In its infinite wisdom, the NHL.com website decided to do a “Hattrick Challenge” instead of a playoff pool setup. So…..let’s get something going here.
You have to predict each series and the number of games it will take.
In each round you will receive a certain amount of points for the right team and choosing the correct amount of games each series goes.
Pick a winner of round 1: 2 points
Pick the right amount of games :1 point
Pick the winner of round 2: 3 points
Pick the right amount of games :1 point
Pick the winner of Conference Finals: 4 points
Pick the right amount of games :1 point
Pick the right amount of games :1 point
Here are my picks:
1ST ROUND
TB beats CLS 4-1
BOS beats TOR 4-2
WASH beats CAR 4-2
PITT beats NYI 4-3
CAL beats COL 4-2
VEG beats SJS 4-3
NASH beats DAL 4-1
STL beats WINN 4-3
2nd ROUND
TB beats BOS 4-2
WASH beats PITT 4-2
CAL beats VEG 4-3
STL beats NASH 4-2
Conf Finals
TB beats WASH 4-2
STL beats CAL 4-3
TB beats STL 4-2
There it is…the winning prediction.
