These are the only football prediction competitions I have entered. I think I have entered three Stanley Cup predictors, but did not keep track as my picks never became the Stanley Cup Champions. So 0% for those as those are, in many ways, all or nothing, which I dislike. 

Realistically having first watched the Stanley Cup Playoffs significantly enough for a reasonable prediction in 1980, as a child, my Stanley Cup Finals prediction record is 33 correct and 8 incorrect, so 33-8 which is 80.48% 

Assuredly, the prediction has changed throughout the playoffs and even in some Finals, back and forth, but I am noting my Finals predictions from what I thought before the Final began and not during.
