Yes, and I didn't get a lot of feedback one way or the other. So, we'll start the playoffs with a new look to be unveiled Game 1. And we'll start from scratch, with a possible 16 wins up for grabs.

And, players will be able to call a shutout for either team, and get a win if it happens.

One weak spot- we could call for a shutout for the canes every game and might get a winner off that with nothing to lose lol

That would be like calling the goalie. If you go with Freddie, he needs a shutout for you to win.

I think far more difficult than calling a skater for the first.

Missing your logic. If those are the rules I will call for a Canes shutout for every game regardless of who is in Canes net. No one would beat me on the shutout call unless they call for a shutout of the Canes by the opposing team and get lucky. So it doesn’t make sense everyone could call “shutout” every game.

Okay.... but I've called more winners since we started this than the Canes have had shutouts. So I'm not following.

No worries. We'll leave the format as is.

Do you mean you have to call first goal AND the shutout to get a shutout win? Like you get 2 points for calling both?

Can you pick a player and a shutout or if you pick shutout then that’s your pick?

Do we give a point to start the playoff series to the regular season winner?

If you call Freddie or Pyotr or shutout- that's your pick. No other picks. 

So, between both goalies, they have what, 7 or 8 shutouts between them? I've called 8 first goals and we didn't even start until after the holidays if I remember correctly.

Call a shutout in the playoffs? Bold move.

Pyotr I believe has 5, Freddie has 3 on the small sample size since returning.

Ah, so it’s call first goal OR a shutout, got it. Didn’t see an OR in the OP but now it makes sense.
