My SHL game is going to be in the style of a game collectible card game. There would be several key booster packs that include big names from different teams, but the real stars would be in booster packs that you’ve got to purchase and hope you get lucky or trade what you do get with your friends.

The collectible card game will feature various things that basically rack up points over a set number of rounds. Rather than killing opponents as you often do in other CCGs in this one you will be able to bait somebody into a fight and knock em out for a bit, or play a card that gets your opponents baited into something stupid that lands them in the penalty box.

Eventually the SHL would want to license core boxes, or maybe starter boxes that featured big names from each team in the league so that their fans could get started with the core group from their favorite team.

The game would be a hit when you could duke it out Calgary vs. Edmonton and reenact some epic series from the past with your favorite players or even a combination of old legends and new rookies. The other benefit would be the league could make a fortune reissuing players each season as they changed in skillset and play style on the ice.

Some fans would likely just collect the cards of their favorite players or perhaps the most rare players, and not even play at all.
