    Northern Ascendancy are searching for a centre for the upcoming elite season. The role will be a backup to Anrh17, that said however you will most likely play in atleast 50% of ecl games. 

    If you are interested in said 'backup' role but don't like centre that much, feel free to message me anyway as we can rotate some players around. 

    🎵Got to keep searching and searching... 🎵

  3. A beautifully prepared piece by our own cultivated virtuouso, one that is surely bound to rival even the greats of the literary world...

     - "The mildew is back on the walls..." we should really get that checked out some time...

     

    The puck is dropped, as play begins.

    Each team vying, for hard-earned wins.

    Captains and sticks, synchronously clash,

    The puck comes loose, hordes pursue with dash.

    Well positioned iSvamp, takes control,

    To defend and assist, his duty and goal.

    A crisp pass takes the puck, to the left side,

    Where two giants, suddenly collide.

    For a split moment, there's an eternal mess.

    Possessions rotate, like in a game of chess.

    iSvamp was skating, exceptionally fast,

    The game was ending, a few seconds would last.

    Preparing for the shot, he fell as he slipped,

    Hitting the ice, his front teeth got chipped.

    It looked like he just, forgot how to skate.

    But how is this possible? just turned twenty-eight.

    He looked like a mushroom, wearing red and white,

    Picked up the puck, and began to bite.

    His teammates realized, he forgot to take his pills,

    Which explained his madness,

    and his last year, lack of skills.

    The doctor came out, and realized for sure.

    That a Elite trophy, is the only cure.

    ESHL-projektet lever, om än i ganska avskalat format ;) Med support från svenska communityt och ev. lite samarbete med allas vårt NHLGamer så kanske det kan hända lite grejer! 


    For the NG members who dont speak Swedish:
    Here is the latest video in a project I am a part of for the SHL (Swedish Hockey League). Most of this video is in English!

     

    So where's the tournament? ;)

    Can you get significant benefit playing NHL with gaiming monitor vs. normal full-hd with 200 Hz?

    I'm not sure what you mean.

    Hz rate doesn't matter as myself and others have pointed out. (As long as it's 60, although I don't think monitors are even manufactured below that now)

    As for resolution, having a ps pro will allow nhl to look nicer on a 1080p screen but a 1440p or 4k screen will be needed to get the full, or near full benefit from the system.

    Fat Cats had an elite spot for season 4, so i think it´s pretty fair to them that they start from pro. Also they have many elite level guys(2 ecl 3 winners and 3 Summer cup 2 winners for example) that it would be ridiculous to have them in lite. 

    I mean, if a lite team finished above them in the playoffs then they should have a higher priority than Old Farts if a spot is open in pro.

    If they are 'good enough' to had have an elite spot for ECL 4 then they should have been good enough to clinch promotion through the playoffs anyway. 

    [Edit] Also can we appreciate how painful it is to go look through previous tournaments' playoff stages? Seriously, unless I'm being retarded and missing something plainly obvious, how hard is it to make a playoff tree?

    You relegate new team from nowhere to Pro? wtf? In this case new team just pops out somewhere and tooks place front of best Lite teams nose example... O.o  The rules are a very flexible concept in here. Now you are just making one rule more what you can't hold.

    As you can see. Small core. I rest my case.

    No, if an elite team disbands and reforms they would be placed in pro. And yes they should be, since they are better than the best lite teams, sorry but it's true. If the lite team got promotion, they would get promoted, if not, then you can't complain that an ex-elite team takes a vacancy NOT filled by regular promotion.

    Small core? Dude I have no idea what you're trying to get at? Since the context of my post was that they'd lose their place in the top division by reforming, something that is in the rules right now anyway and won't be affected by the proposed rule change.

    That's good point if we had some money involved. But u are talking about amateur league and I assume that NHLGamer is trying to make somekind of community here (before they make us pay to join leagues etc). If top players can just make new team in every season to fill open spots how it supose to serve anything?

    I'm new here so I can see how small is the core who actually uses power here. They keep the administrators in their mouth. I don't want this to be "Happy place" I wanna just think bigger (Lite or Pro team in Elite playoffs ain't one of my sheet).
     

    What? No, that's not related to this in anyway in regards to the money involvement. The players would lose their spot in the top division though? I don't see your point since they'd be relegated into pro, so then one team from pro would be promoted. 

    Again, what? I will say it certainly feels like there's a mentality of 'yes-men' here but I've said that before. I don't think people are 'bullying' admins or anything like that if I read your message correctly.

    Yes, they would in my example but in my other example they wouldnt necessarily have to just steal that spot right off, they can play team 7 for it and the team from Lite could play team 8 for their spot, Unfortunately there cannot be 16 playoff teams in Elite when it only consists of 16 teams and with the promote/regulation system Elite would have to expand in order for this to work, therefor in my other example if Elite was expanded to like 22 teams or something it could be done with 14 teams from Elite and 1 each from Pro and Lite. You could also have a system where top 7 in Elite goes to the playoffs while the winner from Pro faces off against the winner from Lite and the winner in that matchup plays number 8 in Elite for the final 8th spot. Like I wrote before this can be done in a million ways but what I´ve wanted all along here is just to bring up the fact that I think it should be possible for all teams to win the cup, IN THEORY, if its every gonna happen is not interesting.

    You have to realise however that by increasing elite to 22 teams, all the actual 'good' teams from pro will be there instead of, well, pro. Thereby increasing the skill difference between playoff bound teams in elite and any respective team from pro. Plus you still aren't compensating for the fact that the pro (and lite) team had a much easier time getting to the playoffs than any of the elite teams did.

    Look I get what you're trying to do but as I've said previously, making it so that teams below elite can make it to the 'real' playoffs is just insulting to elite teams that didn't make said playoffs, plus it's completely pointless because it's nulifying the whole point of a division system, to keep teams segregated until they've proven that they can hang with the group higher than them. 

    Finally, I'm just gonna say that it shouldn't be possible during normal league play for every single team to be able to win the 'cup'. If however there was a once a year tournament where there was a proper seeding and round robin / swiss system and all that jazz then sure, but yea, as much as I would like that, it ain't happening because of this random ass division system.

    There are ~47 teams in Elite/Pro and 31 in Lite. I wonder what might be the voting result :P 

      Reveal hidden contents

    66% to YES

    If we make fastlane to Pro it does not expand the community it just closes others.

    Let's take a look at csgo.

    Team that is top 30 in the world decides to join a new org and make a new team -> Event organisers realise they can't throw this new team in the lower divisions because it's a waste of time and will only serve to annoy people -> Ergo they place the new team in invite leagues and things above 'open'.

    Translated, a new team would be able to play in Pro because they're clearly good enough to play in it. Lite should be there for brand spanking new teams that have new players that don't have a proven skill level. 

    "Fastlane" for pro is only there for proven teams and players, not new ones. Plus lite is at the beginner level as others have wrote, such a league is neccessary and is prevalent across many games and e-sports, you want to complain about it, fine, but you can't argue that it'll 'close the community' as that's just plain wrong.

    I agree, they should have "more" access to the Elite Playoffs this is not a pro league, its a community where we like to compete. Again, im not suggestion a huge playoff with alot of teams from lite and pro being matched up with the elite playoff teams, just two spots, one for Pro and one for Lite.

    No offence to them and you are right, they wouldnt win the Elite playoffs and I´ve never claimed that they would but they wouldnt get battered with 4-0 and a goal difference of 44-3, they would maybe lose 4-0 but thats a different story. The top team from Pro would have to face lesser skilled players overall, yes, but they would still have to win the whole thing which would mean that on the way they would have to beat opponents that are as good and in some cases even better than some of the teams from Elite, so they would still deserve it.

    You misunderstand me, I wasn't advocating for pro teams to be able to play in the elite playoffs. Based on your example a pro team would make the playoffs over elite teams, despite it not being clear whether they're even better than the elite team(s) they're replacing, plus they'd have had a much easier path into the playoffs than said elite team(s). Sure this is a 'community' that likes to compete, but there's a difference between being irrational and logical. Elite is called elite for a reason, thusly the elite playoffs is quite literally, the 'elite of the elite', sure you have to actually get promoted to elite before being able to play but that's fine imo. 

    Sure, I get it people want to be inclusive and make this a happy place league where "everyone can win" but come on now, pro teams making the playoffs in place of elite teams is lunacy.
