    To show my appreciation for all the help and great information I receive on this board I am holding a contest for a 1970-S small date Lincoln cent graded (yes graded!) by ANACS as MS63. I got the grade online and it doesn't tell me if it's red or red brown. I am pretty sure it will be red brown. I get the coin on Tuesday and will post a picture of the coin then.

    Now here are the rules. Give me your best guess of who will win the Stanley Cup in hockey this year and the number of games that the team you pick will win it in. To non-hockey fans out there it is the Pittsburgh Penguins vs Detroit Red Wings. Right now Detroit leads the series 1-0 and it is a best of seven series. Wanted to post this contest before the series started but was out of town.

    One guess only please. Multiple guesses will be disqualified. Please get your guess in by 8pm Eastern Monday night which is the start of game number 2. All guesses after 8pm Eastern Monday will not be counted. Best of luck everyone!

    I'll be the odd-ball and say Pittsburgh (because my wife will kill me if I don't) in seven games. Long shot, but what the heck! final game score 1-2.

    I should of thought of this before. In case people pick the same team and number of games the tie breaker will be the final score of the last game. So if anyone has already put their guess in if you good add a final score of the last game it would be appreciated. Sorry I didn't have that in the rules in the first place.

    As an aside, I have a friend who works on the training staff of the IHL (minor league hockey) Chicago Wolves, they are on the brink of winning another championship! They are 1 game away from the finals, and it would be my friend's 3rd championship ring since he joined the staff! Man those rings are cool!!!!
