3.    HOW TO REGISTER, EARN POINTS BY COMPLETING QUESTS, REDEEM POINTS FOR ENTRIES, AND ENTER PRIZE DRAWS:

No purchase necessary.

HOW TO REGISTER:

During the Promotion Period, an eligible Entrant may participate by visiting the NHL GameZone at nhl.com/gamezone (the “Website”) or by accessing the NHL GameZone using the free NHL app available via mobile phone or tablet from either the Apple or Google Play Store (the “App”).  Entrants must “Sign in” with an existing NHL Account or, if the Entrant does not yet have an NHL Account, they must register for a free NHL Account by clicking on “Sign Up” and following the instructions to complete and submit the registration form by providing the required information as instructed (“Registration”). Following NHL Account verification, upon user’s first visit to the NHL GameZone, the user will be presented with an “opt-in” page to complete additional information to set up their user profile which includes providing the following: Username, First Name, Last Name, Birth Year, Country, Postal Code, and Favorite NHL Team (Favorite NHL Team includes a prefer not to answer option). A registered NHL Account and complete GameZone Account information is required for valid entry and participation in this Promotion. Only active Registration and GameZone Accounts will earn Points in this Promotion. If Entrant cancels or opts-out of their Registration and/or GameZone Account, any earned Points will be forfeited and no new Points will be earned.  If Entrant elects to opt-in to the Promotion by reinstating their NHL Account and/or their GameZone Account information, the Point total will be reset to zero (0).

Note: For Entrants using a mobile device to participate in any aspect of this Promotion, message and data rates may apply. Check with your wireless service provider for details or any applicable charges. Entrants are solely responsible for any such wireless charges.

Released Parties (as defined in Section 7, below) are not responsible for lost, late, stolen, incomplete, inaccurate, invalid, un-intelligible, garbled, delayed or misdirected Registrations and/or Entries, all of which will be void.

HOW TO EARN POINTS BY COMPLETING QUESTS:

After an Entrant has registered an NHL Account and set up their GameZone Account, an Entrant will automatically start earning Points in the Promotion when they complete a posted challenge activity (each, a “Quest” and collectively, “Quests”) related to an eligible GameZone Game available on the Entrant’s GameZone page. Eligible GameZone Games are available on the Website and/or the App and may be subject to additional terms and conditions. GameZone Games may award separate prizes, which do not impact Points hereunder. You must comply with all terms and conditions of the respective GameZone Game played within the NHL GameZone to earn valid Points associated with that GameZone Game.

The value of Points earned for the completion of each Quest in this Promotion will vary and will be posted with the announcement of each Quest on the Website and the App.

Points that are earned by completing the applicable Quest will automatically be credited to the Entrant’s GameZone Account following completion of the Quest. Once an applicable Quest has been completed by the Entrant, the Quest will be closed and no additional Points for repeating and completing the Quest a subsequent time will be awarded. Sponsor is not responsible for any delay in earned Points appearing in the Entrant’s GameZone Account.

HOW TO REDEEM POINTS FOR ENTRIES

You must earn and have Points available in your GameZone Account before you can redeem any Points for Sweepstakes entries into Prize Draws. Available Points can be used immediately once deposited into the Entrant’s GameZone Account, or they may be saved for use at a later date during the Promotion Period. Each Point earned can be redeemed for one (1) Sweepstakes entry (each, an “Entry” and collectively, the “Entries”). The total number of Points an Entrant can use to redeem for Entries is equivalent to the number of Points the Entrant has available in their GameZone Account at any given time during the Promotion.

As a condition of entry, Entrants will be required to accept the terms and conditions of these Official Rules and to acknowledge compliance with the applicable terms and conditions of the GameZone Games played.  In the event that an Entrant was ineligible to participate in any of the available GameZone Games on their GameZone page, any associated invalid Entries from that Entrant will be void and Entrant will not be eligible to win a prize in the applicable Sweepstakes. All redemptions of Points for Entries are final. Once Points are redeemed for Entries, those Points will be deducted and removed from the Entrant’s GameZone Account and are no longer available for use by the Entrant. Redeemed Points cannot be cancelled or returned. Any unredeemed Points remaining in the Entrant’s GameZone Account will expire at the end of the Promotion. Points have no cash value, are not redeemable for cash and are non-transferable.

HOW TO ENTER PRIZE DRAWS: At their discretion, Entrants may elect to participate in Prize Draws for Sweepstakes prizes by redeeming each Point for one (1) Entry and allocating the desired number of available Entries into any of the open Prize Draws posted on the Website. The number of Entries, if any, to be allocated into each Prize Draw for the chance to win the applicable Sweepstakes prize described for that Prize Draw is dependent on how many Entries the respective Entrant has available to allocate. Once an Entry has been allocated into a Prize Draw, that Entry can no longer be allocated into any subsequent Prize Draws. Any unallocated Entries will remain eligible for placement by Entrant into subsequent Prize Draws scheduled during the remainder of the Promotion Period, if any. Sponsor is not responsible for any Entries that remain unallocated at the end of the Promotion.  Any unallocated Entries associated with the Entrant’s GameZone Account will expire at the end of the Promotion.
  
Limit: No person may register more than once by using different email addresses and/or different NHL Accounts and/or GameZone Accounts.  Proof of submitting an Entry will not be deemed by Sponsor as proof of receipt or entry into the Promotion.  Any attempted form of entry into the Promotion other than as described herein is void and will be disqualified.  Any attempt by an Entrant to use multiple email accounts and/or NHL Accounts and/or GameZone Accounts will result in disqualification.  Any use of robotic, repetitive, automatic, programmed or similar entry methods or agents will void all Entries by that Entrant.  Registrations and/or Entries that are incomplete, late, garbled or corrupted are void and will not be accepted.

The Sponsor reserves the right to carry out any checks necessary to ensure compliance with these Official Rules, including, without limitation, any checks necessary to exclude any Entrant suspected of violating these Official Rules or engaging in any form of abuse or attempted fraud, as the Sponsor determines in its reasonable discretion; provided, however, that Sponsor is not obligated to carry out systematic checks on all Entries to the Promotion.

By participating in the Promotion, the Entrants accept these Official Rules. Participation is further subject to confirmation that the Entrant has taken note of the Sponsor’s Privacy Policy.

4. RANDOM DRAWINGS: One (1) prize winner for each Weekly Sweepstakes (each, a “Weekly Sweepstakes Winner”) and one (1) prize winner for each Monthly Sweepstakes (each, a “Monthly Sweepstakes Winner”) will be selected randomly by computer from amongst all eligible Entries received for the applicable Prize Draw on the first business day following the end of each applicable Weekly or Monthly Sweepstakes, as the case may be.  Each Weekly Sweepstakes Winner and each Monthly Sweepstakes Winner is a “Winner” and together, the “Winners”.

NHL STATS STREAK OFFICIAL RULES

NHL.com users are invited to participate in NHL Stats Streak (the “Game”). There is no purchase necessary to participate, and no prize will be awarded.

The Game is sponsored by NHL Interactive CyberEnterprises, LLC, One Manhattan West, 395 Ninth Avenue, New York, NY 10001, phone number: (212) 789-2000, email: [email protected] (the “Sponsor”) and is administered by STRV s.r.o., Rohanské nábřeží 678/23 River Garden Office II/III (3rd Floor), 186 00 Praha 8-Karlín, Czech Republic (the “Administrator”). These Official Rules govern the conditions for participation in the Game. Participation is free of charge and independent of the purchase of a good or service.

1. ELIGIBILITY: The Game is open only to persons who meet the following criteria (each such eligible entrant, as applicable, a “Player”):

a) are at least the age of majority in their jurisdiction of primary residence as of the date of participation;

b) have an NHL.com account (“NHL Account”);

c) have a user profile/account for the NHL GameZone (“GameZone Account”); and

d) are not an Ineligible Person (defined below).

It is free of charge to register for an NHL Account and no purchase is necessary to participate at any time in the Game.

The following persons are not eligible to participate in the Game (“Ineligible Persons”):

(i) persons that are subject to U.S., EU, UK, or Canadian property-blocking or asset-freezing sanctions;

(ii) persons that are ordinarily resident in any jurisdiction subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions (currently, the Crimea, Donetsk People’s Republic, and Luhansk People’s Republic regions of Ukraine, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and Syria);

(iii) residents of Belarus or Russia;

(iv) residents in any jurisdiction where the Game is otherwise prohibited or restricted by law (in which case, the Game is void); and/or

(v) any person who attempts to register or participate using multiple NHL Accounts and/or GameZone Accounts, multiple email addresses, or any robotic, automated, programmed, or similar entry methods or agents (as further described below).

The Sponsor reserves the right to carry out any checks necessary to ensure compliance with these Official Rules, including, without limitation, any checks necessary to exclude any Player suspected of violating these Official Rules or engaging in any form of abuse or attempted fraud, as the Sponsor determines in its reasonable discretion; provided, however, that Sponsor is not obligated to carry out systematic checks on all Players in the Game.

By participating in the Game, Players accept these Official Rules and Sponsor’s decisions, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Game. Participation is further subject to confirmation that the Player has taken note of the Sponsor’s privacy policy.

2. GAME PERIOD: This Game begins on or about September 29, 2026, and will be available until further notice is posted on the Game Website and the App (as described below) (the “Game Period”). Sponsor may terminate the Game at any time in its reasonable discretion, subject to applicable law.

3. HOW TO REGISTER: During the Game Period, an eligible Player may participate by visiting the “NHL GameZone” site at nhl.com/gamezone (the “Website”) or by accessing the NHL GameZone using the free NHL app available via mobile phone or tablet from either the Apple or Google Play Store (the “App”). Players must “Sign In” with an existing NHL Account or, if the Player does not yet have an NHL Account, they must register for a free NHL Account by clicking “Sign Up” and following the instructions to complete and submit the registration form by providing the required information as instructed (“Registration”). Following NHL Account verification, upon the user’s first visit to the NHL GameZone, the user will be presented with an “opt-in” page to complete additional information to set up their user profile which includes providing the following: Username, First Name, Last Name, Birth Year, Country, Postal Code, and Favorite NHL Team (Favorite NHL Team includes a prefer not to answer option). Complete Registration and complete GameZone Account information is required for valid participation in this Game.

In the event of a dispute as to any Registration, the authorized account holder of the email address used to register or associated with the NHL Account used to participate will be deemed to be the Player. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address.

4. HOW TO PLAY: The Game challenges fans to try to maintain a streak of correct answers by correctly comparing two (2) featured NHL players and determining whether one NHL player has a higher or lower statistic in the category presented compared to the other NHL player before the countdown clock expires. If an answer has been provided before the countdown clock expires and the NHL player selected has the higher statistic (based on current statistics provided by NHL.com), a green check mark will appear indicating the correct selection has been made and play will continue with the next player matchup presented in the category. If the selection is incorrect, a red “X” will appear, and the current streak will come to an end. If an answer has not been provided before the countdown clock expires, the current streak will also come to an end. In either event, the user will be returned to the Lobby screen and provided with the level number they have achieved and the option to play again. Any correct scores will be saved. Administrator’s clock is the official time-keeping device for this Game.

Note: Standard message and data charges may be incurred by using a mobile device to participate in any aspect of this Game. Check with your wireless service provider for details or any applicable charges. Players are solely responsible for any such wireless charges.

The following is a summary of the Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration, Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver, and Choice of Law terms.

All issues are for the arbitrator to decide except the following, which are for a court of competent jurisdiction to decide: (1) issues that are specifically reserved for a court and (2) issues related to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provisions. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party may bring claims (whether in court or in arbitration) against the other only in an individual capacity, and not participate as a plaintiff, claimant, or class member in any class, collective, consolidated, private attorney general, or representative proceeding. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the US Player and NHL waive any right to a jury trial. There are additional procedures for “multiple case filings.” These Official Rules and any Dispute will be governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the state and federal courts of New York County, New York shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any Dispute (except for Disputes brought in small claims court) that are not subject to arbitration or over any action involving the applicability or enforceability of any provisions of these Official Rules (including the arbitration provisions and class action waiver).

Applicable to US Players and Canadian Players:

Except where prohibited by law, and subject to the foregoing, Players agree that: (i) any and all such Disputes shall be resolved individually, without resort to any form of class action, (ii) under no circumstances will Players be permitted to obtain awards for, and Players hereby waive all rights to claim, indirect, punitive, incidental, consequential, and/or any other damages other than actual out-of-pocket expenses, (iii) they waive any and all rights to have damages multiplied or otherwise increased, and (iv) they irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts, as applicable to each such Player, and waive any claim of forum non conveniens or lack of personal jurisdiction that they may have.

Nothing in these Official Rules shall (a) prohibit the Players from bringing a Dispute in the courts of their home jurisdiction; or (b) affect the statutory rights to have any Dispute governed by the law of their home jurisdiction.

All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation, and enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of Players in Sweden, Finland, Germany, and Czechia, and Sponsor in connection with the Game, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the mandatory consumer protection laws applicable to the country of residence of the Player. Where local mandatory laws do not apply, the laws of the State of New York shall apply.

Applicable to Players in Czechia:

Information on out-of-court Dispute resolution is available at: https://www.coi.cz/informace-o-adr/.

9. SEVERABILITY: If any provision or any part of a provision of these Official Rules is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable as a matter of law, that portion, provision, or part of the provision, as applicable, shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining portions, provisions, or part of provisions, as applicable, shall remain in full force and effect. If any invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision would be valid, enforceable, or legal if some part of it were deleted, the provision shall apply with whatever modification is necessary to give effect to the provision. To the extent that modification in accordance with the preceding two sentences is impossible, any invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision shall be deemed not to form part of these Official Rules and all other provisions of these Official Rules shall remain in force.

10. PRIVACY: Information collected from Players is subject to Sponsor’s Privacy Policy at https://www.nhl.com/info/privacy-policy. Players are advised that personal information collected will be stored on servers located in the United States and may be accessible to U.S. law enforcement, courts and other governmental institutions pursuant to the laws of the United States.

4. HOW TO PLAY: The Game challenges Users to try to achieve the longest streak of correct picks and to accumulate the highest point total by correctly selecting one (1) NHL player per NHL gameday/night that they think will score a goal in an NHL game. All NHL players, with the exception of goaltenders, are available for selection. With the exception of the first and second day of the Game Period, options for NHL player selection will be available on the Website three (3) days in advance of the NHL gameday/night. In order for a streak to be maintained, a User must make a selection of an NHL player for each NHL gameday/night featured and the NHL player that the User has selected must also score a goal in an NHL game on that given NHL gameday/night. A streak point will be awarded for each goal that the User’s selected NHL player scores in an NHL game on that given NHL gameday/night. By way of example, if a User makes four (4) correct picks for four (4) consecutive NHL gamedays/nights, they will earn a streak total of four (4). By further example, if a User selects the correct NHL players to score on four (4) consecutive NHL gamedays/nights, and on one (1) of those NHL gamedays/nights one (1) of their selected NHL players scored two (2) goals, the User will earn a streak total of five (5). In the event that a User did not select an NHL player for a given NHL gameday/night, or if the NHL player that the User selected did not score a goal in an NHL game, the current streak will come to an end and the streak will be reset to zero. Administrator’s clock is the official time-keeping device for this Game.

US User and NHL agree to make a good faith effort to resolve the Dispute for at least sixty (60) days following receipt of the notice of Dispute. If such parties cannot resolve the Dispute within that time period, it shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and heard by a single arbitrator. The AAA rules will govern except as specifically modified. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide except the following, which are for a court of competent jurisdiction to decide: (1) issues that are specifically reserved for a court and (2) issues related to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provisions. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party may bring claims (whether in court or in arbitration) against the other only in an individual capacity, and not participate as a plaintiff, claimant, or class member in any class, collective, consolidated, private attorney general, or representative proceeding. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the US User and NHL waive any right to a jury trial. There are additional procedures for “multiple case filings.” These Official Rules and any Dispute will be governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the state and federal courts of New York County, New York shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any Dispute (except for Disputes brought in small claims court) that are not subject to arbitration or over any action involving the applicability or enforceability of any provisions of these Official Rules (including the arbitration provisions and class action waiver).

Applicable to Canadian Users:

Any and all Disputes between the Canadian User and NHL shall be resolved exclusively by the courts of the Province of Ontario and all issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of the Canadian Users and Sponsor in connection with the Game, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada and the laws of Canada applicable therein without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the Province of Ontario or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Province of Ontario.

Applicable to US Users and Canadian Users:

Except where prohibited by law, and subject to the foregoing, Users agree that: (i) any and all such Disputes shall be resolved individually, without resort to any form of class action, (ii) under no circumstances will Users be permitted to obtain awards for, and Users hereby waive all rights to claim, indirect, punitive, incidental, consequential, and/or any other damages other than actual out-of-pocket expenses, (iii) they waive any and all rights to have damages multiplied or otherwise increased, and (iv) they irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts, as applicable to each such User, and waive any claim of forum non conveniens or lack of personal jurisdiction that they may have.

9. SEVERABILITY: If any provision or any part of a provision of these Official Rules is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable as a matter of law, that portion, provision, or part of the provision, as applicable, shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining portions, provisions, or part of provisions, as applicable, shall remain in full force and effect. If any invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision would be valid, enforceable, or legal if some part of it were deleted, the provision shall apply with whatever modification is necessary to give effect to the provision. To the extent that modification in accordance with the preceding two sentences is impossible, any invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision shall be deemed not to form part of these Official Rules and all other provisions of these Official Rules shall remain in force.

10. PRIVACY: Information collected from Users is subject to Sponsor’s Privacy Policy at https://www.nhl.com/info/privacy-policy.
