Here's how you play:
For each matchup, you must pick a team and the number of games.
If you get the right team, you get 2 points.
If you get the right number of games, you get 2 points.
If you are off the number of games by +/- 1, you get 1 point.
Points are double in the 2nd round.
Points are tripled in the 3rd round.
Points are quadrupled in the 4th round.
(for those that don't know...each series is a best of 7 series...so you MUST win 4 games to advance)
For example, if I say "Dallas over Anaheim in 6" and Dallas wins in 7, I get 2 points for the right team and 1 point for being off by 1 game. If I say Minnesota over Colorado in 6 and the Aves win the series in 6, I get 2 points for picking the right number of games - but 0 for picking the wrong team.
You MUST make your Round 3 picks before round 3 starts. Round 4 will allow you to make all new picks.

(it also means Moe picks Dallas and Philly) You know as well as I do that Hokey Town (not mispelled) is in Dallas' head and has been for years. The Stars go brain dead whenever they see that red sweater on the other side of the face off. I'm praying that this year, they can ignore who they're playing and break through, but we'll see.
GO STARS!!!!
