Not doing my pick'em game, BUT...

Thank you! Have no clue what I was thinking when making my choices but whatever.

 

[gocanes88]

I'm a little disappointed at their format change... not only is it no longer round-by-round, but you can't even pick series length past the conference quarterfinals. Because of the reseeding after the conference quarterfinals you kind of have to make it round-by-round.

 

[tomdundo]

Okay, I joined. I went with what seems fairly obvious to me, although I really do expect something out of left field to **** mine up.


I'll probably change it up soon though. Just because I can.

I like the caps to go all the way and take the cup, IF they play like they have been, and if Holtby doesn't come out looking like Peters.

Caps over Hawks in 6.

 

[Buenos Necas]

Well dang. Always enjoyed your pick'em game, was looking to defend my title this year! I guess I'll just have to settle for wining this group

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Cpaitals beat Blackhawks in the finals.

 

[What the Faulk]

Everyone's jumping on the Caps bandwagon. Still not confident they'll win more than one series.

 

[Oenatzu]

Caps are done as soon as someone manages to shut down Ovechkin again.

If only we were still allowed to make trades. Every team the Caps play would sell us the farm for Joe Corvo

 

[CanesAvs16]

I got the rangers beating the hawks

What title is this you speak of that you are defending?

 

[Buenos Necas]

It's all about the tiebreak! Managed to guess the exact number of goals scored in the series, gotta count for something

 

[SCanedinavian]

Joined and have submitted my collection of blissfully ignorant predictions. In it to win it.

 

[Novacane]

Had the Blues but backtracked. Went with the President's Trophy winner instead.

 

[tomdundo]

The two that keep bugging me are Kings/Blues and Canadiens/Senators. I've gone back and forth a few times on that.

I'll just stick with what I have now though. I have no expectations of ever being correct when picking playoffs or tournaments (as my NCAA bracket can attest to).

So far, so good.

 

[Novacane]

My bracket is pretty screwed up already. **** you Canucks.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

My bracket is pretty screwed up already. **** you Canucks.

Pretty much the same for me. And I have the Rangers to win in five games...

 

[DaveG]

feeling good about all my picks but the Rangers right now.

 

[tomdundo]

I picked the Sharks, and everything still looks possible except the unlikely event that Montreal wins that series.

That said, picking Pittsburgh to win the Stanley Cup probably wasn't the best idea with how terribly Fleury's playing.

 

[nobuddy]

Feeling good about everything except San Jose-Vancouver obviously.

 

[DaveG]

Yeah I had the Pens in the finals, right now I get the feeling it's either going to be the Caps or the Bruins, probably the Bruins.

Who knows though, Vokoun could prove to be the spark that they need to have a shot.

Hopefully for the sake of my picks that's true. If not, I'd definitely prefer to have the Caps in the finals over the Bruins, even though I have the Caps losing to the Rangers (if they'd ****ing score for once).
