  1. Tough situation, AJ

    Maybe a reasonable compromise would be to split the series in half-

    play the first 3 or 4 games on a shitty night for you, and the rest of the series on a shitty night for Sungod.

    It sounds crazy, but that may be the way to go. That way, the whole series won't be influenced by one guy being way more tired than the other. :lol:

  2. Congrats Jrod, not only have you won, you also made me look stupid in the process. First round fodder turns into Cup Champion, shows you how much i know, maybe i oughta stop making picks so i can save face.

    LOL thanks guys B)

    The Red Wings are a machine.

    I completely forgot about your picks, AJ. But i guess it did motivate me to play harder, especially early on in the playoffs, so thanks for the incentive! :)

  3. Det(Jrod) vs VC(Buff)

    Det 3 @ Buff 2

    Det 6 @ Buff 5

    Buff 4 @ Det 6

    Buff 2 @ Det 4

    In an unexpected turn of events, human sieve Tim Chevrolet stepped up and made

    a difference in a playoff series. Instead of choking, the Detroit goalie actually made the big saves

    when it counted, shutting down Buffalo's high-powered offense.

    Detroit's lightweight and smart duo of Lidstrom and Racine teamed up on super-sniper Alex Mogilny, hardly

    allowing him any room for shots.

    For Buffalo, Dale-can't hit the side of a barn-Hawerchuk missed his usual one wide open net per game.

    Each game was either tied or within one goal at some point in the third

    period. Each game was tense and hard hitting, with lots of penalties, faceoffs and bone crushing checks.

    This series was a lot closer than the end result and could have gone much longer or even the other way.

    Congrats to VC on a successful season and bruising series.

  4. Boston(AP)-

    In an epic seven game series, the #2 seed Quebec Nordique led by FPB upset top seed Boston.

    The series was hard fought from beginning to end, with a couple of games not decided until the remaining seconds of the third period.

    After trailing 1-0 and 2-1 in the series, FPB played it smart by juggling his lines and changing his strategies. These moves led to convincing Nordique wins in games 4 and 5. A desperate Boston team had to pull off a last-second come from behind victory in gm 6 to force the final game. Game 7 was tense as expected, but Quebec controled the play and capitalized on the Bruin's mistakes.

    Without a doubt, the difference maker in this series was Gretzky, who seemed to score a timely goal whenever Quebec needed one. He cut through the hapless Bruins d-men like butter, and left Darren Puppa hanging out to dry on numerous occasions.

    Congrats to FPB on a hard fought series(and title) win. He's certain to be vying for the Stanley Cup next season.

    MVP-Gretzky(by a mile)

  5. Evidently the pressure of the GDL4 scoring race is getting to Buffalo's Alex Mogilny.

    With the league's top 3 scorer's seasons over with, Mogs had a good chance to vie for the Art Ross.

    Over the team's last 8 games, he needed to average 6 points per game to have a real shot at the trophy.

    A home and home series with basement-dweller washington seemed to be just what the doctor ordered.

    He came out flying game one in Washington, scoring 4 goals with one assist. However, Mogs missed at least 2 open nets and rang it off the post!

    In the Buffalo game, he seemed even more snake-bitten, hitting the post 2x to go with a couple more missed open nets! The final tally-3G/1A.

    For most players 9 points in 2 games is pretty good, but with 5 games remaining for the Sabres and Mogs a daunting 35 points behind league leader Jeremy Roenick, things aren't looking good.

  6. It is a fact that the reason the 1st season went so fast is cause there were only 16 teams, most of which were very active players. The people who weren't were replaced very quickly, which allowed things to move so smoothly. adding more teams is going to lower the pool of good competitive replacement options and in the end slow down the league.

    Cosign,

    Damn, well said carse

    I'm against it because i think you need to establish/solidify a core of steady coaches before worrying about expanding.

    It's true that gdl only has 8 more teams, but even with a league of that size it's a chore to get through the season ;)

  7. Ok, even tho i don't know s**t about odds, i sure as hell am impartial, seeing that i'm playing for the f**king toilet cup :angry:

    1 Pit(Carse) vs 5 Mon(Sungod)

    In spite of Teemu's break out season, go with the #1 overall team in this series

    Pit 3:2 favorite to win series

    2 Atl(Habs) vs 3 Otw(Sebe)

    This series will be close, Habs team may be beatable

    Pick 'em
