    • H2H reserves the right to disqualify any entry that does not meet the eligibility requirements described above, arrives late, is incomplete or has been incorrectly completed, or is not completely legible or audible.

    • To ensure you have the correct selections in place, verify your new lineup when you are presented with a confirmation number.

  7. Leagues. Each entry will be placed into one of four (4) 8-team divisions within a 32-team league. Each league is generally determined in a random manner. Without exception, the same rules and trade deadlines and restrictions bind all teams in a given league.
    • League Assignments. All Basic, Starter, Complete, Unlimited, and Alternative Package teams will be placed in a standard league.
    • Buddy Leagues. You may form your own league or play with friends by sending up to 32 entries in the same envelope for mailed entries, or by joining a private Buddy League group up to 32 teams for internet entries. If less than 32 entries are submitted, the league will be filled with other entries. Entries that are not received in the same envelope or are not entered in the same private group or buddy league on the Internet, may request placement in the same league, but such placement cannot be guaranteed. Buddy leagues/pool registration deadlines are one (1) hour prior to the first pro hockey game scheduled for Wednesday, October 11, 2023.
    • Multiple Teams. In order to keep the leagues as competitive as possible, owners will not be permitted to request to have multiple teams placed in the same league. Depending on league availability at the time of entry, it may not be possible to place all owner teams in separate leagues.
    • League Winners. All league winners for the H2H Regular season and the H2H Playoffs will be determined by cumulative points.
  8. Rosters.
    • Positions. You have been granted an imaginary bank account of $100 Million to manage a roster consisting of: two (2) Centers, two (2) Left Wings, two (2) Right Wings, two (2) Defensemen, one (1) Flex Position, and one (1) Goaltender Staff. The goaltender staff counts as one (1) player.
    • Flex Position. You may select a player only for the position designated by Head2Head Sports, or use the player in the flex position. Goaltender staffs are not eligible for the flex position.
    • Salary Cap. During the H2H Regular Season, no roster may ever exceed the $100 Million salary cap.
    • Limit. You must always have ten (10) players on your roster. You may only choose a player once for your roster - no duplicate players are allowed.
    • Errors. Teams submitted with incorrect or incomplete rosters will not be accepted and may have a temporary roster assigned to them.
  9. Players.
    • Player Salaries. Player salaries will be determined by Head2Head staff based upon past performance and projected performance. In the event that a player is mistakenly listed multiple times, the player will be assigned the lower salary listed.
    • Salary Changes. Twice during H2H Fantasy Hockey, player salary changes will occur. The first change will be at mid-season and the second change occurs after the H2H Regular Season. Salary changes at mid-season will be limited to salary decreases only. After the regular season and for use in the H2H Playoffs, all player salaries will be adjusted (increases and decreases). All Playoff qualifiers will be notified of the salary changes via the website, mobile application, email or U.S. Mail at the conclusion of the regular season.
    • Positions. Player position eligibility and designation is determined by H2H during the pre-season and may be changed any time by H2H before the start of the pro hockey season. H2H Fantasy Hockey participants agree to accept these designations and understand the final position designations may be different than a player's on-ice position after the start of the pro hockey season.
    • Team Changes. If a pro hockey player is traded from one NHL hockey team to another, you will continue to receive points for that player as long as that player remains on your roster.
    • Unlisted Players. Unlisted players may be added at any time prior to the season start or during the season based upon participant request and Head2Head's formula using the projected value for the remainder of the season and past performance. It is the participant's responsibility to review the Player Selections pages or Make Trades player list page for the most recent player list.
  10. H2H Point Scoring System. Each team will be ranked within its Division by wins, and within its league and overall by total points. Your team's total H2H points will be calculated by applying the official H2H scoring system:
    • Offensive Points. For forwards & defensemen, 3 H2H points for a goal, 2 H2H points for an assist, +1 bonus H2H point for a power-play goal, and +2 bonus H2H points for a short-handed goal. A bonus +5 H2H points are added if the player records a hat trick (3 or more goals in a single game).
    • Defensmen Points. For defensemen only, 1 H2H point added or subtracted for each plus/minus point received. Plus/Minus points are not awarded to offensive players and goaltender staff.
    • Goaltender Staff. For goaltender staffs, 5 H2H points earned for a win, 3 bonus H2H points for a shutout, one (-1) H2H point subtracted for each goal allowed, and 1 H2H point earned for every five (5) saves. Any goals, assists, or plus/minus statistics earned by goaltenders do not count.
    • Schedule Changes. Scoring is based only on the games actually completed each H2H period. H2H takes no responsibility for any pro hockey games that are delayed, postponed, or canceled (i.e. strike, lockout, weather, riots). If, for any reason, a player's game is postponed, you will only receive points for that game if you have the player on your roster during the period that the game is officially completed.
    • Injured Player ProtectionSM. Players that are ruled out BEFORE their scheduled game time, irregardless of why they are ruled out, or whose games are canceled or postponed AFTER the weekly trading deadline has passed, may also be awarded H2H points for teams that are optionally protected via H2H's Injured Player ProtectionSM ("IPP") services. Protected players will be awarded 1 point for each affected game, or 2 points per game for goaltenders (excluding goaltender injuries). Players will not be awarded H2H points for games canceled or postponed BEFORE the weekly Internet trading deadline, for games canceled during the pro hockey playoffs, for games rescheduled for later in the scoring period, and for players that aren't ruled out before their scheduled start time. IPP will also only award H2H Points to protected teams that have the affected player (or goaltender staff) on their active roster for the current period.
    • Live Scoring. To the extent that this contest offers or displays live scoring, standings, results, statistics, or other information relating to the contest ("Live Information"), all such Live Information is unofficial and is offered for informational and/or entertainment purposes only.
  11. Head-2-Head (H2H) Period.
    • H2H Regular Season. A H2H Period ("Week") begins every Wednesday and runs through the immediately following Tuesday. The first of twenty-six (26) H2H Periods begins with the first pro hockey game played on Wednesday, October 11, 2023. The final H2H Period and H2H Regular Season end with the last game played on Tuesday, April 16, 2024.
    • Head-To-Head Matchups. Each Period, you will be matched against a different team in your league. If your team's H2H point total for that period is greater than your opponent's, then your team posts a win for that H2H Period. Your team posts a loss if your opponent records more H2H points. Statistics for games that are postponed will be counted in the weeks when the games are actually completed.
    • All-Star Break. Head2Head will take a break from January 31st - February 6th, 2024 for the NHL All-Star Break. Play will resume with the first pro hockey game scheduled on or after Wednesday, February 7, 2024 (Period 17).
    • All dates are subject to change. Statistics for games that are postponed will be counted in the H2H period(s) when the games are actually completed.
  12. Trades. Any or all of your 10 players may be traded each H2H period. A trade consists of dropping one player and picking up another player at the same position (center, left wing, right wing, defenseman or goaltender staff). Plan your trades carefully. Your modified regular season roster will be accepted only if the total team salary after all trades being made at that time does NOT exceed the $100 Million salary cap.
    • To ensure you have the correct roster in place, confirm your new roster when you have completed trading. It is each team owner's responsibility to receive a valid confirmation number. If you exit the website, mobile application, or phone call with a Sports Agent without confirming your roster with a confirmation number, your last confirmed roster will be the roster that is scored. It is your responsibility to record that confirmation number for future verification purposes.
    • The website and mobile application will not allow you to confirm a roster that exceeds the salary cap, or allow you to drop players without picking up replacements. If for any reason H2H experiences technical difficulty with the website, changes to rosters will not be taken until the trading is re-opened.
    • Trades must be made via Internet, phone, fax, mail (Alternative entrants only), or email. Waiting until the deadline to trade could result in rejection of your trades. We recommend that you execute your trades at least 3 hours prior to the trading deadline.
    • To execute trades via phone, fax, mail (Alternative entrants only), or email, the following must be provided: Member Id#, Member Name, Team Name, Name and ID# of player(s) to be dropped from the starting lineup, and Name and ID# of player(s) to be added to the starting lineup. Trades made via phone, fax, or email must be called in or delivered no later than fifteen (15) minutes prior to the trade deadline. H2H's timestamps on email messages, fax transmissions, and phone messages will serve as the official delivery time for trades. Trades that arrive late or are lost, damaged, inaudible, incomplete or incorrect, or result in an invalid roster (exceed the salary cap, contain duplicate or invalid players, attempt to drop or add locked players, etc.), or whose accounts do not contain enough prepaid trades to cover the number of trades to be executed, will be rejected.
    • If you do not have a credit card or PayPal account to purchase trades, you may purchase groups of trades by sending a check or money order to: H2H Fantasy Hockey Trades, c/o Head2Head Sports, 4727 E. Bell Rd., Suite 45-328, Phoenix, AZ 85032. Trades may be purchased in a group of 10 trades for $25, 20 trades for $40, 50 trades for $90 or 100 trades for $175. If you pay by check or money order, you can only make phone or internet trades after your payment has been received and entered into our system. Trade packages are good only for the teams assigned under your Member ID#.
    • Using Full-Team Trade Certificates (Complete and Starter Package teams only). With a Complete Package or Starter Package, you will receive one (1) Full-Team Trade Certificate (FTC). With a Season Pass team entry (Complete Package entries only), you will receive three (3) FTCs. With this Certificate, you will have one phone or online session where you may trade up to all ten of your players at no cost effective for any H2H Period. To make a valid trade, you must complete the process for the Full-Team Trade Certificate online or over the phone and receive a confirmation number. If you do not receive a confirmation number via the internet or over the phone, you do not have a valid use of your Full-Team Trade Certificate.

      All such trades must be submitted according to the rules, restrictions and deadlines designated in the official rules. All trades will be effective for the immediately following H2H Period. Trades made for any other H2H Period will not be allowed or accepted. Your Full-Team Trade Certificate is a single transaction trading session and any subsequent changes to your team must be made via paid trades or another FTC. After you receive a confirmation number while using your Certificate, it will be deemed to be redeemed. We suggest that all players consider keeping their FTCs to use during the H2H playoffs when the playoff player salaries may increase. The Full-Team Trade Certificates are designated for only the team in which they are assigned and are not transferable to other teams or member accounts, and cannot be converted to individual prepaid trades, even if not all ten (10) players were traded at the time of use.
  13. Trade Deadlines. All trades will become effective with the first pro hockey game of the next H2H Period only if your trade(s) is made by the appropriate trading deadline immediately preceding that next H2H Period - note the exception below for early games.

Voided Full-Team Trade Certificates will not be replaced nor applied to a future period.
    • Illegal Lineups. If a team has exceeded the salary cap, does not contain the correct number of position players, contains duplicated players or otherwise has provided an illegal lineup, that team will be disqualified for the scoring period and will score zero (0) points. Illegal lineups that are corrected before the trade deadline for the period will be restored to eligible status and again be eligible to earn H2H points.

    • After the final H2H Period, the three (3) teams from each eight-team division from each league with the best win/loss records will automatically qualify for the H2H playoffs. In addition, four (4) teams from each league that did not automatically qualify for the H2H Playoffs will earn "wildcard" playoff berths. These wildcard teams will be the four teams with the greatest cumulative H2H regular season point totals of all non-automatic playoff qualifiers in their respective leagues. In the event of a tie for the final wildcard position, all tied participants will qualify for the playoffs as a wildcard.
    • All team win/loss records are erased and all playoff qualifiers start with zero points.
