The contest deadline for part 1 is 6:00 PM EST Thursday, March 1st.

This form includes only the ECAC, Hockey East, WCHA, Atlantic Hockey, and
Big Ten.  The NCHC begins its tournament next weekend.

Fill in your predicted winners for each first round/quarterfinal series.
For the quarterfinals, fill in the road team you predict will be playing
each series (as needed).  Also fill in the number of games (2 or 3) you
expect to be played in the series.

For the WCHA and Big Ten semifinals, fill in the teams you predict will
be playing, your predicted winners, and the number of games (2 or 3) you
expect to be played in the series.

For the other semifinals, consolation games, and championships, fill in
the teams you predict will be playing as well as your predicted winners.
MAKE SURE YOUR SEEDINGS/MATCHUPS ARE CORRECT!  The ECAC, Hockey East, and
Atlantic Hockey all reseed twice, before the quarterfinals and before the
semis. The WCHA and the Big Ten reseed before the semis.  Impossible
matchups will be given zero points, unless I can get a correction from you
before the deadline.

Don't forget to fill in the tiebreakers!  Tiebreaker #1 is your predicted
score in the championship game; tiebreaker #2 is your predicted total goals
scored in that league's entire tournament.

If you don't want to do predictions for one or more tournaments, just leave
it/them blank.

Return your completed form to [log in to unmask] .  (REPLY in your
mailer MAY NOT WORK -- check to be sure)

Good luck!
