thx
copy and paste error

[Champ]

Hey, Warden

Are you going to make a ranking ladder for this?

Anyway the leafs play tonight...i'll be getting more pts

Champ 8)

[Warden]

I dont think we need a ladder for it. It will be simple points collecting. Also will show who got more knowledge (ahem ahem) in hockey.....

[Warden]

NAS killed my prediction DET in 4. Now its minimum in 5.

[StrikeThree]

Ahh.. noticed this too late...


Oh Well

My Predictions Anyways ( I know I won't be in it)

Detroit in 6
SJ in 5
Vancouver in 6
Colorado in 4

Lightning in 7
Devils in 7
Bruins in 6
Sens in 7

[GoYanks016]

I dont think we need a ladder for it. It will be simple points collecting. Also will show who got more knowledge (ahem ahem) in hockey.....

Do we have to collect the points ourselfs?

Because I don't get the scoring system

[Champ]

Yeah i don't get the scoring system either, but i know my picks are looking good :wink: (except Stl :evil: bums...overpaid bums, SJ is out playing them)

[Warden]

Point system as follows: 1st Rd: 1pt team, 2pt games(correct team), 2nd Rd: 2pt team, 2pt games, 3rd Rd: 4pt team, 2pt games, 4th Rd: 8pt team, 2pt games.

So lets say someone predicted DET going to second round by winning in 5 and it does happen. This person will get 1 point for correct team and 2 points for correct ammount of games.

Every next round will give you more points for team as its harder to predict this far.

I will calculate all points after each round.

[NYR29]

NAS killed my prediction DET in 4. Now its minimum in 5.

And with Tonites SHUTOUT it's six go Preds!!!!!

[Champ]

Nsh screwed me over too, and i think travis green's little slash will screw me over aswell (i wanted mtl to win i picked bos in 7). Oh well kovalev shouldn't of let up...

Champ 8)

[Warden]

agreed, with this mistake he basicaly let down his previos effort.

[Champ]

Yeah and he was having a good game too...

Champ 8)

[Warden]

With Sj advancing to the Secopnd round we got 2 members who gained first points.

[Champ]

:cry: ...i hope mtl wins one more game, oh and toronto is w/o mats and joe...oh no that means nick antropov will be our top centre...Nooooo...oh well i guess we still have francis, we'll pull it out with a patched up line up just like we did a few years ago.

Champ 8)

[Warden]

One game left in first round.

Only GoYanks can get maximum points out of TOR vs OTT game since no one else predicter OTT vs TOR series to go to 7th game. So he got chanse to pull 4 points from one game while some may get just one.

[_43_]

well I tanked the first round

is that to big?

[GoYanks016]

As soon as someone gets 18, I'm eliminated :(

[Warden]

well I tanked the first round

is that to big?

yea, its 800, need to bee 600

[GoYanks016]

PS2 is better than XBOX!!!! :wink:

I'm glad Toronto won (I get the points,) and now the Flyers can have an easy 2nd round opponent.

[Warden]

After first round

GoYanks016: Total PTS: 10.
DevilDude26: Total PTS: 9.
Champ: Total PTS 8.
Warden: Total PTS: 7.
_43_: Total PTS: 5.


Congrats to GoYanks - he got 6 teams right along with 2 correct series results.

Second round coming......

[_43_]

if you need anything Ill be in the basement

[Champ]

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

253-26-0-16

[Warden]

Looks like Colorado digging deep...... :P

[_43_]

am I mathematically eliminated yet?

[Warden]

you will get at least 2 points for either TOR or PHI. And if it will be PHI you can get extra points for round 3.

[Player1175]

I'm a mite late but my Stanley Cup prediction is :
San Jose vs Tampa Bay

and the winner will be.....
*trumpets play*
Tampa Bay Lightning in 6!

But i'm usually wrong with my predictions.

[GoYanks016]

I'm wondering if I'm done yet.. :?:

Oh, and who is 43 anyway?

[GoYanks016]

I never got my free t-shirt for winning this..

[SteelcityboyakaAc1d]

lol the poor guy won and he dont even get his prize haha

[SixDavies]

I dunno WTF this thread is about or whats going on in here but my prediction will be....

New Jersey Devils vs Detroit Red Wings
Devils in 5
