Carp14 picked Nylander, not Matthews.

Sorry @kanadalainen, it's hard to decipher some of your descriptions:

Ram air intake nose guy

I didn't want to assume what exactly you meant...
Thanks! My apologies, that was indeed an ambiguous descriptor.

The following will hopefully make all clear.

Fig. 1 Austin Matthews (ram air intake resting mode).

Fig. 2. Austin Matthews - intake partially activated

Fig. 3 - Austin Matthews -post game, but intake activated.

I know my bizarre excursions are sometimes obtuse, and will simply name the player by their actual names in all future matches. :)

Fig. 4 Ram Air intake fully realized through hundreds of thousands of years of natural selection pressure. Someday all the best hockey forwards will feature this adaptive trick.

I made a few errors last night in tabulating the Prediction Contest standings, and they have now been fixed. Please check your guesses from last night's game to make sure that I have given you the correct amount of points... I am sorry for the problems this has caused...

Please don't apologize, you do amazing work.


Jets 3 - Toronto Maple Leafs 2

Kyle Connor scores the first one.

You are correct @nobody imp0rtant, @Carp14 did pick Nylander. I will adjust the stats... Thanks for pointing that out, although I don't think Carp14 will be happy...:sarcasm:
I'm sure that should he/she end up winning, they'll be happy there isn't a big asterisk beside their name like there is for all those Cup champions that cheated using the LTIR loophole. :laugh:
