Last year winner was hobbit, let's see if he can do it again (copy pasted from last year thread ) Here's how it works: We give a rank to each teams from 1 to 16 16 = the team you think has the best chance to win the Stanley Cup 15 = the team you think has the 2nd best chance to win the Stanley Cup ... 1 = the team you think has no chance to win the first round After each round, you are awarded points using the rank you gave to the winning teams 1st round = rank x 1pts 2nd round = rank x 2pts 3rd round = rank x 4pts final round = rank x 8pts Example: I give Chicago a rank of 14 and they lose in the 3rd round. 1st round = 14 x 1 = 14 pts 2nd round = 14 x 2 = 28 pts 3rd round = 0 pts final round = 0 pts So Chicago gave me 42pts. We do this with every team and add up all the points. You can post your picks here or send them to me by PM if you don't want everyone to copy you before playoffs starts. I will post everyone's picks together when the playoffs begins. You have until Wednesday April 13 (until the first game starts) to send me your picks or make changes to them. Let's try to get every hockey fan in this pool. The more the merrier! Here is the NHL playoffs tree to help you with your choices. http://www.nhl.com/ice/stanleycup.htm?season=20152016&round=pst Good luck to everyone!!

Here's how it works: We give a rank to each teams from 1 to 16 16 = the team you think has the best chance to win the Stanley Cup 15 = the team you think has the 2nd best chance to win the Stanley Cup ... 1 = the team you think has no chance to win the first round After each round, you are awarded points using the rank you gave to the winning teams 1st round = rank * 1pts 2nd round = rank * 2pts 3rd round = rank * 4pts final round = rank * 8pts Example: I give Chicago a rank of 14 and they lose in the 3rd round. 1st round = 14 x 1 = 14 pts 2nd round = 14 x 2 = 28 pts 3rd round = 0 pts final round = 0 pts So Chicago gave me 42pts.

Okey so i thought i do a lot better first post of this topic. But i have a lot busy days. So i only do shorter version of my orginal post idea! Here you can find all trohpy winners of last season (2013-2014) http://www.nhl.com/ice/newsindex.htm?location=/awards/2014&pg=1 Latest trades http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=723471&navid=nhl:topheads Biggest trade in my eyes was that my hero Scott Harnell was traded to Columbus I think biggest draft surprise was Neal trade. Wow i think that was error and PIT not get back as much they gave New contracts http://www.capgeek.com/index.php Biggest surprise was see how little was Gaborik new cap hit © I was so happy when i hear that Kimmo Timonen sign new contract. I so hope to see him in Wild uniform but im happy he continue his career. Contract was very small but that was his way to help team to get better team. So tomorrow starts free agent market. I was plan to start better topic but because i was busy last week and in weekend i get tooth inflame and fever i only post players who i hope Wild Sign. I add only Free agents in list. I think my team need 1-2 Forward and 1-2 Defender Forwards top 5 1. Jussi Jokinen. (LW) Its my first choice and my biggest free agent wish. I will be very happy if we get Jokinen. It will be feel like important stanley cup playoffs win when you get player who you waited to join you team so long and who is one of favorite players. 2. Saku Koivu © We not need center in our team so much as winger but i love Saku Koivu. He is my biggest idol in NHL at the moment (when Niittymäki retired and Nummelin play in Europe) Big leader who not decided yet if he continue his career. I will be so so happy if i can see him in Wild and so so happy too if he decided go play in Montreal. Thats why he is number two spot in my list, because i hope more that he go to Montreal and retired his career there. 3. Zenon Konopka © he is hero of me. Big idol for me. Old Wild Player 4. Ales Hemsky (RW) he is good player and can help us a lot. Not see him often but his stats in career are very good 5. Mike Cammalleri (LW) not know him so well but always get good stats where he ever play. I think he stay in Calgary + Brad Richards is very good player and if he want play in winger i be happy to see him in my team. + Jarome Iginla Not know him well but lately i hear that he talk with Wild. I can accept him to my team. Will be good addition to our club. But not my first wish. Who i not want - Thomas Vanek I not like him. He is too irregular - Matt Moulson not so good when he came in our team in trade deadline. Was disappointment for me - Milan Michalek too irregular Defenders top 5 In first i must say that defender markets are very poor. No (very)good defenders in free now but we need at least one good defender and i hope to see some trade. In forwards we not need trade because there is good free agents and we have decent forwards. 1. Nick Schultz i know that he is not best free agent defender. But i saw him a lot when he played in Wild before and i like him a lot. Plus we need good defending defender 2. Andrej Meszaros Know him well when he played in Tampa bay sametime as my biggest Idol Niittymäki and watched him too when he played in Philadelphia. He is little bit irregular. He can play very good season or poor season. But still we can get good value for him and he can play great season after not so good season. 3. Sami Salo old Veteran but he can give us good second pair with Scandella. I know him well and only big injury history drop him to 3rd place in my list.Will be very good addition in our powerplay and he has big shot 4. Dan Boyle old veteran but he can give us good second pair with Scandella. But Boyle must be ready to take 2-3 milj deal. Not know him so well because saw only couple game when he played SJ with Niittymäki. 5. Clayton Stoner. I must take him to my list. He is Wild player but free agent at the moment. I really really hope that we re-sign him. We need someone who can defence our players. Who i not want/wish - Matt Niskanen too big chance that he is only one season star. He was number one defender because PIT has so many injuries. After Wild told that Harding and Bäcström both are healty when next season start, i not want that we take goalies in free agent market. So my biggest wish in goalie situation is that we keep our current goalies Bäckström and Harding. They both are good goalies who can win Cup for us and Vezina too. So this is my dream team for next season (added only free agents, ofcourse if i can make my all time dream team i take a lot different players example Hartnell, Timonen, Couturier and St. Louis) I underline free agents J. Jokinen M. Koivu E. Haula or A. Hemsky Z. Parise M.Granlund J. Pomminville N. Niederraiter S. Koivu A. Hemsky or E. Haula K. Brodziak Z. Konopka M. Cooke R. Suter J. Brodin M. Scandella A. Meszaros C. Stoner N. Schultz Bäckström or Harding in goal. They are even good in my view I drop out this player for our last season group Forwards C. Coyle we can trade him and get someone good defender J. Fontaine D. Heatley is free agent now C. McCormick we can keep him for 13 forward M. Moulson he is free agent now M. Rupp J. Zucker we can give him chance if we not take Hemsky or Jokinen Defenders K. Ballard N. Prosser we can keep him in 7 defender (he is free agent) J. Spurgeon we can trade him with Coyle that we keep one good defender Goalies Iljya Bryzgalov he is free agent now J. Curry D. Kuemper we can keep him for our third goalie spot he is RFA Explanations = F|A members teams von Rantala = Minnesota Wild, Pepsi and D..X = Toronto Maple Leafs, Zigzag = Ottawa, Sl@yer = Calgary GermanKilla = Colorado Thundercats and Cicione = Chicago, LA Kings Fan = Los Angeles ©, Mathieu and RefL3x:> = Montreal, Yomero, Jaymee = Pittsburgh, NHL leading team (L) Applicants teams: Meow = San Jose and Philadelphia

Mine is Minnesota Wild. Not glory yet, but waiting! This season this far made hope, but Mikko Koivu´s injury kind of cut off that.

When we waiting new season and when i miss hockey so so much i start send last season videos here. You cant believe how much i miss Wild hockey. I HATE when i must wait Wild games. So i will add in this topic one Wild moment, one last season top 10 playes of the week and one of my favorite videos. Sometimes i can add two top 10 playes of the week like now in this first post, and when new season start you can see new top 10 playes of the week videos under this topic. Im really hope to see you favorite hockey moments videos or last season favorite moments so you are more than welcome to send hockey videos Maybe that way we can relief our hockey yearn. Its impossible say only one favorite moment from last season. Maybe one is when we win Colorado in game seven. I think thats maybe best game what i ever see in NHL. I think last season most beautiful goal was Granlund Goal agaist Colorado in game 3. Its one most beautiful goals ever what i saw. I think my Top 1 place is for my Idol Mikko Koivu goal what i add later but this was last season most beautiful goal and one of most beautiful goals what i never saw. So in first post i add two Week 1 top 10 videos Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VI2r_m7LamU NHL Week 1 Top 10 Goals http://video.nhl.com/videocenter/console?id=456700&catid=17 I like more beautiful saves than goal so my favorite top 10 is always saves.
