[Dalagaze]

I am so not a homer.

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

So how many others picked the Rangers to win the SCF?

I have them losing to the Sharks.

 

[Inferno]

i'm an eternal optimist.

Rangers over Blues in the Finals.

 

[KenGuru]

i'm an eternal optimist.

Rangers over Blues in the Finals.

just like me

I also think there will be a surprise in Dallas vs. Anaheim and Detroit vs. Boston in 1 st. round.

 

[SKS]

I am not likely to win this. But as an eternal optimist I have Rangers beating Avs in SCF - I really appreciate you setting this up, Inferno. And great price Kreiderman!!! Much appreciated, and calls for some good fun when rangers are not playing as well.

 

[Zucc36]

Projected first round winners:

Boston

Anaheim
San Jose

Really?

My picks:
RedWings, Bolts, Pens, Rangers
Blues, Avalance, Ducks, Sharks

 

[GordonGecko]

Have my picks all set, it's gonna be one hell of a Stanley Cup Finals series

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Wow that St. Louis B-Hawks Series.

A really good team is going to be out in the first. Best matchup of the first round for sure.

I picked St. Louis in 7. I think they finally get over the hump. Really tough pick though.

 

[WVULax22]

I'm in

 

[Thirty One]

My bracket:

 

[Idlerlee]

I'm happy to report that I've forseen how the Stanley cup will play out

 

[QJL]

I'm happy to report that I've forseen how the Stanley cup will play out

My bracket exactly except the Kings beat the Sharks and Anaheim and Montreal beats Tampa.

 

[Blue777]

No, I'm not a homer.

 

[Inferno]

mines attached...

 

[Kakko]

I'm far less optimistic

 

[Joey Bones]

I'm in. Thanks for doing this Inferno.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Really?

My picks:
RedWings, Bolts, Pens, Rangers
Blues, Avalance, Ducks, Sharks

that was a projection from before the matchups were set

 

[Fitzy]

I'll take Bruins over Hawks in the finals. NYR beat Pitt but lose to Boston in the Conference Finals.

LA and NYR to conference finals are long shots, but there isn't much point picking a bracket that 50 other people will have.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

I'll take Bruins over Hawks in the finals. NYR beat Pitt but lose to Boston in the Conference Finals.

LA and NYR to conference finals are long shots, but there isn't much point picking a bracket that 50 other people will have.

My first bracket had LA making it to the finals. I have since changed my mind about that, but I'm only allowing myself one revision in case I got it right the first time I don't want to end up kicking myself in the ass.

That said, I'm feeling confident going with the Ducks to make the finals. Beating Chicago in the WCF.

 

[Boruto]

This is an internal struggle of homerism and winning a challenge.

 

[Gardner McKay]

I got to this:

Anaheim over Boston in the final
Pittsburgh and Colorado to CF
New York, Tampa, Chicago and San Jose to the second round

I have Boston over SJ in the Cup Final.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

I was a total homer for this one but I have us losing to Boston in the CF and the Bruins winning over Anaheim.
