Wow, I went from being in the bottom 20 to being in the top 20 - moved up over 300 spots. Nice

Looks like bunch of Nashville picks weren't counted.

Edit: scratch that, they were still counted.

Don't think that would be possible anyways as I have it calculating things automatically.. what did you think was happening?

Some of that is definitely due to lower turnout in the 2nd round but good job nonetheless haha! You had a great 2nd round coming in second place.

Nothing would make me happier than seeing the Penguins humiliated by the Senators but I think they're going to get by them and then lose to either Nashville or Anaheim

This guy has a perfect bracket (#games excluded) through round 1 and round 2:
https://bracketchallenge.nhl.com/brackets/106819

I was using # games as a requirement for perfect brackets but even excluding them, we don't have any.

To compare, 3 HF users have picked 10 of 12 teams correctly:
Hellraising Senator
olli
Muh

Both missed one pick per round.

These users picked the winners of all 4 2nd round series correctly:
SensNation613
deathtouchtrample
starling
Adele Dazeem
Nakawick
RixDRW
Z-Diddy

No users picked all 1st round winners correctly (though several, including the above, got 7 of 8).

Damn, I'm badass.

Pens in 6
Preds in 6

Lets go Preds! My preseason cup bet is holding strong.

Puck drop is on 9 pm EST on Friday so make sure to get your picks in by then.

So far, about 60 picks for the conference finals.

Ottawa Senators. They have a good shot at lasting late into the second round and maybe even making the 3rd round.

Calgary and Toronto have no chance of winning even 1 round.
Montreal I have losing to the Rangers.
Edmonton I think will beat San Jose but they'll get taken out quickly by the Ducks in round 2.

this guy should win something

Not exactly sure but I think I picked Pens in 6 and Preds in 7. Doesn't matter at all, though. In this game, I suck more than a new-technology vacuum cleaner.

Why? Those predictions weren't exactly mind blowing and the Oilers weren't quickly eliminated.

true, and due to the thousands of submissions on nhl.com someone inevitably gets all 4 rounds correctly, sometimes even with the # of games in round 1. No one to my knowledge however has ever predicted the entire NCAA Men's Basketball tournament bracket correctly
