a false posted:

i gave 22 as a guess for how many goals would be in an average series because some series will be short and then i multiplied that by 13. i don't think that's too crazy

that is way low probably, even with every game being a sweep that is only 5.5 goals per game.

I thought I'd be the only one to unabashedly homer the Habs winning the cup. Glad to see I'm in good company. I'll submit my picks later

Edit: so do the Avs count as an "expansion team of the 90's"?

lol people who don't pick their team to get swept out in the first round

e: i just read the op and how stickarts is posting from his phone, whatever happened to the stickarts who got super drunk walking along the river drinking a spiked double gulp with me who swore he would never own a mobile phone?

Yea we're definitely out in the sticks here in TAQB. I note with some e-displeasure NBA's pick'em gets SAS proper. Which is to say, meh.

this thread probably could have stuck around in the main forum but you requested to move it here so

i would keep the points the same as they are because constantly changing things as the playoffs go along just gets confusing

Yea all Rangers picks after the game are getting switched to Habs. Same games unless I hear otherwise.

i don't think it is really a problem leaving the people who picked the rangers after the first game as it is really as long as they didn't pick a sweep for the rangers or something since there was only like 12 hours to make the picks between the end of the kings/ducks and beginning of the habs/rangers. maybe just give them a deduction of however many points instead?

Drunk Canuck, Kreez, and Hand Knit have been with LA since day 1.

Literally every single person who chose NYR did it due to homer picks. Outstanding!

i chose new york to make the finals before the playoffs started and it wasn't a homer pick :colbert:

Stickarts posted:

There are :lol: 2 people not yet eliminated with total goals. It has been a high scoring playoffs no doubt - 88 gp, 492 g = 5.6 goals per game. Even so, a 10% reduction to ~5 gpg would still have only left 9 people in the running. Considering mentholmoose's prediction of 495 mathematically is impossible, :siren: darkwolf220 :siren: is locked in as the winner of that category!

i had a slightly higher amount of goals and then changed my mind, but i think that was still under the current total lol. the main reason though wasn't just that it's been high scoring but also a lot of series went deep. i think i did my calculation expecting less than 88 games for the whole playoffs

I had both the conference and cup finalists down before the season :2bong: though I thought Montreal would be way better in the regular season than they ended up being

i spent like 2 minutes doing my preseason picks and have no memory at all of what any of them were
