I picked the Leafs to make the finals cuz I figured I'll be the only one who's right if they get there.
Ain't that the truth. :laugh:

But I don't trust the Laffs to be able to even get out of the first round.

The bolts may not be what they were in 2018 but they'll be fresh for at least Round 1 and I think with Vasilevski in net, they will once again deny the Laffs from getting past the first round yet again.

Made a 2nd bracket just in case my first really is lost in glitchworld. Heart picks all the way.

Yeah my brain says the Leafs are clearly the better team this year, and with Matthews/Marner/Tavares/Nylander firing on all cylinders, this should be the season where they put a run together. But my heart knows they're gonna choke. Went with brain over heart for the bracket, we'll see how it goes.

Good lord I can’t believe how much effort I put into getting my terrible bracket in.

I didn’t even think about how many goals were scored in the finals, I just threw a number in there because it was the first time that came up after I entered the bracket. (After at least 6 tries.)

How is everyones bracket looking? Got VGK and DAL correct, but also lost sure points in CAR. Still chance for full points from NJ, TOR and EDM.

I also chose Bruins to sweep the Panthers. About that.. :laugh:

So are we going to Cancel this entire thing now or did someone actually pick the Panthers to beat the Bruins? I think a lot of us had the Bruins winning the cup.

I didn’t do the bracket. Like I said, I never have before.

But I got 5 of the 8 series winners right. I was dead accurate on both our series, the Winnipeg/Vegas series and LA/Edmonton down to the exact games played. I might have picked Dallas over Minnesota in 6. Can’t remember if I picked that to go 6 or 7, but definitely picked Dallas to win.

Two of my three blemishes were the obvious in Florida and Seattle. I think most people struck out on those.

The Islanders over the Canes in 7 was not one of my prouder moments. Thought Carolina would get Sorokin’d.

I didn’t put a ton of effort in to this but I’m really kicking myself for inexplicably picking the Jets.

I regretted pretty much immediately and now that some of my reached worked out I wish I didn’t screw that up.

I would have never picked Seattle though.

Not into bitter coffee? Don’t enjoy wearing flannel and worshipping Neil Young? What is wrong with you?
