They're not going to win dude, they might make it a little bit of a series though. I could see them winning another with the way they played tonight... although I could also see LA winning in OT again.

[R_G]

At this point, it looks like R_G will finish dead last.

Nobody here bothers to compete in my fantasy football leagues and nobody here bothers to bet online.

I think losing a sports pick-em on POFO is about the least painful thing an individual can experience in life. Like somebody getting your order wrong at a fast food joint. Am I annoyed? Certainly, but the odds will fall in my favor at the end of the day.

I got kicked out of last year's pick-em so I'm 0 for 1.

Well, next time you host it, I'll join, even though I don't know anything about it. You would think that more people would join your football league, since a lot of Americans frequent this forum.

[R_G]

I'll peg you in EAUZ.

I manage one free league that usually has 2-3 team turnover, so I'll keep you in mind.

[Lensky1917]

Devils win 2-1.

On to Game 6.

I don't think I would mind the Devils winning despite me picking the Kings, because I love how much Demo hates them.

Oh, I thought you meant on PoFo, like this thread. I am sorry, but I don't have the time to manage a fantasy team.

[R_G]

Pooooo.

As for this series, if the Devils win Game 6, they win it in 7, not sure how the Kings could overcome that.

[Lensky1917]

Kings are leading 3-0 over the Devils.

Do I get anything for finishing 2nd?

Edit: Now 4-0.

So I was essentially right. 2 of the 3 home games, the Kings have definitely been running away with it.

[Lensky1917]

Kings slaughter the Devils 6-1.

That's 3 games in a row that I got right!

Oh, and congratulations to Brio.

[Nets]

Congratulations to Brio (and the Kings).

I think some of the officiating was a bit dodgy tonight, but regardless, the Kings definitely earned this.

I guess that I can find some solace in the fact that the Devils losing adds one more degree of separation between the Flyers and the Cup.

[Lensky1917]

Hmmm, Brio hasn't posted in this thread in 9 days....if he's not here to accept his victory, does that mean I win by default?

[Brio]

Congratulations to Brio (and the Kings).

Thanks. I'd like to also offer my thanks to all who participated in this year's event.

Now to claim my prize of a nice new signature made by Kflint.

Last year I got second and got nothing. However, I would like to offer my congratulations on you getting second after self admittedly not knowing anything about hockey. With 3 perfect predictions in the final two rounds (quite a feat in and of itself) you actually beat me by a point in those rounds.

Not to go all Gary Bettman on you, but I encourage you to keep yourself involved in hockey, as the sport can always use another fan.

Tying to usurp my title in my absence I see. A pox upon yee...

Yeah, the NHL has a few individual trophy awards they hand out. Maybe we should try something similar with signatures as incentive for more people to play?

Thank you.

And I'm definitely hooked on hockey now. Wish I could afford a jersey. NASCAR has just been so boring and full of shit, baseball is incredibly boring, and basketball is full of drama queens.

Can't blame a guy for trying. I thought it would motivate you into posting.

[FrenchFried]

Saddened by the fact I posted some of my predictions too late. It's my own fault however, and I congratulate both Lensky and Brio.

I will do better next year, that's a promise.

Thank you. At least you take home the bronze.

I will do better next year, that's a promise.

I intend to as well.

Anybody watching the NHL Awards on June 20th?

[Eauz]

@ Demo! I beat you and I don't even follow hockey!

[Demosthenes]

I'm never very good at this actually. I think I was near the bottom last year too.
