meow Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 (edited) The season ends tonight (Sunday) and we still don't know all the playoffs match-ups yet but let's get ready anyway!! Last years winners 2017: Letdown 2016: Lefty 2015: Hobbit (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 *INSERT STARTING DATE OF PLAYOFFS* (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. (Wait until Monday to have the real match-ups) https://www.nhl.com/stanley-cup-playoffs/ Good luck to everyone!!

Helsen Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 @Sisje: no time to even begin :). Working, and preparing for the trip to California. Will be fun if I can watch the Avs match(es) on US television there somewhere. Or any other match even. Too bad I am quite far away from it, or I might have attended the SJS vs AD match on the 18th 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobbit Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Haven't really followed the NHL much this season, especially not the final 1/3, so probably will have some picks terribly wrong 16. Preds 15.

von Rantala Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 16. Minnesota 15. Nashville 14. Tampa 13. Boston 12. Pittsburgh 11. Vegas 10. Anaheim 9. Columbus 8. Washington 7. Torono 6. Winnipeg 5. Los Angeles 4. San Jose 3. New Jersey 2. Philadelphia 1. Colorado I think that serie between Minnesota and Nashville will decide who will the cup. Also i think game against Winnipeg will go to game seven and Wild will win it. Wild vs Winnipeg will be probably best serie in whole playoffs and its already happen in the first round. I dont like current format a lot, because now two of NHL best teams in regular season are in same side and can see already in the second round and from Pasific teams can get walk thourgh a lot easier schedule. Wild is without number one and number two D-mans. Ryan Suter is one of league best d-mans and Spurgeon has been great, some time of season even better than Suter. It will be big test against Nashville to play without Suter, his skill is needed more in offensive side than in D-zone. But otherhand Pits did win Cup without Letang. So its possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
