This is like the confidence challege, except you pick who you want to win. The rules are very simple. Every round, you pick who you want to win
IN THE FIRST ROUND
most to least. You rank your picks in order of how much you want them to win.
Not who you think will win, who you want to win, that's the point. Ignore matchups. Just rank who you want to win. You could go +16 Rangers and +15 Sens. As long as it's who you want to win the most to least.
In the first round, you pick +16, +15, +14, +13, +12, +11, +10, +9, +8, +7, +6, +5, +4, +3, +2, and +1.Then you redo it in the second, third and fourth rounds.
For the first round, you use the following format to make your picks. NOTE: This is just an example, these are NOT my picks for the first round.
+16 Blackhawks
+15 Capitals
+14 Wings
+13 Devils
+12 Kings
+11 Penguins
+10 Senators
+9 Sharks
+8 Rangers
+7 Predators
+6 Bruins
+5 Flyers
+4 Canucks
+3 Blues
+2 Panthers
+1 Coyotes
This would mean you are MOST wanting the Blackhawks will win and LEAST wanting the Coyotes will win.
And yes, this is a total rip of Smuffin's topic
Also, you're not trying to win this with the most points, it's just to see who's fortunes are best, it's not really a contest.
This is just to see who had the most satisfaction with the playoffs
Here's the official matchups:
Rangers vs Senators
Penguins vs Flyers
Panthers vs Devils
Bruins vs Capitals
Canucks vs Kings
Blues vs Sharks
Coyotes vs Blackhawks
