    Sj and the bolts in 6
    You don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto Luongo

      The most accurate playoff pool I was ever in simply measured deviation from the result with the smallest deviation winning. If you picked TEAM A in 4 and they won in 6 the deviation was 2 --- If Team B won in 7 it was a 4 and so on-- The downside, I guess is that there are advantages to picking a long series-- picking a sweep could be very risky (with a max deviation of 7 in one series ouch--

      IN a pool like ours you could calculate it out but the only question is how to handle champion picks etc etc-- I heard a couple of people debate how much it should subtract from their score--
      I think something like that would be great for next year.

      The other way we could do it is give 2 points for a correct answer and 1 point for being off by one win (including a loss in 7 instead of a win), and continue to give bonus points for picking conference and cup winners.

        Crossing fingers. Have a good chance of moving up with both conference picks intact.

        With a Canucks win today and Boston win tomorrow I get 9 points and 26. Super49 only gets 2, for 26. NYE would get 8 for 29.

                Your non-homer picks would've had Vancouver win the cup with just 16 wins.

                  Still kicking your butt in the pick - em. Both conference picks made it through.

                  would've had Vancouver win the cup with just 16 wins.
                  Is there another way to do it?

                    just 16 wins. As in, nothing else.

                      Well I don't see how you can get more than 16 wins.

                      Do they get a bonus for being the only nw division team to make the playoffs?

                        You're once again demonstrating your phenomenal stupidity.

                            If you meant 16 wins and no losses, then you should have said it. What you said implies that 16 wins is somehow less than normal like they got a bye.
