NHL Board Playoff Pool 5.0

[Darkstone42]

If i'm not mistaken this is our 5th go around of this. The first 2 years i finished in the top 5-7 i believe. The last 2 years i have been in the bottom 5 including dead last this past season.

Yeah, i have Rinne, Weber and Suter left...

3 bottom 5's in a row, i'm like the fucking Oilers...

A lot of people sucked this year. Like me and Dare, for example.

Basically, the only difference between us is that I have Chara and you have Suter, and Chara may well be eliminated soon...

 

[beantownmaniac]

Yeah.

Damn why didn't I ask for a avi bet to avenge last year

 

[GagneFire12]

This is like 5-card draw, yeah? So we can exchange players after the first-round?

I didn't say anything about Giroux.

I bowed out before you got the chance.

/Not that I'm happy about that.

no player post update was done yesterday since there was only 1 game and I was too lazy to post totals.

player point totals from last night and tonight will go up tonight.

official team standings should probably be posted at the end of round 1.

 

[jstducky09]

player point totals for 4/21/12:

karlsson - 1.75

I made a mistake here in typing.

The correct point total for karlsson on 4/21/12 should have been 1.25. I overstated it by 0.50 points.

apologies.

 

[Slimpikins]

Sixth* from the bottom. Glad to see I wasn't the only one who loaded up on Pens and Nucks.

[dare2be]

I predict that I will end up with 180.5 total points. I wonder is that is a new record low to go along with my record high.

 

[Darkstone42]

My team was so good when the Canucks and Penguins were still in the playoffs...


And now I've lost Chara, too. I'm down to Weber and Rinne.

Put almost all of your eggs in two baskets eh?

Edit: Don't feel bad, I'm pretty much toast too.

I love toast.

 

[buffhockey]

Centers
Evgeni Malkin
Patrice Bergeron
Henrik Sedin

Wingers
Alex Burrows
James Neal
Daniel Sedin

Defense
Edler
Chara
Letang

Goalies
Tim Thomas
Mike Smith

So would be it be to much to ask for Mike Smith to get 12 shutouts of 50+ saves, a goal and a few assists?

I love toast.

Me too keny.

Yeah, in general, I like all of my eggs to be in one place so that I can find them more easily. I would have put them all in one basket, but they didn't all fit. Unfortunately, I picked low-grade baskets, both unraveled, and then the eggs fell out and onto the floor, cracking.

I had a couple other, much smaller baskets, and the smallest also unraveled.

So I have one small basket left, containing two eggs, but given my appetite, that just isn't enough for a good omelet.
