Welcome, once again, to the 5th Annual FFR NHL Playoff Pick'em Challenge!

Picks are CLOSED for Round 4.

Code:

QUICK LINKS
Po2: Match-Ups
Po3: Standings
Po4: Bracket

Who will be the next one to step up and claim the title of Playoff Pick'em Champion and follow in the footsteps of the champions before them?

In fact, let's look at the history now!

10/11: Reshiram [10-5]
11/12: pikakirby123 [9-6]
12/13: trumaestro [11-4]
13/14: lumphoboextreme; Poison- [10-5*]

13/14 Bracket: Kibblre; DarkManticoreX2; Poison- [13 pts. each]

* While 4 people went 10-5, these two won due to the series game total tiebreaker.

Who will achieve the lofty goal of knocking not one, but TWO people off for a chance at the crown? We'll find out in the 2014/15 edition of FFR Playoff Pick'em!

Now for the important stuff:

THE RULES
1.) All picks MUST be in before the puck drops on the first game of a round. This does get a little more into crunch time the further a series goes, and I will be lenient (like usual), but I would appreciate it if this was the deadline people focused on.

2.) NO EDITTING YOUR PICKS! Pick wisely because there's no going back. If picks are editted, you will be disqualified for the round - thus eliminating you from the championship pool - and your post modified.

3.) In order to be in the running for Playoff Pick'em Champion, you must submit for ALL 4 rounds.

4.) Have fun.

5.) Grow those glorious playoff beards.

THE SET-UP
All picks are to be made in this format
Winner vs. Loser

I will accept abbreviations, or you can just copy/paste the templates I will make round-by-round.

-

Returning for a second season, it's
THE PLAYOFF BRACKET CHALLENGE!
Like the March Madness tournament, you will pick your FULL round winners, and not just round-by-round.
Like last year, this is a separate challenge with a separate prize, and brackets are due at the same deadline as the round 1 picks.

If you wish to participate, PLEASE MAKE A SEPARATE POST FROM YOUR ROUND CHOICES.

One other thing, you DON'T need to participate, but, hey, they're free credits: why not?

You will score points for however many correct winners you have.
- If you correctly guess the winner in round 1, you score 1 point.
- If you correctly guess the round winner, and their correct opponent, in rounds 2-4, you score 2 points.
- If you correctly guess a round winner, but not the correct opponent, you score 1 point. (this will kick in after round 1)

Ex: You guess BOS v MTL, but in reality, it was BOS v TBL, you would score 1 point for correctly guessing BOS even though they did not play MTL.

Please remember that teams do not re-seed after the rounds. They will stay inter-division until a "division champion" is crowned.
