Popular Post Goalie29 Posted October 7 Popular Post Share Posted October 7 We are back! Welcome to the (at least) 7th annual Predict The Score Challenge. The challenge is simple. For each Canucks game I will post a thread. You predict the game winner, the final score of the game and who scores the game winning goal. I will keep a running tally of the points through the entire season. This will continue until the final game of the regular season, or until the Canucks are eliminated from the playoffs, or until the Canucks win the Stanley Cup, whichever comes last. No betting is allowed. Only bragging rights are on the line. No prizes. Here are how the points work: If you get just the winning team correct, that's one point. If you get the final score correct, but the winning team wrong, that's one point. If you get both the winning team and the final score correct, that's three points. If you correctly predict the game winning goal scorer, that's one point. Note - As the NHL does not count shootout goals as game winning goals, neither do I. However, if instead of picking a GWG scorer, you correctly predict that the game will end in a shoot-out, that's one point. If you get everything correct, you get a bonus point for a total of 5 points. Points will increase after 28 games and 56 games. On occasion I will post bonus questions. These will generally be of the 50/50 variety so the odds of predicting it right are pretty good. These will be worth 1 point. All predictions MUST be posted before the drop of the puck or they will not be counted. Also, do not edit your post after the puck has been dropped. If you post or edit after puck drop, it will not be counted. And, only one prediction per game. If you accidentally post more than one prediction (it happens) I will only count the first one. I will post the leaderboard of everyone that has earned at least one point, in the following game's thread. In the event of an error (it happens every year), please fire me a DM. I keep very thorough records and am happy to correct any mistake I make. Banter about predictions is fine, but please keep game discussions to the applicable GDT.
