6. HOW TO PLAY.

a. General. The objective of the Promotion is to accumulate the most points by correctly selecting the "winning pick" for each National Hockey League contest game during the Promotion Period. 1 correct pick = 1 point, win or correct pick as defined by the contest's rules page.

b. Selections. You may enter your selections online by following the instructions in the "How to Play" section of the game.

c. Scoring. From all eligible entries received, the winners will be determined based on their ability to accumulate the most wins during the Promotion Period on the main Supercontest entries. You accumulate points from the date of your first winning pick. You may begin playing after the start of the Promotion Period but you will not receive any points for games missed. For example, if you have no valid winning picks for a particular week (e.g., because you didn't enter), your points total for that week would be zero (0). In order to maximize the opportunity to accrue the most points, register and submit your entry no later than the first pitch of the first game of the eligibility period. In the event a scheduled professional hockey game listed does not occur as scheduled (e.g., a game is cancelled) no points will be awarded until the game is played and all picks will be retained. If the game is cancelled, picks will be removed. If the game is played at a later date, original picks will remain, however can be changed up until the time of the newly scheduled start.

d. Lock-time. All entries will use a rolling lock which allows a player to pick any game that has yet to begin. You will not be able to re-assign a pick to a game that is already underway or has been completed. Selections submitted after the deadlines are considered invalid, and no points will be received. Sponsor's computer is the official time keeping device for this game.

7. PRIZES. The approximate retail value ("ARV") of all prizes is guided by the individual contest rules.

Straight Winner - As specified in the rules.

All prizes will be paid within 2 weeks of the end of the eligibility period.

Odds of winning prizes depend on the total number of eligible entries received.
