (in some cases even after puck drop)?
This is absolute bush-league for a professional organization with paying customers and I think everyone, regardless of where they stand on this particular matter, expect better than this.
Thanks for writing this feedback @l-Furyan-l - we realize this was not handled to the standard we want to hold ourselves up to. We will be reaching out to Pro and Elite teams to confirm the opinion of each team.

How do we register my new team to pla next cup?
Hi, so sorry to have missed your message. Did you figure it out yet?
Basically, when the sign-up is open for a league or tournament, you can create the team while registering for said league or tournament. -
Hi @zSnYp7z - for some reason your community profile had been removed - perhaps your email wasn't verified within 30 days and it was auto-pruned. Nevertheless, this left your player card unlinked and that's why you were having this issue. I have re-linked your account with your player card and everything should be ok now. 👋

There is registration open for this: https://sportsgamer.gg/leijonat
In that description of the tournament it says it is for both platforms PS5 and Xbox Series S/X but in registration there is only for PS5. So is that only for PS5? And in rules there is only PS5 mentioned.
So is Xbox Series S/X on that tournament? And I am meaning for 1vs1. There is crossplay in 4vs4 so there is Xbox possible but in terms of 1vs1 in online versus if Xbox is on there should be two separate tournaments. As far as I know there is no crossplay in online versus - only HUT 1vs1.
Edit: My mistake, it says there in description that 1vs1 is only for PS5 and 4vs4 is for both. So all clear now.
Yep, you answered your own question, but yep, 1v1 is PS5 only and 4v4 supports both Xbox Series S/X and PS5. The reason being the lack of crossplay support on the Online Versus side.

For some reason it won't pull his Xbox account so we can do stats I get that error message I had use the manual tool too get his stats
I can't say for sure but I assume this is the 6HL, which is an Xbox league, so the site will be looking for a Gamertag.
https://sportsgamer.gg/players/15368
The gamertag on this player card is GetterDunne, so it's missing the 10 at the end. If the user edits in the 10 into the gamertag, I believe it will work as intended.

Generally I would prefer 3-point system because there is a higher reward winning during regular time.
But due to a very unbalanced league where there is very good teams and very bad teams in every bracket/division the 3-point system will make it even more unbalanced and hard for the softcore teams to reach playoffs. The league lacks teams who are good enough to make the series tight.
And tbh I think the league will die soon if Sportsgamer keep making changes where softcore players will stop participate.
Can you elaborate on what you mean the issue is - do you mean it's psychologically tougher to be behind by 6 points after two losses versus being down by 4 points? That's the way I used to look at it. When comparing after the season what the outcomes would have been with both systems the difference is really small, but how a team experiences the situation where they need to get 9 points to get back into the playoff race in the 3p system, versus needing 6 points in the 2p system, is something that is debatable.
I also like the 3-point system and it giving value for pushing for a last-minute winning goal rather than cruising into OT, but I've always wondered about the psychological side of the system.

Hey everyone,
As we gear up for the upcoming NHL 24 season, it's time to revisit the topic of player ability bans that we implemented for NHL 23. In the previous season, we took action based on community feedback and decided to ban several player abilities that were considered overpowered.
However, as we transition into NHL 24, we find ourselves in a different scenario. The game dynamics and balance have evolved, and we don't yet have a clear understanding of how these player abilities will impact gameplay. Given this uncertainty, our initial thought is to refrain from imposing any ability bans for the first season of NHL 24.
We believe it's crucial to gauge the new game's balance and understand how these abilities function in the current context before making any decisions. Therefore, the idea is that the upcoming season will serve as a testing ground. We'll closely monitor gameplay, gather feedback from all of you, and assess whether any Abilities are causing issues or significantly skewing the competitive landscape.
This forum thread is the perfect place to share your thoughts, observations, and experiences from the ECL '23: Winter (and eHSM, SCL, GCL etc.) season, during which we played without these banned traits. Did you notice any significant changes in gameplay? Did the absence of these abilities make the game more balanced and enjoyable for you? We value your input and encourage you to contribute to this discussion.
Ultimately, we want to make informed decisions that enhance the competitive experience while preserving the integrity of the game. So, let's have an open and constructive dialogue about our approach for the first season of NHL 24. Your feedback will play a vital role in shaping our league's future.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

Hey Gamers,
I hope you're all gearing up for an exciting season ahead! As we prepare for another year of thrilling action on the eHockey ice, there's a question keeps popping up from time to time: should the ECL stick with the traditional 2-point system, or should we consider switching to the 3-point system that has gained popularity in recent years? Technically it's also possible to define this at a divisional level, but I'm not convinced that wouldn't cause a whole lot of confusion.
This topic has not only sparked heated debates among hockey fans worldwide, but also here on the forums (exhibit 1, exhibit 2), and it would be good for us as a community, to weigh in on the matter. While some examples have been presented and I personally also believe the point system won't make that big of a difference in the outcome of a season, the point distribution system can still make impact on the dynamics of our league, the perceived competitiveness of teams, and the overall fan experience.
If you're completely unaware of the details, here's a recap:
In the 2-point system, a win earns a team two points, a tie (or overtime/shootout loss) grants one point, and a loss results in zero points. It's straightforward and has been the standard for a long time. On the other hand, the 3-point system introduces an extra point for teams that win in regulation, while still awarding one point for ties and losses in overtime or shootouts. Proponents argue that this system promotes more aggressive play and reduces the frequency of games going to shootouts, making the outcomes more decisive.
But which system do you think suits our league best? Are there benefits to one over the other that we might be overlooking? Let's dive into this discussion, share our insights, and ultimately decide which point system we believe will enhance our league's competitiveness and excitement.
I'm eager to hear your thoughts and engage in a constructive conversation about this matter. A poll may take place later on, but let's start with a good ol' discussion.
So, what's your take? The puck is in your zone – let's discuss!

Hello everyone,
for a couple of weeks now I get a Gateway time-out when I want to open the All Time Stats page. Is it just me?
Thanks for bringing this up @FoxGoalie - it is indeed a problem that we need to look into. Simply put, there is so much data nowadays that the old method of calculating it has proved to be inefficient and it ends up timing out instead of providing you with what you want.
We will look into it, thank you.-
