ATTENTION: We have a Twist on the Game until the End.

Pick who you think will get the first goal as usual, However, we now have a Bonus to the game. Pick the period and time your pick will score and if within 1 minute either way, you pick up a Bonus point. EXAMPLE: Aho at 3:30 of the 1st period - if Aho scores the first goal of the game anywhere between 2:30 and 4:30 into the 1st period you get 2 points 1 for picking Aho and one for picking the time scored.

So a rule change in the middle of the game, lol? Don't you think that might best be incorporated in next years game?

@mikeyfan Kind of agree w @LakeLivin here. There's a horse race going on and I'd like to see it played out. Maybe add a new column for any bonus points.

with 17 games remaining I was looking at adding a little spice to it but I also looked to make the bonus as difficult as possible. I don’t have to count it though

I can understand what you're thinking. But consider this analogy: the NHL says "We've been operating all year on the 2 pts for a win and 1 point for a OT/shootout loss system. But in order to add some spice, for the rest of the season we're going to start counting a regulation win as 3 points, 2 for OT/shootout win, and 1 for OT/shootout loss." That just seems inappropriate to me.

The principle of a mid game rule change bothers me, maybe due to instances where I've experienced one even outside of sports. But if the rest of you want to incorporate it, that's your call.

While I dont disagree, there is literally nothing at stake here so not a big deal to me!

I didn’t pick anyone the last two games. We didn’t score in the last two games. I should probably not do that again.

Derailed- in fairness to Lake I will refrain from taking the additional bet ( until someone gets close to over taking me)
