Re: WCHA Pick-em

I struggle myself to pick Tech losses.

Fortunately it's not been a problem

Agreed, the toughest games to pick are those involving the team you cheer for.

Can't really argue, when I have been using that strategy myself, lol.

Re: WCHA Pick-em

Just pick UAH and LSSU to lose each week and you're mostly guaranteed points. Sorry Geoff and Laker Dude

Re: WCHA Pick-em

I'll try it. If it's anything like my fantasy football league it'll take all my abilities to stay out of last place.

Re: WCHA Pick-em

Count me in - I'll give it a go this year!

Any chance we could start a new thread for the new season? Or do we like having the history of prior years in the same thread? Just an idea.

Yes, I will create a new thread when I post the schedule for the first week of picks.

I'd say new thread when it starts up.

Re: WCHA Pick-em

I think the fact that your team was in a position to win the regular season title, is a good trade-off for missing the picks the last week.

I still salty the only reason I missed it was I was riding to the games that weekend in Mankato. I wasn't even driving. I had plenty of time to do it!

Re: WCHA Pick-em

In as well. I'll even acknowledge the existence of the last week this year! Provided I'm not road tripping to wherever we play the last week and don't forgot again

Re: WCHA Pick-em

I'd like to try. Will you post rules, scoring etc? Thanks.

The rules for scoring are as follows:

2 points for correctly picking a win or tie.
1 point for a game that ends in a tie.
0 points for each incorrect pick.

Since the WCHA does not use shootouts, you can pick ties for games this year. If you pick a tie, you will get 2 points if the game ends in a tie, and 0 if the game does not.

I'll try and get this up and running each Sunday. The first non-conference games are on Friday, October 9th, so I post the first weeks games on Sunday. I'll try and score each week ASAP, but it will depend on available time.
