How do you figure?  Based on this rule:

"You will receive 7 points for each goal the team you put on the 7 slot scores, 6 points for each goal in the 6 slot, etc"

I have:
6 goals X the 7 Slot = 42 points for Hip Hop
+
2 goals X the 1 Slot =  2 points for Hip Hop
Total:  44 points.

And, with the Senators beating the Sabres 4-2, the totals are now:

Hip Hop  56
Country & Rock  28
Pop   48

And now the Tampa-Atlanta game has gone final.  Updated scores are: 

Hip Hop   76
Country & Rock  75
Pop   81

Sorry for the typo. Should have been 32. You had them in the 5 slot not the 7

With only the Minn-Van game left I have it as:
67 Pop
71 Rock and Country
78 Hip Hop

I think you guys got messed up, Calgary scored 6 goals, not Chicago.  Chicago only had 2 goals.

If Minn scores 3 or less Pop votes.  4 or more if depends on what Vancouver does.

Minnesota would only need 4 goals to tie for Pop, as they gain a point on Rock and country each time Minnesota scores. They as gain 3 points on Hip Hop, so if Minnesota scores 4 the game gets interesting. Of course, Pop loses the tiebreaker to both Rock and Country, which Rock would beat Country on. So, Rock is the only team guaranteed to be safe at this point since they cannot lose to country.

Also, the only way Hip Hop can lose at this point is for Minnesota to score at least five and Vancouver to not score again since Vancouver has already score 1. In that scenario, Pop would pass both Rock and Country. Therefore, it is impossible for Rock or country to get the clues. 

If Minnesota beats Vancouver by 4 goals or more, then Pop gets the clues and Hip Hop votes. If Minnesota scores at least 5 but does not beat Vancouver by four, then Hip Hop wins and Country votes. If Minnesota scores less than five, Hip Hop wins and Pop votes.

Interesting that Hip Hop has never finished 2nd or 3rd.  Always first (three times) or last (four times).

So Pop 73
Rock and Country 76
Hip Hop 91

In the reverse Country always finished 2 or 3, never 1 or 4

Agree with the numbers above, pop votes today by 5. Hip hop gets idol clues. Today's action coming soon.
