Creating a Lineup
On the “Home” screen click the purple button “Edit Lineup” to activate the “Edit Lineup mode”. Once activated, you can select any of the upcoming lineups you’d like from the drop down menu in the top nav.
Simply “drag and drop” any of your players/teams into open slots of the lineup. Be sure to match player/team positions with the appropriate player slots available for each player/team.
You can search for any player/team within your collection that is PLAYING A GAME during that contest period. Please note only players/teams playing in that gameslate will be visible in the item tray.
As you build your lineup, you will see your projection points increase. Projection pts are the sum of all the item averages FPts (Fan Points) achieved during a contest. This provides a good estimate of the performance you could expect that specific lineup will achieve via FPts.
You only need (1) one lineup slot filled in order to save the lineup and successfully submit lineup into contest.
Auto-Fill > auto fills your selected lineup with the best possible lineup from all available/eligible players/teams in your item tray for that specific gameday contest.
Once you are happy with your selection, click the “Save Lineup” button to save that lineup. Your lineup will be automatically entered into that gameday contest, no other action is required by user to submit entry.
You can return and edit your lineup at anytime, up until the contest starts and/or the player/team locks into that position slot in lineup. The slot locks once a player/team has begun its actual NHL® game. Locked players/teams in slots of an in-game match cannot be edited.
Repeat the above for all upcoming lineups to ensure you have completed the required lineups to be eligible to enter into the gameday contests.
* Please note each fan is responsible for checking their lineup to ensure all players they have added to their lineup(s) are actively playing in a NHL game per that gameday. Injury/Active status are not a guarantee

Daily Free Pack
On the “Home” screen (bottom left) you will see your daily pack with a countdown underneath it. You can claim your daily free pack once the countdown has completed and a button will appear with “Claim Pack” on it. Daily Free Pack contents depend on the XP Level you have achieved up to this point in the game. You can check your XP level at anytime by clicking on the “Gem” icon in the top right of the header nav. The higher your XP level, the less wait times before claiming your free pack
My Team > Collection
This section of the app includes all your game items (players/teams) you have collected into your “My collection”. You can view and sort your entire roster. You can filter your collection by item grade, position and team.
Click on any item to zoom in and then swipe to flip item to its backside to view their stats and training progress.
My Team > Training
The object of training is to increase the possible (FPts) players receive per each attribute. For an example; a player that has completed “bronze” training (completed 5 training slots = +1 Training Boost) on “Hits” attribute would receive (2FPts) for every “Hit” recorded in that players performance rather than the base (1FPts) they would have earned had they not trained that player.

Divisions
When you first signup to play NHL Fantasy Stars you are placed in a random group (division) of 20 fans to compete against each other. You play in this division for the entire week, accumulating as many fan points (FPts) as possible across all NHL gamedays that week (typically 7 gamedays per week contest). At the end of the week, the top 3 ranked users (from your group of 20) get promoted to the next Division (level). High performing fans will keep getting promoted week after week, climbing up the ranks to eventually reach the top Division – The top 20 fans of all fans playing the game. Lower performing players may get relegated down divisions. This ensures that all new users who signup to play the game enter the app at the bottom (lowest) division and ultimately compete against other fans of the same skill level before progressing up the ranks.
Whilst divisions are all about performing the best out of your group of 20 users, Global Leaders is a leaderboard of every individual competing that week in NHL Fantasy Stars (regardless of your rank or division). Finish top of the leaderboard at the end of the gameweek to receive coin prize. Coin prizes vary week by week, but check out the “Contest Details” (found on home screen) to see the coin prize payout that week. In most cases the top 2000 users will receive a coin prize.
