NHL 2012: Playoffs! Pick Your Overtime Winners!

Re: NHL 2012: Playoffs! Pick Your Overtime Winners!

Only two posters (of 12, because 4 didn't submit any picks) correctly guessed that the Kings would win the Blues-Kings series and no one picked a sweep.

With that result known, UMBlackBear43 moves into first and pardonme jumps from T-8 to 3rd. pardonme is also the only poster to pick the Devils over the Flyers, so he could continue to climb. However, he failed to submit a pick for the Coyotes-Predators series and that could hurt (although a Phoenix in 5 scenario hurts him least).

UMBlackBear43 was one of two to pick the Capitals over the Rangers, so his lead could certainly continue to grow.

Kepler struggled the most last round, correctly predicting only one series and only gaining five points from the Western Conference Quarterfinals. Based on how the Conference Semifinals have gone so far, there could be some more dreadful scores this round, setting up a limp to the finish line atmosphere.

I wonder if they'll make a go of the Desert, or if Jamison has the same movement clause that the Supersonics had... Perform a "good faith" effort in the desert, and then move it wherever the hell you want.

Which, coincidentally, may be Seattle.

Man am I ever tired of mediocre goalies playing out of their mind against the Rangers. If they're lucky enough to get past the Caps, the Devils would really have them in trouble if they went with Hedberg.

Or Brodeur, I guess.

Fix is in anyways. His highness Gary wants Ovie in Round 3.

The amount of leeway that these teams are getting to play the body is not even remotely comparable.
 
Re: NHL 2012: Playoffs! Pick Your Overtime Winners!

No call for cross-checking Kreider in the back though of course.
 
Re: NHL 2012: Playoffs! Pick Your Overtime Winners!

How are the Caps getting away with absolutely everything here? A hold, a trip, it doesn't matter.
 
Re: NHL 2012: Playoffs! Pick Your Overtime Winners!

And that's twice this series Alzner has gotten away with covering the puck right around his net. Sure, make a call with 20 seconds left though.

Wow you're such a whiner. You even complain about the call that allows the Rangers to tie it up and go into overtime on the pp. *** dude.
 
Re: NHL 2012: Playoffs! Pick Your Overtime Winners!

Seriously. Isn't there some Rangers board you can go circle jerk in while wearing your tin foil?

Because the calls this series have been blatantly skewed. What about Ovechkin not getting suspended for leaving his feet on that hit last game? Torres threw practically the exact same hit last series and got 25 games!
 
Re: NHL 2012: Playoffs! Pick Your Overtime Winners!

I guess this isn't the thread where we guess the winners? It's only for whining and complaining about whiners?

Gaborik / Ward

Hate hate hate the jumping on the puck in the defensive zone, but whatever the Rangers scored.

Excuse me if I laugh my *** off about that comparison. Less than a second before ovie's hit he was looking at the puck in his skate. Did he jump? Yes, but if you honestly think he planned to take him out then you're an idiot. He protected himself albeit in an illegal way. But I wouldn't expect you to have any rational thoughts about it.

I feel bad for the fans of other teams in the same league as your favorite college team. I can't imagine how they can put up with this whining for a full season.
