NHL Board Playoff Pool V 4.0.1

[beantownmaniac]

Anybody else drop 21 places in the standings in the past week?

Actually, I think I've gone up, but losing Ovechkin and Backstrom pretty much killed any hope of finishing in the top 10. Picking a couple of Ducks players didn't help the cause.

I'm darned close...

 

[Eddie_Shack]

I actually did pretty well... then I lost Green, Backstrom, and OV. Something tells me Franzen, Lidstrom, and Datsyuk might be on their way out soon too.

 

[beantownmaniac]

I really didn't look at the scoring system, just picked some players I thought would make the conference finals (which is why picking Ducks players was a mistake). Next year I'm going to do the same thing I do for fantasy football.


Edit: I'm 13th, so it isn't all that bad considering it's my first time playing this type of pool.

with bigger rosters, you generally pick your final 4 teams.
something like this, I think you've got to pick 2 finalists.

I'm new to this

note: those aren't hard and fast rules.
just what I generally go by.

 

[pixburgher66]

Well, I just need Vancouver to go to the Finals. Yep.

If Boston doesn't collapse, I should win this thing for the 2nd time in 3 years.

Sorry Rob.

 

[dare2be]

You lucked big time with the Caps sucking so bad. That is gonna be the difference. Just pick it already

I'll pick the avatar eventually...gonna make you squirm as long as possible though over what it might be

Chara could get hungry and eat St. Louis and Stamkos and then be out indefinitely with indigestion.

You never know

Not squirming at all buddy. I'm in 11th and have a chance to crack the op 10 before it's all done. Not bad for my first time playing this type of pool. Maybe you'll give me a chance at revenge and play the fantasy football league? I finished 2nd in that in my first time playing FF and probably would have won had I not lost 3 or 4 starters right before the playoffs.

I'm all for giving you a chance at revenge, but definitely not fantasy football. Too much goddam work for this lazy ass.

 

[dare2be]

BTM, so what would have been my avatar had you won?

I can't tell you in case I get revenge.

Actually, fantasy football is the easiest fantasy of the 4 major sports, that's why I play it. You're only setting your roster for 1 game a week, unlike hockey, basketball, and especially baseball. I might give hockey a try next year. I think it's cool because you're the owner, GM, and coach of the team.
