NCAA Men's Hockey Tournament 2011: Bracket Challenge

Haven't gotten enough bracketology yet? Has your March Madness basketball bracket crashed and burned? Here's another chance to score big!
This year, Something's Bruin is partnering up with our sister site, Sieves the Day, to bring you our first ever bracket challenge.
HOW TO PLAY:
1. Download yourself a copy of this bracket. Fill it out. Boom.
2. Make sure you're following both @something_bruin and @sievestheday on twitter.
3. Tweet your bracket at us, along with your pick for tournament MVP.
4. Profit!

POINTS SYSTEM:
You're awarded:
1 point for correctly selecting a winning team in the first round
2 points for second round teams
4 points for third round teams (Frozen 4 round)
8 points for correctly selecting the champion
+10 for a completely correct Frozen 4 selection
+10 for correct pick of the Tourney MVP
DOUBLE POINTS FOR UPSETS. For example, if you select Air Force and they beat Yale in the first round, since AF was a 16-seed and Yale was a 1, you get two points instead of one.
PRIZES:
First place wins a pair of tickets to the first home game of the 2011 season, college hockey team of their choice.
Second place wins a t-shirt, college hockey team of their choice.
Also infinite bragging rights! So get picking!
