It's fun, competitive, and unpredictable. No lead is safe and no two games are the same. Anyone can quickly learn how to play, have fun and win. No previous hockey knowledge or experience is needed... but you will need a mix of good luck and strategy to clinch victory.
Big blow-outs, massive comebacks, tight matches, and surprising upsets are all possible. Control what you can and leave the rest up to the hockey gods to decide...

OBJECTIVE
Your mission is to win the Champion’s Cup Trophy Card by having the most Trophy Cards at the end of the game.
OVERVIEW: HOW TO PLAY
Earn Trophy Cards by collecting the most Hockey Stats when you roll dice to score Goals, Assists, Shots, Hits, and more. Avoid rolling Adversity - if you can! Line Demotions, Suspensions, Buy-Outs, and getting Benched can set you back or derail your game.
Defend your Hockey Stats from being stolen by your opponents when you play Game Cards like Turnovers and Back Checks. Or go on the attack and strategically play other Game Cards like Take Aways, Stick Lifts, and Poke Checks to get yourself ahead or push your opponents back.
Players compete for 11 Trophy Cards in total. The player with the most Trophy Cards by the end of the Third Period, earns the Champion's Cup and wins the game!
