I keep getting an error message when following the link in the email. Am I the only one?

What email?

 

[attilatheislander]

Am I correct in believing that the qualifying rounds aren't part of the bracket challenge?

 

[TheWhiteWhale30]

I logged in, but there is no place for me to make any picks. I don’t even see a bracket lol

 

[IslesNorway]

What email?

Got an email from NHL after logging in, but it didn't seem to work. It also appears that the qualifiers aren't part of the bracket as I can't make any selections

 

[PK Cronin]

Yeah, I assume they'll release the options closer to the start date. I haven't checked to see if it includes the qualifiers.

 

[19 in a row]

Ok I am being slow on this.. signed up using my email address (said I already had an NHL ID ) .. will it let us update an ID once they make the release? Cant tell which ID is mine but assume it is one of the "undefined" ones... hopefully I figure it out.. good luck all and thanks PK.

 

[BTrotts19]

I joined the Islander league but cant get in to pick the games, hopefully they open that up in next day or two

Same.

 

[PK Cronin]

I'll post a reminder when it becomes available.

 

[19 in a row]

still nothing?

 

[PK Cronin]

still nothing?

Nope, it'll be available after the qualifiers. Bummer.

 

[ScaredStreit]

Nope, it'll be available after the qualifiers. Bummer.

Probably due to the teams playing for seeding...lame but oh well it should still be fun once it gets started.

 

[TheWhiteWhale30]

We can fill out and submit brackets now.

 

[MJF]

Good luck to all.

Good luck to all.

I submitted mine as well. Really tempted to pick Chicago to upset in the opening round.

If not for facing Robin Lehner I might have too.

But I have trouble picking teams that play no defense. You can't run and gun your way through the playoffs.

 

[IslesNorway]

put my bracket in. Went out on a limb and thought we'd get all the way to the conference finals this year.

That was ultimately the deciding factor for me too.

I did the same!

I have us going to the finals. LOL

 

[Satan'sIsland81]

I have us going to the finals. LOL

I have us winning the cup! Beat that!

 

[Doshell Propivo]

I have us winning the cup! Beat that!

Nice. I think it's entirely possible. Any of these teams are capable of getting hot and winning it all.

 

[MJF]

I have us going to the finals. LOL

I went one step further than that.
