![]() ![]() The tie breaker in this pool is the total number of goals scored in the entire series of the Stanley Cup Finals. The participant with the most points wins! If you need another office pool to run try our NHL Playoff Squares where the idea is similar to the Super Bowl Squares, but instead of drawing numbers you will draw team names and the winning square will be the two teams playing in the Stanley Cup Finals. Then add up the points in the "Total Points" column and write the final total in the gray box that says "Total Points". Each playoff week you pick a winner for every game, and place a 'weight' on each game from 1 to 13. The #16 team being the team they think will win the most games throughout the playoffs, the #15 team being the team to win the second most games, and so on, all the way down to #1.Įach time a team wins a game, the pool participant will get the corresponding points(rank = points).Īfter the Stanley Cup Finals champion is crowned, add up the points accumulated from each individual team and write that amount in the "Total Points" column. Have the pool participants write the team name in the square beside the corresponding number. We also have the Printable NHL Playoff Bracket available.

Simply total up the number of games each person has picked correctly, the person with the highest total is the winner. I prefer to use the person that is simply the closest to the total points scored, as opposed to the closest without going over. The tiebreaker is to be used, if after every game(including the Monday night game) 2 or more people have picked the same amout of games correctly. Each person should also write their name and their guess for the total points scored in the Monday night game in the spaces provided. If they were to lose by 5 or more the pick would be incorrect.Įach participant should put a check mark in the box provided beside the team that they think will "cover the spread". The participant picks Cleveland at +4.5(underdog), Cleveland can either win, or lose the game by up to 4 points and the pick is correct. Keep in mind that if a person picks the underdog, that team does not have to win, but instead can not lose by more points than the point spread.

You will then pass copies out to potential participants of your pool, having each participant try to correctly pick which team will cover the spread.ĭue to not knowing whether a key player will be able to participate in a game, there are some instances where the linesmakers may delay releasing the spreads until later in the week. Every week, on either Sunday or Monday, we will update the next week's sheet with the current Point Spread for each game. Our Spread 'Em pool is also known as an ATS or Against the Spread Pool.
