Doesn't mean a thing obviously, but statistically 8 of 28 is still pretty good.

Obviously we know that not every team has an equal chance of winning the Cup in any given year (i.e., a one seed usually has higher odds of winning than an eight seed), but from a pure statistical perspective, that means the first overall seed has won better than 1 in 4 Cups, when their odds on a randomized basis would be 1 in 16.

I think Jarmo and JD should get a pass this year, the Jackets have been decimated by injuries. All we need is just a little patience.
