Updating now. Also, here's a fun stat for you folks.
The Kings are 0-1 in the Finals. The Devils? 3-0. Chew on that one. =P

Re: NHL Playoff Predictions: 2011-12 Edition

The lucky folks who went 2-0 and thus receive 2000 credits for going perfect in round 3:
Mike Weedmark
Bluearrowll
Plan_Bsk81127
igotrhythm
flashpantss
Kibblre
All_That_Chaz

As well, anyone who is 7-7 still has a chance to be grand champion.
Here's how. As you guys have been doing so (minus one), you pick the winner, as well as the amount of games they will win in.
The grand champion is the person with the best record, with the game count being the tiebreaker (note: the game tiebreaker only comes into effect when you picked the CORRECT team).
If there is a still a tie after that, the winner will be based off of total credits won during this event. (or I can do random.org is that works better).

Also, sup guys. Basement right here!

And because I don't want LA to win and whenever I pick the Western team these playoffs, they lose:
(6) New Jersey Devils vs. (8) Los Angeles Kings in 6 games.

EDIT: Sorry to double post. Felt this deserved it's own post.

The Kings won't need 6 games to take out the Devils. Go Kings go!

Re: NHL Playoff Predictions: 2011-12 Edition

Since I need to specify number of games, I'll say Devils in 6.

STANLEY CUP FINAL:
(6) New Jersey Devils vs. (8) Los Angeles Kings in 6

Just going for them because i'm a huge fan, and how can I not root for them in the finals.

But I don't really care who wins the cup, would be nice to see LA win it, but would be a nice retirement present for Brodeur, and a good gift for the young captain as well as the red hot rookie. (Parise, Henrique)

Re: NHL Playoff Predictions: 2011-12 Edition

Quick and the rest of the Kings have been playing out of their damn minds this entire playoffs.

Brodeur has already won a few (three, I think?), but the Rangers have showed that the Devils have a hard time hanging on to momentum. You know it's bad when you see an oxygen tank next to the Gatorade pitcher, as was the case on the Rangers' bench last night.

Going to go with Kings in six.

Re: NHL Playoff Predictions: 2011-12 Edition

Will the Kings be too Quick for Brodeur? Will the tricky Zidlicky continue to fuel the Devils Powerplay? Will Stanley Cup Playoffs experience give the Devils the Greene edge, or will it be the LA Kings that will have Stoll the show? If Game 6 of the NYR-NJD series was any indicator, we'll need to see a magnifique Henrique or Ilya Kovalchuking the puck into the net if the Devils are to take it all, otherwise I dought yt and think the Kings road success give them the edge. This series should promise to be longer than Ponikarovsky's name. The 12-2 record LA has in the playoffs means nothing in the SCF. Just ask Ottawa Senators of 2007..

Having said that,

My call is the New Jersey Devils will defeat the Los Angeles Kings in 6 games at the Staples Center.

And now anyone with 7-7 is officially playing for 2nd haha.

Maybe I can still get first.

Re: NHL Playoff Predictions: 2011-12 Edition

Pika, it's because you and Terry picked opposite teams that Mike made that statement. One of you is guaranteed to finish 9-6, and the number of games will come in as the tiebreaker if Plan picks something other than six games.

I see what you did there.

[T-Force]

Re: NHL Playoff Predictions: 2011-12 Edition

Yep. With blue and pika now picking opposite teams, the only folks left fighting for the trophy are those two and Plan_B (assuming he picks).

Also, expect a lot more Spon Cons this round (and hopefully I don't go broke).
Especially if we hit overtime.
