Higgins 3,618 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 VHL NHL PO R1 PRD STND MS Ahh the glory days where #1 seed plays #8 and then re-seed each round... please bring it back Gerry Bettman. The Toronto Maple Leafs and San Jose Sharks have been eliminated from the playoffs, which is truly devastating for me. I am a yuge hockey fan though so I continue to watch the playoffs, but I find myself not rooting for any teams yet. Although I am starting to lean towards cheering for the Nashville Predators to win the cup. The ultimate Montreal troll with PK Subban raising the cup. On the flip side I definitely do not want the Pittsburgh Penguins to win, they beat my boys Joe Thornton and Patty Marleau last year in the finals which pissed me off. I live in Nova Scotia the home of Sidney Crosby, who I think is the best player in the world, but it was extra annoying because all local media and people were cheering for Crosby and the Penguins to win. So I am cheering for a Washington - Nashville final as of right now, but really I don't have a yuge interest and just want some good OT hockey with hopefully some game 7's this round please. There is TPE on the line here too. Now I find myself hoping for the teams I predicted in the VHL NHL Playoff Predictions threads to win so I can get more TPE and have my name enshrined in glory. This round I predicted Nashville and Anaheim to win the western conference and Washington and New York to win the eastern conference in a mix of 6 or 7 games each series. This seemed to be a pretty popular set of picks, which won't help me in the standings because I'm far behind the leader after round 1 so I may need to make underdog picks to regain any ground. Go big or go home. Ottawa in 4 anyone? Half way through this media spot and all I have done is talk about the NHL playoffs, which I could probably talk about all day. So let's switch to the NBA playoffs. Last night the Toronto Raptors actually won a game 6, but not before almost blowing their 25 point lead, they ended up winning by 3 points so now they play LeBron James and Cleveland and Toronto will take the L like champs. A few trends in the VHL NHL Playoff Predictions thread for round one to keep your interest in my NBA talk. A total of 53 people submitted predictions for Round 1! 2 People (3.8%) picked Toronto over Washington Washington won in 6. @Phil & @STZ 2 People (3.8%) picked Nashville over Chicago Nashville won in 4. @Devise & @Jericho 4 People (7.5%) picked 6 of the 8 series winners @Laflamme, @Corco, @Fowll & @Bushitroll Okay back to the court, this is pretty outlandish, but I really think that the finals this season will be Golden State vs. Cleveland. Don't @ me. Here's the overall standings. Remember there is still plenty of time to catch the #1 spot and move up the rankings because there is still 7 series to go! Lots of points!

DollarAndADream 3,356 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I'm so disappointed that I missed the Round 2 predictions. Didn't see it. I blame VHL for not putting a notification at the top of the site. NUCK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUCK 151 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Middle of the pack but I think picking PTS to take home the cup will redeem me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gudnason 607 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Nice MS. I'm surprised I have 52 points given the fact I don't give a shit about the NHL anymore and have stopped watching/following it for a good five years at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushito 1,945 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Oh yeah, should also mention that the last 4-5 people that posted second round predictions were after the start of the first game deadline. VOID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
