How Pickem Works
- Each round of the NHL Playoffs will have it's own picks page.
- Each matchup will start with 3 or 4 games, depending on the minimum games for that round.
- If/when a series goes beyond the minimum number of games, we'll add games to the same picks sheet.
- Once each team in a series matchup wins 1 game, we'll add game 4 (or 5) to the picks page.
- If/when each team wins 2 games, we'll add game 5 (or 6) to the picks page.
- If/when each team wins 3 games, we'll add game 7 to the picks page.
- Real-time NHL Standings
- Winning teams from each round will be put into the next round.
How The Playoff Bracket Works
The playoff bracket is BACK!- Players fill out the entire 16 team bracket, all the way through the Stanley Cup, before the first round starts.
- Similar to a traditional March Madness bracket.
