I'll do the red Xs again but if you can include in your posts formatting In the same order like my prediction here it would be helpful. And add a goals scored in the first round for 5 points a hail mary prediction worth 25 points for cup winning team in X games. Avs in 5 Blues in 6 Flames in 4 Oilers in 5 Panthers in 5 Lightning in 6 Hurricanes in 4 Rangers in 7 Goals scored: 294 Cup final: Oilers in 5 I'll do the RNG, but if anybody has an animal or toddler intelligent enough to point at pictures, that would be an acceptable submission as well. DJExile starts at -2 because his team abbreviations gave me an aneurysm. Powershift fucked around with this message at 20:24 on Apr 30, 2022 |

Dawn of the final day: 24 hours remain. I'll do a check for mistakes once everyone is in, but if you see one let me know and i'll correct it. Here's where we stand now. If someone picked the Preds, stars, capitals, and Leafs in 4, they could build an insurmountable lead if the teams they're facing all encountered various catastrophes.

The die is a madman.  I had to usurp some "flames in 6 space" to preserve the framing of the spreadsheet. Eric the Mauve posted:If you all want I can ask my 5 year old nephew for his picks tomorrow. He's a big Auston Matthews fan so he'll pick the Leafs to win the Cup. That would be cool, see who can predict hockey worse than a literal 5 year old. Hopefully sportsnet does another insiders predictions so we can see who can predict better than a literal Elliotte Friedman Powershift fucked around with this message at 05:32 on May 2, 2022 |

ThinkTank posted:I forgot to put a number of games on my Blues/Wild series but I meant Blues in seven. I don't think my intention was to call a four game sweep by the Blues "the best series of the first round." Preeeeeeeeeeeeeeeettty pretty convenient to only bring it up once the Blues finally lose  I'ved move it but i ultimately don't think it's going to matter after seeing their last game.

Eric the Mauve posted:I can't keep this buried deep down inside my soul any longer........ there are actually two Rs in "Hurricanes". Woah, when did this become the spelling bee thread. We're at 259 goals scored already with between 7 and 14 games left. If all 7 leaders win their next game, we will match last year's game total. The last year with 7 6+ game series was 2010 When Detroit, Montreal, Vancouver, Chicago, San Jose, and Philadelphia all won their playoff series. Buffalo, New Jersey, Ottawa, and Phoenix were knocked out in the first round. The last time Toronto won a playoff round in fewer than 7 games was April 2001. Since then, the Ipod was both launched, and discontinued. e: lot of missing guesses here, so for points i'll do 3 for dead on, 2 for closest, 1 for the two above and below the closest. Blue arrow is the current count.

DO YALL WANT A BOXC posted:e: never mind lol I figured but you might still get a point out of it. There are enough missing guesses in that category, i think I'll score it 3 points for dead on, 2 for closest, 1 each for second closest. The hail mary is also missing a bunch of guesses and most of them are either Avs in 6, so maybe 5 points for dead on? I don't want to give too much weight to something people missed. My idea for points: Round 1: 4-3-2-1 for 32 possible points Round 2: 6-5-4-3 for 24 possible points Round 3: 8-7-6-5 for 16 possible points Final: 10-9-8-7 for 10 possible points. It weights the rounds a little better without putting too many into a single series or penalizing early success. Any objections/suggestions? e: some fun for our players who haven't got a team wrong yet. The teams they picked, bold is a game 7 pick.  The 5 year old has 4 X-less predictions but is currently without a point goldrush, GuavaMoment Mind_Taker, and The Black Stones have three X-less predictions 11 people are fully Xed, but not pointless fisting by many's panthers in 4 guess is missing from the Red Xs but has been correctly placed and accounted for in the spreadsheet.

fermun posted:Powershift is running it all and is still without a zero, huh? Very suspicious. What do you have on the NHL refs? I'm holding their glasses and whistles hostage unless they give me red X points. Also, despite guessing 6 correct series winners so far, i'm still losing to 11 people who haven't. I also have only 5 potential points left to score e: Only clean ayers act can surpass Cocaine Bear if both Penguins and Flames win Koopa Kid and Darude can tie him if both the Penguins and Flames win Powershift fucked around with this message at 06:25 on May 15, 2022 |

OldSenileGuy posted:How many goals have been scored? I need to know how many goals can be scored tomorrow and still have me win the bonus points 316, so you would need 1 goal tomorrow to be the closest. between 2 games, it seems unlikely. Unless 9 goals are scored, you're the second closest. fermun posted:bonus points are mine, old man! Unless 7 goals are scored between the two games. in which case you would only get 1. If exactly 5 goals total are scored, you get 3 points though Powershift fucked around with this message at 06:39 on May 15, 2022 |

 For the second round please include somewhere in your post the predictions in this format including the total penalty minutes assessed in the second round including game misconducts and such. This will be determined by dumping the nhl stats sheet to spreadsheet and summing the column, subtracting the first rounds numbers. Avalanche in 5 Oilers in 6 Panthers in 7 Rangers in 6 PIM: 269

Misanthrope posted:I'm surprised at some of the low PIMs guesses... a game that gets out of control can easily exceed 100 PIM. I might have started low putting low numbers into people’s heads, and it feels like a dick move to change it. In the First round there were over 1200. The dirtiest team in the playoffs which was of course the maple leafs had 134 all on their own.

Quite possibly the only solo Green box this year unless the Rangers come back and then sweep the lightning, because if the rangers make the ECF i'm putting them in 4.
