On my count the updated scores (both rounds combined) are as follows:

Brio - 11
R_G - 10
Lensky and French Fried - 7
Captain Sam and Hip Hop - 6
Eauz - 5
Demo - 4
Ultrabra - 0

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

[R_G]

Godstud will not be repeating....

Certainly hard series to call, but I'm feeling:

Phoenix Coyotes in 6

New York Rangers in 6

[Captain Sam]

NJD vs. NYR = NJD in 7
LAK vs. PHX = LAK in 5

[Lensky1917]

Lensky and French Fried - 7

Ties are not acceptable! I fucking hate them!

Also not happy that the Devils are playing on the Ranger's turf.

[Brio]

Do you per chance have a sister?

[Lensky1917]

Do you per chance have a sister?

What a odd and random question. Why do you ask?

[Brio]

You've never heard the saying "A tie is like kissing your sister"?

[Lensky1917]

You've never heard the saying "A tie is like kissing your sister"?

Oh, right.

I have no idea why people say that, and how they would even know.

[Eauz]

Los Angeles = 6

New Jersey = 7

[R_G]

Love the opposite picks of mine.

I guess Brio is the only one with the luxury to make my picks.

[Eauz]

In the regular season, LA/PHO were tied, but they went into a few OT's, which could have gone either way. LA has had a harder path to take but has done it in less time, so they are more rested and able to deal with PHO.

NJ/NYR have tied in the regular season. However, I give Jersey the edge just because the Rangers have gone to two game 7's against an 8th & 7th seed. If you are the top team, you've got to dominate and they just haven't done that.

[Brio]

LA vs Phoenix - LA in 6
New York vs NJ - NJ in 6

As R_G says this round is a hard one to pick, but I'm going big or going home.

[Demosthenes]

Sorry guys, I've barely been on-site lately.

LA in 5
NY in 6.

Not that it matters. Thanks to Brio for picking up the slack.

[Brio]

Not that it matters.

There's still the race for top Missourian hockey picker.

[R_G]

So we got 6 people playing?

And seemingly if I get both my picks right I win?

Nice. I'm liking this.


Anyway, I should tell you all that the lowest seed to ever win the Cup was a 5th seed.


So the odds that both the Yotes and Rangers lose? Like 1%?

Enjoy.

[hip hop bunny hop]

Coyotes in 7.
Devils in 7.

[FrenchFried]

Kings in 7, Devils in 5 !

[Lensky1917]

I'm flattered that so many people are copying my picks.

Course I don't want to remain tied with FrenchFried.

[R_G]

Pretty sure Hip Hop and French Fried are disqualified from picking the Kings/Yotes series.

Since....ya know, Game 1 has already been played in full...


That said, seems like I'll win the Rangers pick anywho so....yeah...

[Demosthenes]

I picked mine during the Phoenix game with LA having taken a 2-0 lead.

Its not like this is for money, and I already had given players in the first round a 1 game forgiveness.

I mean... there are only six people otherwise... 5 if you don't count me...

I really don't think its going to change that much
