2015 NHL Playoffs

@Gargantua:

No one else matters, we all know the Canucks are going to win.

Would have been a nice side story if Torts was still coaching (now that they have drawn Calgary in the 1st round).

Your trash talk is weak Gar, just like your team’s chances.

I thought that piece on Hillary Clinton was fantastically hilarious. Nearly fell over at work. My dad was having quite a chuckle while my mom was asking me who the guy who wrote it was… because she thought it was so awful and disrespectful.  :lol:

@Young:

If either the Habs, Capitals, Black Hawks, or Flames fail… my hockey pool is toast.

That is almost the way you have to play it in order to win. A balanced approach only seems to get you so far. The winners usually are decently heavy on one or two teams…. or they just pick most of the right guys in the boxes.

That is the real key, but the hardest to actually do.

Minnesota went out in the 2nd Round last year, but Zach Parise had more points than Max Pacioretty who went to the 3rd Round with Montreal. (They were choices in the same box)

It is just so hard to predict. You gotta put all your eggs in between 2 and 4 baskets I think.

And I have been so freaking busy the past 4 days that I haven’t even given a thought to my choices yet…

Let us know how you roll this year, also… is Gargantua in again?

He certainly is. His was that marvelous commentary on Hillary Clinton and the US presidential race.

Might take me an extra day to get everyone’s stuff filled out and the first update out, but you will be able to see everyone’s picks as always.

@Gargantua:

There’s no context.

Just the truth.

Yes. Pretty much.

Politics is pretty much the opposite of that, but that’s why we need Garg around.

I don’t even know why I brought her up in the Pool. Just to say that she announced her run for president, with an underlying dose of sarcasm from me.

@Young:

I’m guessing big G went heavy on the nuks, and seeing as I picked a lot of Flames… our pools pretty much hinge on that series. I doubt he picked any Sens to spit back at my face… or maybe he did, who knows.

I will let him answer that… since he hasn’t sent me his picks yet!

I have no idea what that was but that it was AWESOME!

Activate Your Steel.

So cool, yet so dirty. wink wink
