It's the MOST wonderful time of the year! The playoffs start tomorrow, and we have three more games on Sunday. The NHL has spaced these games out beautifully so that each has its own timeslot. Love when you can watch all the playoffs at the same time!
So every year we make our picks and every year we talk about having a contest. And every year I make my picks and am told how wrong I am because "You never player in the NHL" or "You never get rumors right" or my favorite "You are NOT from Canada."
Well..time to put your money where your bitter little typing fingers are and make your pick.
Here is how this will work...
Each round you will post into the "I Know More than Ek" comments blog for that round who you think will win each series and in how many games?
The scoring will be done as follows...
5 points for every right team you pick..
PLUS BONUS POINTS
5 points if you get the number of games in the series exactly right.
3 points if you are off by 1 game
2 points if you are off by 2 games
1 point if you are off by 3 games.
It is THAT simple.
I will keep this thread open until the puck drops for the first game at 7 PM tomorrow night.
The player with the most points will win an exact duplicate, hand-painted, game-ready (if you are crazy to wear this kind of mask in 2021) goalie mask. One of the best designs of all time...
The Mask in the Photo on the Home Page is a copy of "The Lion" worn by Gilles Gratton, Rangers Goalie..
We will also come up with 5 other prizes for the next 5 best scores. Finally, if you beat my score you will be allowed to gloat in the comments of a special blog for that purpose...
I will be posting my picks for the East Tomorrow, the West and Central on Sunday, and The North on Monday.
