How it works
Trade NHL teams like stocks. The standings settle it.
You join a floor with a stack of play tokens, buy shares in teams you think the rest of the floor has wrong, and sell them when you think it's caught up. Whoever grows their stack the most by the end of the season wins.
What sets the price
price = rating × form × crowd
- Rating is what the team is worth on the ice. It's a rating that moves after every real game, up when a team wins and down when it loses, more for an upset than for a favourite doing its job. Every floor shares the same ratings because the games are the same games.
- Form is what the team has been doing lately. A hot streak makes a team a little more expensive to pile into; a cold one puts it on sale. It never moves the price more than a few percent either way.
- Crowd is what your floor thinks. Every share bought on your floor pushes that team's price up a little, and every share sold pushes it down. Being early to a good idea pays; being late to it costs.
Trading
- Tap a team, pick a number of shares, buy or sell. The slip shows the exact total before you commit.
- There is no other trader on the other side and no fee. A buy undone the same day returns exactly what it cost.
- Teams lock while they're playing. You can't buy the Leafs at 3–0 up in the second period.
- Prices move overnight after results are in. Your positions are marked at what selling them would raise, not at the next share's price.
Standings
You're ranked by return: what your stack is worth now, divided by every token you were ever issued. That's why a rebuy can't buy you a placing. Refilling gives you more turns at the market and never a better score.
Joining
- Every floor locks at the first face-off of the season. After that, nobody new can join, because a latecomer would re-price everyone's positions.
- A private floor needs a code from whoever made it. The house floor is open to anyone with an account.
- You can be on as many floors as you like. Each one deals you a fresh stack.
Tokens
Tokens are a game score. They aren't money, can't be bought, and the app keeps no record of anything owed between anyone. Whatever a group of friends does among themselves is theirs, off the floor.
