Win-win. Helps Utica out in the playoffs and he's been playing meaningful hockey if his services are required up here.

Play-off Hockey Pool

I'm just bumping this up from earlier today. We are getting down to the deadline here shortly so please kindly forward your emails/picks as soon as you can (deadline is tomorrow at 3 PM)

Please note, we're still unsure if there is going to be a cash prize at the end (nothing extravagant - i.e. $10-15 dollars per person entry fee). But at this point not sure if that's going to be possible. Nucker will let you/us know as he's had some interest from a number of people to have a prize to the winner.
_______________________________________________________________

Anyone interested in the playoff pool that me and Zogg are running can PM me or him for full details. Basically you pick your roster for the entire playoffs so the key is to pick good playoff performers and players from strong teams since you won't be allowed to substitute from round to round.

Scoring
Goal = 4 Points(5 for a GWG)
Assist = 3 Points
Hit = 1 Point
Shot Block = 1 Points
Goalie Win = 5 Points(10 For Shutout)
Goalie Loss = -2 Points

Rosters
12 Forwards
6 Defensemen
2 Goalies

Deadline to sign up is 3 PM Wednesday. Please PM me or Zogg with your email(for invite) and your 20 man roster since only the commish can apparently set rosters.

Thanks!

The site we're using is kinda crappy(not many sites set up for playoff pools). So only the commish can enter in the rosters so just PM me or Zogg with your email and your 20 man roster. It's not a draft you can pick any 20 but those guys are your 20 for the entire playoffs.

No problem, only the Commissioner is going to be able to input the teams. You just have to make a list of 12 forward, 6 defenseman and 2 goaltenders which you feel will bring you the most points throughout the playoffs. You can send the list and your e-mail (can't recall if you already sent me that? ) to myself or Nucker and we will input into the pool

You are right, but we figured the current format is a little bit more challenging and you'll have to be a bit more creative in putting together your squad.

Hey guys I'm doing a playoff pool. PM me with your credit card number, and that code on the back (they require this for some reason), your SIN, and your mothers maiden name. I'll add you to the list, only I can do it for some reason. Looking forward to it, I'll send out updates (from Thailand) every couple weeks.

So far I think I've seen one expert pick the canucks and that was Ray Ferraro. Didn't expect us to be such big underdogs.

The only opinion that really matters are the bookies. Every reputable betting line I've seen has vancouver over calgary.

Elliott Friedman did too. He and Ferraro are the only two whose opinion I put much stock into.
