The objective of the Promotion is to accumulate the most points by correctly selecting the "winning team" for each of the fifteen (15) hockey Series in connection with the Playoffs by completing each of the four (4) Round's brackets ("Brackets").

Each bracket consists of the top three divisional qualifiers and one of the wild cards. The lower seeded wild card plays against the division winner with the best record while the other wild card plays against the other division winner, and both wild cards are de facto No.
