AHA Post Season Pick'em

Re: AHA Post Season Pick'em

I propose the format used by the ECAC playoffs, or at least a variation of it. There are some issues with the scoring (outlined by Maine-iac in post 123). Maybe the AHA could fix them.

Looks like a good idea at first glance. I thought about switching it to picking the winner in how many games for the quarterfinals - this eliminates picking the wrong team on the wrong night. I don't see what the team affiliations are for (but I didn't really read too much into it - i will later). I don't think that we would have a very fair spread of affiliations here.

vicb holds the individual contest, as well as a team contest. The team contest is just an average of everyone who cheers for a specific team. It's just a little side competition. If you check out the team affiliations on the ECAC thread, RPI dominates in numbers (20+ with no other team having more than 10).

(If you do end up reading through the thread, be prepared to deal with lots of stats and probability theory around post 110.)

My picks

RIT over Canisius - RIT will finally advance in the AHA playoffs due to superior goaltending and defense. The Tigers are playing their best hockey of the season. Canisius will keep it close, but RIT will prevail 4-2

Sacred Heart over Air Force - This will be an incredible game. Air Force smoked the Pioneers a couple weeks ago. This game will be much closer. I predict overtime. Pios 3, Air Force 2

Final

RIT over Sacred Heart - The Tigers won 3 out of 4 against the Pioneers. DeMichiel will be the differance. Tigers 3, Sacred Heart 2
