NHL® LOTTO from OLG is Here and Hockey Glory Awaits!

It's Time to Take Your Best Shot!

TORONTO, Oct. 7, 2014 /CNW/ - Canada's favourite season is here and hockey glory awaits with NHL® LOTTO, the new game from Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG). NHL® LOTTO combines an animated, in-store shoot-out instant game with an evening lotto draw, themed with NHL® teams that you get to choose! For $2 per play, NHL® LOTTO gives you a "shot" at winning up to $15,000 instantly in-store and up to $100,000 with the nightly draw. 

"We're proud to team up with the NHL® to offer NHL® LOTTO for hockey fans and lottery players to take a chance on winning big throughout the season and all year round," said Greg McKenzie, OLG Senior Vice President, Lottery. "Associating this great new game with the best hockey league in the world will make NHL® LOTTO far more popular than a generic theme.  It's time to drop the puck and see who wins!"

To play, select your favourite NHL® team that you want as your shooting team or choose a Quick Pick for a random selection of any of the 30 teams. Then, watch the lottery terminal's Customer Display Screen as your shooter takes three shots at prize targets behind the goalie. If the shooting hockey player hits any one or more of the targets behind the goalie, you win the corresponding prizes of up to $15,000.

With NHL® LOTTO, there's still more game to play after the instant shoot-out with a nightly Lotto Draw for a chance to win the top prize of $100,000. Choose five numbers or use a Quick Pick combined with your Team selection to match against the five winning Lotto numbers and NHL® team drawn nightly to win prizes up to $100,000. You can win $3 just for matching the NHL® team on your ticket with the one drawn nightly.  

NHL® LOTTO is the newest addition to OLG's Watch 'n Win category in which each game features an animated in-store instant win game with a nightly draw and is the second to utilize a licensed theme along with the already popular WHEEL OF FORTUNE® LOTTO.

NHL® LOTTO tickets can be purchased at any lottery terminal retail location in Ontario. Must be 18 years of age or older. Visit the NHL® LOTTO page of olg.ca for more information.
