Template parameters

  • RD1, RD2, RD3, RD4 — [OPTIONAL] The names of each respective round. Defaults to "Conference Quarterfinals", "Conference Semifinals", "Conference Finals", and "Stanley Cup Final", respectively.
  • group1, group2 — [OPTIONAL] The name of the first group of eight team, and the name of the last group of eight. Defaults to "Eastern Conference" and "Western Conference" respectively.
  • The rest of the parameters fill in the bracket and consists of the form X-YZ where
    • X is the specific round
    • Y is either the team's seed, name, or score
    • Z is the specific placement on the bracket, counting from top to bottom.
  • Please note that this is not technically a bracket as the teams are re-seeded after the first round so that the highest ranking team always plays the lowest. For this reason, and to conform to the standard format on the NHL's web site, the teams are not laid out the way they would be for a basketball or football bracket. The first pairing is always 1 and 8, second is always 2 and 7, and so on.
