DEEP CUT
Warming up the rink
Fetching today’s game.
The daily hockey game
Six shifts. One shot each. Scored on how deep the cut goes.
Deep Cut is a daily test of how much hockey you actually know. Everyone gets the same six prompts, and the game rewards the answer nobody else remembered.
Six shifts a day, the same six prompts for everyone, new at 6:00 AM ET. Name a player for each, or pass. The score is how rare your answer is: the whole rink shouts the first name, and the gem nobody else in the building had is worth ten times as much. At the final horn you get a draft card graded on the run and a grid to share.
