All my predictions looking terrible except maybe Tampa in 5. Shameful stuff. (I will probably have a few series winners but the games are really off too).

I probably should have paid attention to the Kings icing a D corps consisting of Doughty, Phaneuf, and 4 randomly-selected fans

I figured they'd probably be able to tread water until Muzzin got back, and then Doughty got suspended and yeah. Still, they looked good last night outside of the final 5 minutes. They've basically lost three coin flips in a row here. It's highly unlikely they come back, but hey they've done it before.

Updated sheet. A lot of people, myself included, should feel ashamed for doubting God's chosen team, the Vegas Golden Knights.

Also, if the Press, Lightning and Jets all go to 6+ games, there is going be a bloodbath of red.

I will gladly take my Red X for doubting VGK. I had originally picked them in 7 and changed it to LA thinking they'd run out of steam.

As of the end of the Avs/Preds series, does this mean I win the bracket challenge



Jackets in 7 is looking like my biggest opportunity to miss in the first round. I've gotten every other series winner thus far.

I haven't gotten a series result wrong yet but I was off on the number of games. I correctly predicted Pens in 6, Tampa in 5, but Toronto in 6 can't happen and Washington in 7 may not happen.

In the West I got all the results correct but was wrong in every series on the number of games.

Toronto is probably gonna ruin my perfect series winner record in r1 though because I rather doubt they come back and beat Boston in 7. Caps in 7 feels a lot more likely.
