TetRefine Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) I'm surprised no one has started this yet, considering the playoffs begin tomorrow. Are we still doing the prize for a free GA Premium Membership? Anyway, I've won it twice in a row (2010 and 2011) so I figured I'd start the 2013 one. The seeds for the first round are as follows...Eastern Conference(1) Pittsburg Penguins vs. (8) New York Islanders(2) Montreal Canadians vs. (7) Ottawa Senators(3) Washington Capitals vs. (6) New York Rangers(4) Boston Bruins vs. (5) Toronto Maple LeafsWestern Conference(1) Chicago Black Hawks vs. (8) Minnesota Wild(2) Anaheim Ducks vs. (7) Detroit Red Wings(3) Vancouver Canucks vs. (6) San Jose Sharks(4) St. Louis Blues vs. (5) Los Angeles Kings Edited April 30, 2013 by TetRefine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Administrator wildone Posted April 30, 2013 Site Administrator Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) Sorry Matt, Usually I kick in my own money to run the pool. Due to unforeseen circumstances I can't really afford to put up the money for the Premium Subscription this year . This year will be just for bragging rights I guess With that said, here are my picks: Round 1: Pittsburgh, Ottawa, Washington, Boston Chicago, Anaheim, Vancouver, LA Round 2: Pittsburgh, Washington Chicago, Anaheim Division Finals: Pittsburgh Chicago Stanley Cup Final: Pittsburgh Penguins P.S. I'm going to move this to the Sports Bar with a trail back to the Lounge Edited April 30, 2013 by wildone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TetRefine Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 Is it too late to enter? I don't think so. Steve usually keeps it open until after 2 games have been played in each series in the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krista Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 You suck Steven - that's why I lose. But I'll accept those picks, of course. Now maybe if someone would stop focusing so much on the hockey players' sticks... and how they oil them.. and more on the game, I might have better picks.

BlueSoxSWJ Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) I'm trying to find sympathy for a team getting eliminated on a shit penalty call in overtime, but it's the Canucks, so I can't find any. Bye bye Canucks. And then there were 15 ... Bye bye Habs. And then there were 14 ... Bye bye Wild. And then there were 13 ... Bye bye Blues. And then there were 12 ... Bye bye Islanders. And then there were 11 ... Bye bye Ducks. And then there were 10 ... Bye bye Leafs. And then there were 9 ... Bye bye Caps. And then there were 8 ... Bye bye Sens. And then there were 7 ... Bye bye Rangers. And then there were 6 ... Bye bye Sharks. And then there were 5 ... Bye bye Wings. And then there were 4 ... Bye bye Pens. And then there were 3 ... Bye bye Kings.
