Ok since the thread for people to join is getting a little long, please post your brackets here.

The rules:

1 point for each correct prediction for each Conference Quarterfinal matchup.

2 points for each correct prediction for each Conference Semi-final matchup.

3 points for each correct prediction for each Conference Final matchup.

4 points for picking the correct Cup champion.

Also, for each series, list what you think will be the outcome. Such as 4 games to 0, 4 games to 1, and so on. This is not going to give you any points, but will be used as a tiebreaker. If 2 people are tied for 1st with 23 points, then the person who had more series outcomes correct will get the tiebreaker.

Remember, the brackets in the NHL are based on seeding. The highest seed in each round plays the lowest seed in each round. PLEASE POST BRACKETS ONLY IN THIS THREAD. That way all the brackets are in one place. We will use the other thread as discussion/trash talk/whatever. I will post the standings after each round in that thread.

Of course your brackets will not physically look like a bracket, since that would be impossible to do on the boards. Instead it is a logical bracket. I will post a small example at the bottom of this post.

Here is the list of people who have signed up so far.

 that thread to post any questions, or PM me.

Good luck everyone and remember, please post brackets only in this thread!
