Collector Zone _ Contests and Giveaways _ 2012 Stanley Cup Finals pick three contest

Posted by: northicehero99 May 28 2012, 07:01 PM

This contest is to see who can put together a line of 3 players that will accumulate the most points in the Stanley Cup Finals series.

1 point will be awarded for each assist.
2 points will be awarded for each goal.

I will use the box score from NHL.com to determine the points by each player for each game.

So take a look at the Kings and Devils rosters on NHL.com and pick a line-up of any three players from either team.

Submit your picks as in a 1, 2, 3 format like below, listing the players and their teams to avoid any confusions if two players have the same name:

1 Player 1 - Kings
2 Player 2 - Devils
3 Player 3 - Devils

The tie-breaker questions will be:
"What will be the total number of goals scored in this series?"

The closest one will win, if we still have a tie, then the secondary tie breaker will be:

"What will Broduer's save percentage be?"

Prizes will include:
10-11 Artifacts Frozen Artifacts Patrick Elias dual gu red/blk #/35
05-06 SP Game Used Authentic Fabrics Steve Yzerman red GU
GU from the Kings (have to see what I have)
Plus several other items of the collectors favorite hockey team (assuming I have something for that team)

So submit your rosters and two tie-breaker questions before 7:30 PM EST on Wednesday May 30th. Good Luck!

I am surprised at the "named" players scoring in this one. When I have done these in the past it has always been the 3rd line guys that scored the majority of the points like Clarkson, Zildicky, Martinez, and Bernier, and the top guys like Kopitar and Kovalchuk usually are blanks. Well 1 of 2 is. laugh.gif

To me all these guys are "unnamed" since I don't follow either team. biggrin.gif But yes generally it is the guys who don't normally make the big scores that end up scoring the big ones in these series.

Yeah, you just come to expect longer back and forth series when playing for the cup. Heck, the Pens losing to the Flyers was more entertaining, and that pains me to say considering they lost to them. laugh.gif laugh.gif

Posted by: northicehero99 Jun 5 2012, 11:56 AM

Looking at the updated stats, I show:

aceecards widened his lead last night with 2 goals (Kopitar & Carter) and 2 assists (Kopitar & Doughty) to jump to 13 points.
GamerRoy also stepped up his game with 2 goals (Kopitar & Williams) and 3 assists (Kopitar, Williams, & Brown) to jump to 9 points only 4 off the lead.
captkirk42 is still hanging in there and added 3 points (Kopitar goal & assist) to move to 6 points.
otis0220 added 3 points (Kopitar goal & assist) to move to 5 points.
moparcudaz added a goal (Carter) to move to 4 points.
yankeesjetsfan added an assist (Doughty) to move to 4 points.

Like the Kings accecards has a large lead, but there is still one more game at least. If the Devils get taken off of life support it could make it interesting. laugh.gif We will see, not expecting the Kings to win on home ice as very few teams have done that, but they dominated game 3 on the scoreboard. It looks like someone forgot to tell the Devils they were playing last night, or their bodies were still on a 3 hour delay.

Update to the standings (if you find an error please let me know):

Aceecards still holding onto that lead with a 3 point night getting a goal (Doughty) and an assist (Kopitar) to jump to 16 total points. If not for that bad penalty call, aceecards might have been shut out. laugh.gif The difference in this contest appears to be the outstanding play by Doughty with 6 points (2 goals, 2 assists) in the series.
captkirk42 chasing ace with 4 more points last night getting a goal (Kovalchuk) and 2 assists (Kopitar, Clarkson) to jump to 10 points.
GamerRoy tied up second with an assist (Kopitar) to also jump to 10 points.
yankeesjetsfan makes a big move with 2 goals (Kovalchuk, Doughty) for a 4 point night vaulting him to 8 points.
otis0220 also made a move with 3 points, a goal (Kovalchuk) and an assist (Kopitar) to tie yankeesjetsfan at 8 points.
moparcudaz got 2 points for a goal (Henrique) to go to 6 points.

Good Luck to all for game 5.

And why doesn't the Devils send the puck all the way down the other way when they are on the short end of a powerplay? Other teams do it....

And the winner is aceecards!!!

His lineup had a big push tonight (guess so with 6 Kings goals) as he got 2 goals from Carter, and 3 assists (Kopitar, Doughty x2) to finish with 23 points (7 last night).

Congrats Steve, please send me your address and I am guessing you like the Blues??? laugh.gif


Here are the rest of the results:
GamerRoy pushed aceecards at the end getting 5 points with 4 points from Brown (2 assists & goal) and an assist from Kopitar to finish with 17 points.

moparcudaz did a leapfrog getting three goals one from Henrique and 2 from Carter to move to 14 points.

yankeesjetsfan also moved up with the 2 assists from Doughty to 12 points.

otis0220's 2/3rds Devils lineup was just not enough as he only got an assist by Kopitar to move to 11 points.

captkirk also was slowed by his 2/3 rds Devils lineup as he also only got an assist by Kopitar to end up tied with 11 points.

Thank you everyone for playing. Steve send me a pm, please. Thanks.

On the officiating you will learn that you see more accuracy out of WWF refs than the NHL. laugh.gif One thing they never are is consistent, and sometimes they call everything, other times nothing, and this occurs from shift to shift and game to game.

It is horrible that the 5 minute powerplay determined the outcome of the game. I think it was the right call, however Scuderi got himself in a bad position. It looked to me like he decided to turn back at the last second which opened him up for the hit on the numbers, had he kept skating the hit would have been on his shoulder IMO and it appeared Bernier held up on what could have been a massive hit, he just caught him off balance forcing him head first into the boards. I also thought Brown got away with several borderline hits, but that is the NHL.
