 |
|
Hey All,
It's that time of year...Stanley Cup Playoffs!
2 different pools this year; feel free to enter both, either or neither.
POOL 1: CONFIDENCE POINTS
Rank the 16 playoff teams in order from the team you think will eventually win the cup (16) to the team you think is least likely to advance past the first round (1). Each round, you will accumulate the # of points for each theam that advances.
For example, if you rank Phoenix at #16 and they win the Cup, you would get 64 points (16+16+16+16). If you had New Jersey at #15, but they only won two rounds you would get 30 points (15+15).
POOL 2: ROUND-BY-ROUND SERIES PICKS
Pick the winner of each series, and the # of games per series.
Points: 1st round=2, 2nd round=4, Conference Finals=6, Cup Final=8.
1 Bonus point if you correctly pick the # of games right (only awarded if you pick the winning team).
** Make your picks one round at a time.
Any questions?
WESTERN CONFERENCE
(1) VANCOUVER vs (8 ) LOS ANGELES
(2) ST. LOUIS vs (7) SAN JOSE
(3) PHOENIX vs (6) CHICAGO
(4) DETROIT vs (5) NASHVILLE
EASTERN CONFERENCE
(1) N.Y. RANGERS vs (8 ) OTTAWA
(2) BOSTON vs (7) WASHINGTON
(3) FLORIDA vs (6) NEW JERSEY
(4) PITTSBURGH vs (5) PHILADELPHIA |

WESTERN CONFERENCE
VANCOUVER in 5 games (I hate them, but it should be a walk)
SAN JOSE in 7 games (I expect St. Louis to slip up big time)
CHICAGO in 6 games (Phoenix sucks)
DETROIT in 6 games (Hard to not pick the Wings)
EASTERN CONFERENCE
N.Y. RANGERS in 4 games (Ottawa sucks, easy sweep)
BOSTON in 5 games (will depend on which Ovi shows up, but I think Boston can easily handle it either way)
NEW JERSEY in 6 games (Jersey's always a great playoff team)
PITTSBURGH in 6 games (A tough choice, but I'll go with the Pens) |

0 for 4 thus far, wow, how bad do I suck?
I wonder if I can go 0 for 8 this round?
If it is then for the next round I'm just gonna pick the team I want to lose for the win hoping that will put the hex on them... |
