2016 Playoff Predications Game

Recommended Posts

We play this game every year at another forum I post at regularly, thought everyone here might enjoy it too.  I'm posting the rules verbatim, so if the English or explanation isn't great, it's not me :P

It's pretty simple to play though -- basically just pick which team you think is going to win in each series, the length of the series, the winning goal scorer that clinches the series win, and the number of OT games in the series.  You'll do the same thing each round, and points remain the same.  Only thing you need to pick now ahead of time besides the first round is the Stanley Cup winner and the Playoff MVP. 

Eastern Conference

Washington Capitals - Philadelphia Flyers
Series Winning Goal Scorer:
Number of OT Games:

Pittsburgh Penguins - New York Rangers
Series Winning Goal Scorer:
Number of OT Games:

Florida Panthers - New York Islanders
Series Winning Goal Scorer:
Number of OT Games:

Tampa Bay Lightning - Detroit Red Wings
Series Winning Goal Scorer:
Number of OT Games:

Western Conference

Dallas Stars - Minnesota Wild
Series Winning Goal Scorer:
Number of OT Games:

St. Louis Blues - Chicago Blackhawks
Series Winning Goal Scorer:
Number of OT Games:

Anaheim Ducks - Nashville Predators
Series Winning Goal Scorer:
Number of OT Games:

Los Angeles Kings - San Jose Sharks
Series Winning Goal Scorer:
Number of OT Games:



Stanley Cup Champion:
Playoffs MVP:

 


Point System:

1 Point: Series Winner correct
3 Points: Series Result correct
2/4/6 Points*: Series Winning Scorer correct

2 Points: Number of OT games correct
So if you say VAN 4-2 vs CGY and VAN indeed wins 4-2 you get 3 points for the correct series result not 4 for series winner and correct result!

5 points: Stanley Cup Champion
5 Points: Playoffs MVP


*Reminder for Series winner points:
If the player you pick is in the top 3 of goals scored on his team you get 2 points if correct.
If the player you pick is in 4-6th place of goals scored on his team you get 4 points if correct.
If the player you pick is 7th or worst on his team in goals scored you get 6 points if correct.

Based on regular season goal scoring.
