Does awarding, say, 4-4-12 (opposed to 2-2-6) place too much emphasis on the later rounds? The reasoning that later rounds=more important holds a little bit of water, but I don't think it is necessarily fair to dilute rounds 1 and 2 (12 of 15 total rounds) too much.


Yes it does because everyone gets a chance to pick the winner for the conference finals/cup finals. Later rounds = more important would hold more water if you structured the picks bracket style where everyone locks their picks in from the beginning of the playoffs. It's actually harder to pick the correct winner and games in the earlier rounds rather than the Conf/Cup finals because there are more matchups. Half of the posters should be able to pick the winner of the cup based on chance alone.

Woohoo! I couldn't have done it without meticulously scouring spreadsheets of fancystats and then ultimately disregarding them and taking best guesses! My PDO: Beginner's luck was at an all time high!

Favorite team/players: anything Flyers and Giroux, Voracek, Timonen, Leclair, Hextall and Lindros are/have been my favorite players.

I like the Sisyphus idea or something along the lines of Hextall with his stick raised in the fashion of the Here's Johnny scene from the Shining or just a Flyers goalie mask done in the style of the Invisible Man.

The Battle of Gettysburg is a clever idea and you could also make it more NHL-wide and depict a battle for the Cup.

A couple Flyers-centric ideas:

Classic Flyers players (Clarke, Schultz, Hexy, Giroux, Lindros, Leclair, etc.) in this style.


or a super ambitious idea to recreate this painting using Flyers players and instead of forming a candle in the middle, Lord Stanley's Cup is formed instead
