Not even surprised Winnipeg won a spot. 50% of the time I ran a lottery they popped up. Heck, I had a streak of them winning 1st like 4 times in a row.

Wow, TB went hard. Once again I'm questioning the wisdom of me picking a team that hasn't won a series in 20 years before this winning another.

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

Holy shit, Caps are really hurting from this suspension. Plus Holtby just had a bad time.

Shots are 44 to 22 for Washington and Pittsburgh is up 3-1...ok

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

I went through and the worst record I believe belonged to Im Vince, who went 2-6.

So hooray for being complete shit!!!!

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

So? Last year Tampa outshot Detroit 46-14 and still lost 3-2.

Also looks like Pitt is looking at a few suspensions of their own. Washington's got a golden opportunity to make this a best of 3 series.

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

Tampa scores with 38 seconds left, and we're off to OT in Brooklyn!

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

And Tampa gets the winner. Whee.

Meanwhile in PIT-WSH, Kris Letang is going to go to an in-person hearing for his late, high hit on Marcus Johansson, which means a suspension of more than 5 games is on the table. This will nicely counteract Brooks Orpik's three-game ban.

Also, turns out there's a strict 0.6 second time window between releasing the puck and getting hit before it's considered late. Orpik's hit was more than a second after the fact, making it "excessively late" while Letang's was 0.03 seconds too slow. That, and Johansson was able to keep playing, which will probably spell a ban of 1 or 2 games. (Spoiler alert: It was only 1 game.)

Regardless, Letang is a very important piece of the Penguins defense. The Capitals must seize this opportunity.

The left one being my team

Hype

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

You do know they announced Letang had a 1 game suspension earlier yesterday afternoon, right?

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

Damn, Penguins up 3-1. Could this be the year Crosby finally gets another ring?

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

That could be cool, except not to the expense of Ovi's =P

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

I'm so pissed off. Washington HAD to take this game since Pitt was lacking one of their top defensemen. Now they have to find a way to win Game 5 without Orpik, who's on the last game of his suspension.

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

so laaaaaaaaaaame

Re: 15/16 NHL Playoff Pick'em/Discussion
 

Pretty sad how now my predictions look pretty decent.
