Self-Managed: Understanding the Contest Details Page for NHL Contests

The Contest Details page gives commissioners and entrants a central place to review important information about their NHL contest.

This page is available for NHL Pick'em contests and is especially helpful for entrants who want to understand their contest's setup, rules, schedule, and participants.

Where Can I Find Contest Details?

Open your NHL contest and select Contest Details from the menu on the left.

From here, you'll see several tabs containing information specific to your contest:

  1. Overview

  2. Settings

  3. Rules

  4. Schedule

  5. Entrants


Overview

The Overview tab provides a quick summary of your contest.

Depending on your contest setup, you can review information such as the league, contest type, whether multiple entries are allowed, a description of how the format works, who created the contest, and the number of entrants currently participating.

This is a great starting point for members who are new to the contest.


Settings

Select Settings to review the settings selected by your commissioner.

This helps entrants understand how their specific contest has been configured rather than relying on the default rules for an NHL Pick'em or Survivor contest.


Rules

The Rules tab provides information about how your contest works and how selections are scored or evaluated.

We recommend entrants review this section before making their first picks so they understand the rules that apply to their contest.


Schedule

Select Schedule to review the schedule associated with your NHL contest.

This can help entrants understand the contest timeline and which weeks or periods are included.


Entrants

The Entrants tab allows members to see who has joined the contest.

The Overview page also provides a quick Entrants section where you can select View All to see the full list.


Why Is Contest Details Important?

Not every NHL Pick'em or Survivor contest will be configured the same way.

Commissioners can customize certain settings during contest creation, so entrants should use Contest Details as a reference for how their specific contest is set up.

If you're unsure about your contest type, settings, rules, schedule, or who is participating, Contest Details is a great place to start.
