Worst to 1st, I'm amazed I still have a chance at the title with the way the week began.

1. hockeyrube7 - 12 points
1. DmanDad1980 - 12 points
3. nothernguy - 11 points
4. hockeyheaven - 9
4. Bensonmum - 9
6. Knight7 - 8
6. joehockey - 8
6. Joethehockeydad - 8
9-10. Two tied with 7
11-12. Two tied with 6

So this Final Games contest comes down to hockeyrube7 and DmanDad1980 Tuesday night. hockeyrube7 says 5-1 Hill Murray; DmanDad1980 predicts 4-1. Behind by just one, nothernguy would ordinarily have a chance but he also picked a 4-1 score so he cannot overtake DmanDad1980 but would be this week's runnerup if ends up 4-1.

With Sections starting next week, maybe we can start a pool once they get down to the semi's(?).
Final Big Game this regular season ends with a big upset as Benilde-St. Margaret's surprises Hill Murray on their own rink, 3-1. This caught ALL contestants off guard with nobody predicting BSM to win. In a total homer call I put down a 1-1 tie but this still didn't get me a point. So, with this final game complete, the points in the standings shown above do not change, and FIRST PLACE goes in a tiebreaker to DmanDad1980! Congrats to DmanDad for a job well done!
hockeyrube7 takes the Silver and nothernguy gets the Bronze.

Thanks to everyone who participated in these contests this year, it's been great fun hosting them! Now on to Sections...
