2011-12 Flyers Predict-a-Score Game
Back for it's fifth season - it's the Flyers Predict-a-Score Game for the 2011-12 season. Think you predict the outcome of the Flyers games this season? Well, lets see how accurate you are compared to your FMB friends. Who will join aphockey, Kappy and two-time Champion ericmedc in the Predict-a-Score Hall of Fame? Will it be you?
It works like this. Simply tell me what you think the score will be in each game, and score points accordingly. You will score 1 point for getting the score right, 1 point for getting the winning team right and 1 point for getting the goal difference correct. This means up to 3 points per game are up for grabs. Additionally, there will be an opportunity to earn double points by predicting the All Star Game result. Further details will be available nearer the time. The person(s) with the highest score at the end of the season will be crowned the 2011-12 FMB Predict-a-Score Champion.
So, I hope you will all enjoy! Standings will be available via the link in my signature!
Official Rules
1. Predictions must be made either in this thread, the appropriate GDT or sent to me via PM. Predictions made elsewhere will not be counted.
2. Predictions for a game must be made before the game starts.
3. Occasionally, mistakes may occur. If you spot something amiss in the scores or the rules, let me know, and I'll sort it out as best I can. I'm only human. However, the decisions of me (or, if I'm not available, my designated subsitute) are final.
4. I will try to update the scores and stats after each game. But like I said, I'm only human, so don't worry if results aren't up immediately.
5. This is meant to be a harmless bit of fun, with nothing at stake, save bragging rights. So, please don't take it too seriously, and do not cheat. If I find you cheating for whatever reason, I will disqualify you from this game, and possibly future games.
6. Have fun!
Enjoy!

I'll go next, but one-up from the last, because I want to see the Bruins humiliated for getting away with robbery/murder last year. Especially Chara, who got away with assault thanks to Campbell's dad.
So I'll say the final score will be 4 - 2, Flyers' favor. I'd go higher but then it'd be unrealistic...my own reasoning behind the score in this scenario allows for Bryz to let in a soft goal and then Boston getting ushered a PP goal. It'll take each Flyers line pitching in to overcome the Boston defense (rather overcome Chara's garbage clutching and general-"getting away with whatever he wants").
(Honestly though, I expect the league to pull out all the stops in favor of Boston for that game, so they don't lose face in front of a home crowd. Disgustingly cynical, but seems the most likely scenario, considering how rigged the playoffs were last season...)
I refuse to predict a Flyers' loss on the season opener, though, so my answer remains 4-2, lol

Just checked the archive. Wow, will be a challenge to beat AP's winning season. Without doing it the same way he did ofc

I predict that my point is more correct then yours. With the help of time zones, those predictions are usually quite accurate

The scoring system was slightly different in the first season, though.

Ah, it gave additional points for OT, right?

I think you'd be better of not having the top 25 % stat there
Besides, would be nice with a top 25 perfect predictions as well, though I guess I'm still after Kappy on that one as well

I meant to put that one up, but forgot. Will do that later this afternoon.
