REGISTER: Montreal Canadiens 2023 Winter eGames 🎮
The Canadiens announced on Wednesday the opening of registration for their second-annual "Winter eGames" tournament that will run online throughout the month of March. The sports-themed eSports competition is presented by Scotiabank in collaboration with Coke Studio and Mise-O-Jeu and powered by Rival. More than $15,000 in prizes will be up for grabs for gamers on both Xbox and PlayStation consoles, and registration is free and open to all.
This year's slate of games features a new addition in MLB The Show 22 which joins Rocket League, NBA 2K23, FIFA 23 and of course NHL 23 as the tournament's virtual competition grounds.
First-place winners for each game on each eligible console will snag some serious loot, including one pair of Club-level tickets to a 2023-24 Canadiens home game, a
Heritage Collection
kit courtesy of Scotiabank, a $150 Tricolore Sports gift card, and an EA Sports title of choice from the publisher's current catalog. Secondary prizes will also be awarded to runners-up in each bracket, in addition to participation prizes that will be drawn randomly among all those who register and play at least one game.
Cue the "make it rain" emote.
Qualifiers begin March 1 (MLB The Show 22) through March 23 (FIFA 23) and the deadline to register for a tournament is one hour before its start time. The event culminates with the NHL 23 finals on March 26, which will also be streamed live on the team's official Twitch channel,
