PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE IN OR OUT ASAP, EVEN IF YOU DID NOT MAKE THE TOP 16. THERE WILL BE ROOM FOR EVERYONE THAT IS INTERESTED.

The top 16 players are invited to play. If anyone declines or does not respond before Monday at 5:00 PM Central, I will bump the responding players up the standings and invite players that finished out of the top 16 to join. They will be joining on a first come, first serve basis. You must have registered at least 1 point in the regular season to be eligible.

If we do not get 16 players, the highest seeds will receive byes until we have enough matchups.

Once the everyone responds, I will seed a bracket 1v16, 2v15, etc.

The lineups will be as followed. Be aware you are only allowed to pick one lineup per round, and the lineups will reset once the round is over.

Forward - Forward - Forward
Defense - Defense

There are no restrictions on who you can choose, however you can only select the player once in the playoffs. The only exception is goaltender which you can duplicate only in the finals if you have already chosen both goaltenders that are the starters on their team. The points remain the same from the regular season.

Lineups can be PM'ed to me or posted in the thread that is created. I will not share your picks with anyone and I will post mine in the thread. All rosters will be posted when they are locked so there is no changes after the puck drops on game 1 of the round. If you fail to post a roster, you will be given 0 points for the round.

There will be bonus points available. If you pick the winner of the series correct, you receive 2 points. If you predict the correct amount of games the series ends in, you get 2 points. If you get both correct, it becomes a total of 5 points.

If there is a tie, the higher seed wins the tiebreaker. That way you have an advantage and the regular season has meaning.

Feel free to submit your lineups now either here or through PM.

I'll have the brackets once the games actually start. There were some ties that I'll have to go look at to see who is where.

I'm in... maybe this can help keep me following the playoffs a bit.

I didn't understand this part of the rules though:

"There will be bonus points available. If you pick the winner of the series correct, you receive 2 points. If you predict the correct amount of games the series ends in, you get 2 points. If you get both correct, it becomes a total of 5 points."

Are we supposed to include a prediction for one of the matchups each round? Any of the 8 series?

You will pick a series winner and amount of games for each series.

For example:

Lightning in 5
Bruins in 6
Flyers in 7
Capitals in 4

etc..

For those that are in, please use this thread for your rosters/picks. You can edit your post up until game 1 of the playoffs start. If you end up with a bye, your picks will not count and you will be able to use those players in subsequent rounds.
