He Shoots! He Scores! COINTEST. Second cointest - See post 110

[+seekerfamily]

a great night tonight for hockey! for one thing, the NBA has the night off, so no basketball games. however, most importantly, there is an NHL GAME 7! who doesn't love the excitement of "win or the season is over"?! true sudden death! there is also a game 6 being played tonight!

 

its too bad that both hockey games will be played at about the same time. who the heck schedules these games?! they couldn't have an early game and then a late game?! too difficult for NHL to do this? really NHL?! and you wonder why fan interest is down?! really?! c'mon NHL...let the fans watch more live hockey games without having to TIVO one, IF they have a recorder! you've got a great product...promote it properly!

 

1 game 7 is over and we will have another Friday night.

 

Congratulations to Montreal - Knocked out the Washington Capitals and now the Pittsburgh Penguins.

[+seekerfamily]

The Montreal Canadiens do it again. Moving on to the Eastern Conference Finals.

The last Semifinal game will be decided on Friday night as the Philadelphia Flyers force a game seven against the Boston Bruins.

The Montreal Canadiens win in seven games over the Pittsburgh Penguins (goodbye Penguins and Mellon Arena) has affected a lot of the cointestants in the second cointest as only 2 people picked Montreal to win - both also got a bonus. Many have picked the pens to win it all. Congrats to Odyssey Voyager and nggrfan on the Montreal picks.

 

If Philadelphia wins - only 3 have picked them to beat Boston.

 

1. Odyssey Voyager - 5 points

2. SgtMikal - 3 points

2. ngrrfan - 3 points

3. Gatoulis - 2 points

3. LadyBee4T - 2 points

When Philadelphia wins over Boston - 3 cointestants got the series winner (SgtMikal, Gatoulis, and fossillady). Gatoulis gets a bonus point for picking Philadelphia in 7 games.

 

Only 1 cointestant has Montreal or Philadelphia advancing to the Stanley Cup Finals so there will not be many more points from the eastern playoffs.

I do not remember my guesses at all, but I am sure that I guessed that Chicago will go to the finals!

 

Of course I didn't expect (I think!) that the series will go 4-0!!! WOW!!

 

Well... till now I am quite happy with my guesses! ... and I thought they were wild ones!

 

For a guy who doesn't know the teams a lot, can not watch the games and is from a country that hockey is not well known..... I think I am going great!

Sorry we were out today and just got back. Looks like Chicago is the first team to advance to the finals.

Now to check everyone's predictions.

[+seekerfamily]

Four cointestants picked Chicago to win the western conference - SgtMikal, Gatoulis, Odyssey Voyager, and TommyTrojan360. No one picked any team to sweep any series so no bonus points in this round. Only 1 cointestand has Philadelphia or Montreal advancing to the cup finals so this will be decided on how Chicago does in the cup finals.

 

1. Odyssey Voyager - 6 points

2. SgtMikal - 5 points

2. Gatoulis - 5 points

3. ngrrfan - 3 points

Thanks so much for the fun cointest, seekerfamily. After my Penguins were eliminated, I still got to enjoy watching San Jose advance. And now that the Sharks are dead in the water, having had their tails thrashed by the Hawks...I officially say GO HAWKS!!!

 

Sorry Philly Phans, but that much orange is only good for hunting season here in Pennsylvania. B'sides, Da 'Burgh is still THE City of Champions, n'at!

Hey, YY...I've been saying for quitre some time now that the Stanley Cup would be maintaining its Pennsylvania residency status this year, but that he would be moving to the other side of the state. Take solace in the fact that it will still be nearby! Now, got get yourself Flyered Up!!!
