That's right. It's back. The one and only FFR NHL Playoff Predictions thread!
PREDICTIONS FOR ROUND 4 ARE CLOSED!
Now that the regular season is over, it's time to get the playoff beards rolling for this season. A couple MAJOR shockers, and a few familiar faces line this years playoffs.
Last year, a decent amount of FFRers took place in predicting and that thread turned into the hub for all playoff hockey talk stretching almost 70 pages long. Reshiram eventually became the grand champion by sealing his win after round 3. No one went below .500 though. Here's to hopefully an even bigger turn-out and some good chat among everyone!
Want to see what everyone is picking? See this post to get an idea: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...9&postcount=29

First things first, the part that matters the most.
THE RULES:
- All guesses must be in before puck drop of the first game of the round.
- Bet per round; you don't have to pick your whole bracket in one go.
- Anyone is free to join in any round; just as long a your predictions are posted in time.
- Once your picks are made, they are done. No editting them at any time.
- For your picks, copy and paste the bracket posted below and bold the teams you think will win each series.

PRIZE POOL:
Each correct guess will be worth:
200 credits for the 1st round with a 3400 credit bonus if you get all 8.
200 credits for the 2nd round with a 2200 credit bonus if you get all 4.
400 credits for the 3rd round with a 1200 credit bonus if you get both teams correct.
600 credits for picking the Champion as well as a 9400 credit bonus if you correctly predict the amount of games they won in.
(Note: If you picked team E in 6, but team W wins in 6, you do not get the bonus.)
As well, the 2012 Playoff Pick Champion will receive another 5000 credits, as well as a graphic. However, you must predict for all 4 rounds to be in the pool for the title of Playoff Pick Champion.
