CHEL Intel: World Championship – NHL 24

In this edition of CHEL Intel: World Championship, we'll get fans caught up to speed on all the North American and European regional action, introduce readers to the finalists, and set up what should be an exciting finale this weekend. News, qualifier information, and results can be found in real-time on the tournament's website, www.nhl.com/NHL24. Fans can follow along on social media using #NHL24WC. Format Six players – Deeks, Eki, Gren, Polgz, Regs, Temppanen – have qualified for the NHL 24 WC Final – the top four players from the North American Championship and the top two players from the European Championship. The World Final will be played on the PlayStation 5 Console.

Besides taking home $15,000 USD for winning their respective regional titles, Eki (winner of the European Championship) and Gren (winner of the North American Championship) also received a bye into the semifinal round of the World Final. These two competitors will play a best-of-one match to determine who will be designated the top seed. The remaining four players will play a best-of-one round-robin. The round-robin will be scored as two points for a win, one point for an overtime loss, and zero points for a regulation loss with the tie-breaking process designated by tournament rules. The top two finishers will advance to a semifinal round with the highest finisher in one pod playing the second finisher in the other. The semifinal and final rounds of the NHL 24 World Championship Final will be a best-of-three to decide the winner of the NHL 24 World Championship.
