CanadianContent NHL Playoff Pool

Pick a C, 2-W's, and 2-D's by Wednesday 11pm Eastern. The same individual players can be selected by everyone but don't pick the exact 5-player roster that someone has selected already. I will attempt to put everything onto an excel spreadsheet and post results from time to time.

You can have a maximum of 1 "A" and 1 "B" player on your team. If a player's team does not make the playoffs you can re-draft for that player.

Note, this thread will be locked to slections on Wed 11pm EST (if I'm not hit by a truck in the meantime).

And, just cuz I want to, my goalie is Patrick Roy. :P

What do I win, btw? An all expense paid vacation to the nearest McDonalds?

Winner gets a golf lesson from Zoof.

Golf? No no and no ... I want chocolate. Don't make me throw a tantrum! Best would be having Zoof peel those little chocolate footballs and feed them to me while wearing a pirate outfit. Oh oh! And maybe you could fan me with a palm leaf for good measure?

Failing that, I'd settle for new Fluevogs!

We can arrange all that. But first Zoof has to get his butt in here and pick his team, or else no pirate football feeding for him.

This is a shameless time-sensitive bump. Pick 5 players for the playoff pool. The more who join in the better.

I'm in!!

My picks:

Jason Spezza
Daniel Alfredsson
Justin Williams
Nicklas Lidstrom
Sergei Zubov

I'm surprised there aren't any hockey fans around here.

I thought playoffs started today. It's Friday. So of course if anyone wants in they can do so over the couple of days.

Bump! Kreskin, I will continue to shamelessly spam the other forums to tell our CC folks to make their picks.

Sports fans make me worry.

What, are you only interested in politics as blood sport? Come on Jay, join us knuckledragging, low class hockey fans & pick your team! :P

Absolutely...if I'm going to go for a blood sport it will be one that removes lefties hands from my wallet.

I'm wish I could help out but I pay so little attention to sports that I can't even make an educated guess, other than to say it will break out into a fight, and I would put my money on the stupid big guy is going to win it.

There are no wrong picks. It's pretty much luck and just makes it a little more fun.

If we don't have more signed up by this evening we'll shelve this idea.

Results to end of April 26



Cosmo, Mr Zidlicki didn't make it to the playoffs. If wish you can select another deadbeat, I mean player.

Thanks. I'll go with Pronger since I feel sorry for him for having such a goofy name.

Revised - end of April 26

OILERS!

Can I still pick a team?

Here's mine:

Jason Spezza
Dany Heatley
Jerome Iginla
Dion Phaneuf
Wade Redden

Go Flames & Senators!!

Down with the Flames and Senators!! :P

Cut off was last friday.
