Dude... that guy, if he can pull this off for several years, might just become my favorite player of all time.

I have never, EVER seen someone who can skate like he can. I don't even have a catchy adjective to describe it, he literally strikes me dumb. Stick handling? Dangling? I'd put him against every dangler in the NHL today and have full confidence he'd come within the top 5. Shot? Right on the money. Heart, will, determination? Yes, yes, and yes.

Not even being a homer, but if I made a team right now, he'd be my first pick. Not only out of players today, but out of every player of all time.

I even typically shun or even dislike offensive defensemen. With the exception of Phil Housley and Paul Coffee, I haven't a good word to say about any of them. But PK blows my mind.



I'd lay odds that if PK scores some big goals vs New York that we get some racist tweets from fans. I just know it's coming.

Yeah but ones from NY(with all their "sophisticated" fans) will be funnier.

How unfortunate for the Habs. Lost their goalie-prime for the NYR series.
But I NEVER underestimate the Canadiens... ever. Rangers in six.
Some people need to reimagine their thinking.

Given that my 1,3,6, and 15 seeds are left, and given that my #15 is about to lose to my #1 seed, it is obvious that I misunderstood the rules, and rated my teams in the inverse order............

Yep, that's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Racing season started, I've been insanely busy. Plus I dunno what to say, watching these bums roll over the Habs. I pretty much gave up hope after Price was knocked out.

A NY vs LA Cup? Might as well watch baseball =p

I'm jealous anytime someone mentions "relaxing" or having a dinner that doesn't consist of bologna sandwiches and water ;)

Finsrule has this thing all wrapped up now, doesn't he?

Is it now just a battle for The Mighty Ducks box set? =)

I haven't done the totals, but I would be shocked if there was anyone with a more pathetic total than mine. However, I am unable to watch 3/4 of the stuff I have now, so I will be passing on the nice offer, should I be the 'biggest loser'.

No worries. Neither you nor anyone else has to come up with unique reasons you may not want it. I'll just go up the list once it's posted until someone takes it. A simple "No thanks" will suffice =)

And seeing who, if anyone, to send it to is the only reason I'll come back to this thread. Hockey season is over. Until next year, Go Leafs.

I had planned on doing the same if I had pulled off the comeback.
I picked LA to win it all, I wonder what their odds where at the beginning of playoffs.

Not quite sure what you mean here? More of a break down, do you mean?

Only reason I didn't put in a full table is that editing a full table on the forum is a royal pain in the buttocks, and I wanted to show the winner as soon as I could.

I made a table converter a while ago to deal with this. Works with tab delimited fields. Copy and paste your excel table and see if it works.

Thank you cess for offering up a pretty cool game, one that I proved completely inept at. I will now cross hockey off my list of sports I know anything about.

Face, Since it is now official, I hereby am passing on your offer of the D2 series to the biggest loser. You may now approach the penultimate biggest loser, which appears to be the esteemed creator of this very game.

Could it be that his $25 gift offering is returned to him via a nice DVD collection ?
