Section Final Games - Pick The Winners
Posted: Mon Feb 11, 2008 10:48 pm
by MNHockeyFan
Similar to the weekly "Big Games" regular season contests, this thread will be devoted to picking the winner of each section final and the score. Between A and AA there are 16 games in all. It is open to anyone who wants to participate, and everyone is most welcome.
Since some sections are running ahead of the others, timing will be an issue. The fairest way to handle this is to make sure you have your score posted at least one hour before each game time (the clock on this site will decide if entries are received in time). As the match-ups for each final become known they will be posted here, so be sure to check in regularly.
The same scoring system as "Big Games" will apply, except of course in sections there are no tie games:
Pick the winner = 1 point
Incorrect prediction of the winner = subtract 1 point
Pick the winner AND the correct final score = 3 points (i.e. 2 bonus points)
First games up are the 3AA and 7AA finals, beginning Wednesday night:
Wednesday, February 13 @ 7:00 pm
3AA - Eagan vs. Hastings
Thursday, February 14 @ 7:00 pm
7AA - Grand Rapids/Greenway vs. Duluth

7AA is still undetermined; yet we appreciate your forward thinking.
Duluth is going down like a freighter struk amidship by a giant pelican.

Ahh I see what you mean, amongst all the predictions for GRG's upcoming victory, the meaning was blurred.

Heh heh, funny one Mum. How about posting your picks for 3AA and 7AA? The Roseville over Stillwater prediction can be made later on tonight (maybe).
Edit: Sorry about that - you already posted them above!
