Welcome to week 4 of the Steemit Fantasy Hockey League (SFHL)!
For those of you that haven't been following our progress closely, this league is intended as a proof of concept for how the Steem block chain and Steemit posts can be used to fuel fantasy hockey leagues. To provide incentives for participation throughout the season, post rewards are added to the league prize pool, to be distributed at the end of the year.
Nobody has paid to join this league, yet all team managers will get something at the end of the year.
This is an interactive post previewing the upcoming matches.
Here at SFHL, we're huge fans of 
We welcome the participation of the entire community.
How it works:
Upvote the main post, and one winner per match up.
- To be an eligible voter, users must have a minimum reputation of 40 (league players are exempt from this requirement, as several are new users).
- Voting on more than one team in a single match will void all of your votes for the week.
- Only votes cast before the start of the first game will be considered.
- SP rewards from the main post will be added to the prize pool to furnish prizes at the end of the year.
- Liquid Steem and SBD rewards will be split 50/50 between winning team managers and the voters who chose the correct team.
- The liquid Steem rewards will be exchanged for SBD and held as SBD through the week until payout.
These are the Matchups for Week 4 of the Steemit Fantasy Hockey League:
