Template:Playoffs

The instructions and examples for using this template are located below.

Additional Notes
If the series ends before 7 games have occurred, the remaining parameters may be left out and the result will be the absence of those unnecessary games in the table. Leaving, where   is equal to the game number, will remove that line from the template, except for in the case of games 1 and 2. For the games ending in overtime, you may enter in just the final overtime period number in the  parameter. The scoring can either be reported with the parameter that looks like, for a complete game summary, or the parameter that looks like   for a period-by-period scoring summary. Entering in the scoring parameter will supersede the period scoring parameter. In either case, only the first parameters (either  or , where   is the game number) are required to display the summary. In the both parameters, the first number is the game number. The second number in the scoring parameter is the team number. The second and third numbers in the period scoring parameter are the period number (4 signifies any overtime period) and the team number respectively. To display goalie stats using the  parameter, one of the scoring summary parameters is required. To switch who has home ice for any game, enter the parameter, where   is equal to the game number. Then, the parameter just needs to be set equal to the team number that has home ice for the given game.

Also, any of the following parameters are also completely optional ( represents the game number):
