NHL 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs / Pool Prediction Thread ~ Kentona's Redemption ~
author=kentona
Toronto was supposed to win in 5 though!!
Yes - they’re SUPPPPPOSE to win...but the Leaf fans have to suffer some more PTSD before they happen to take in a Game 7. That way it will make things a LOTTTTTT more interesting and make the league some more money! I have no doubt that Toronto will take it either way by Saturday or Monday. And if they don't - WE CAN ALL LAUGH AT THEM SOME MORE!!!
- And speaking of laughter: if the Golden Knights don't happen to win tonight and blow a 3-1 series to the Wild, I'M GOING TO BE LAUGHING TOO!!!
(Hahahahahaha... *sigh*)
NHL 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs / Pool Prediction Thread ~ Kentona's Redemption ~
Playoff Update:
Last night, the Carolina Hurricanes punched their ticket into the second round by defeating those pesky Nashville Predators in 6 Games. They will now play the defending Stanley Cup Champions, the Tampa Bay Lightning, in Round Two.
Kentona’s perfect streak of four straight FINALLY comes to an end, as he only manages to get the 2 Points this time around. But because the Hurricanes are his Stanley Cup Pick - those points are then doubled to 4 Points total! So, in some small way, the streak of getting constant 4 point results continue!
Meanwhile, Kory_Toombs and UPRC also receive 2 Points for picking the Hurricanes as well. And Addit doesn’t come away completely empty-handed as he manages to savage himself A Single Point for predicting that the series would go to six.
With two more series left to go in the First Round before the Second Round commences, Kentona’s lead over the competition now extends to 10 while Kory_Toombs and UPRC are still deadlocked with each other in second place.

Geez, louise, I expected Kentona to do well this year but…lol - NOT THIS WELL!!! He’s got four perfect thus far and only one wrong; at this rate he’ll destroy everybody before the second round even begins, lol!
That’s why the next few days is going to determine a LOOTTTT of things:
If Toronto can win tonight against Montreal and close out the series, Kory can pick up 8 Points and give himself a chance to dethrone Kentona for first place as he’ll only be down by 4 points in the standings. A Toronto win also puts me more in the hole than I already am. (Great...)
Of course, a Carolina win of any type would strengthen Kentona’s gargantuan lead and put him in pretty good shape going forward.
UPRC still has Colorado in the next round, so there’s still a chance that he could come back.
As for me, I think my whole pool basically rides on whether Vegas doesn’t choke against the Wild on Friday and blow a 3-1 series lead or not. If they do - I basically have no chance.
This...actually could be Kentona's year. (...Finally!)
I mean, there's still lots of hockey left and all, but - if he keeps this up, this actually might be his year!

Playoff Update:
In one of two series clinching games last night, the New York Islanders scored three unanswered goals to win the game and take out the Pittsburgh Penguins in 6 Games as they defeat the Penguins - once again - for the second time in three years. They will now play the Boston Bruins in Round Two.
Kentona is the only one who managed to pick the Islanders in this series – and the correct number of games too, once again – to earn himself another 4 Points in the standings. Addit manages to salvage A Single Point for predicting that the series would go six.
And in the other series clinching game, the Tampa Bay Lightning continue to defend their last year’s Stanley Cup title by taking out the Florida Panthers on home ice in 6 Games as the Spencer Knight shows, abruptly, comes to an end for the Panthers.
Three participants, amazingly, managed to score a perfect four as Kentona, Kory_Toombs and UPRC all pick up 4 Points in the standings for voting for the Lightning in six. Addit doesn’t come away empty handed either as he also earns himself 2 Points for picking the Lightning.
With now a 4-1 record in the playoffs thus far - and now a fourth straight perfect - Kentona’s lead over Kory_Toombs and UPRC has now doubled to 8 while Addit continues to lag behind the rest with a messily 5 points, now 11 points back of the lead.

Playoff Update:
The Winnipeg Jets, after a gruelling triple-overtime finish, finish off the Edmonton Oilers in a stunner as they prove all of the pundits wrong and defeat them in a 4 Game Sweep: the first in modern Jets history!
Unfortunately though, nobody picked the Jets in this one and nobody was even close in regards to the series being a sweep, so nobody gets any points this time around.
And thus, with the Oilers loss, the last two participants, Kentona and Kory_Toombs, FINALLY managed to get a blemish on their perfect records up to this point, and the Brackcellent Award goes unclaimed for yet another year...

God damn it, Vegas! You had one job and you blew it!!! Now watch those pesky Wild come back and win both Game 6 and 7 to knock your asses back to the golf course. (I could have REEAALLLLY used those 8 Points tonight! Just sayin!!!)
- This guy does though, lol!

Edmonton Oilers. I have no words.

Well...on the plus side of things - at least you're a perfect 2-0 in the pool thus far and currently in the lead! (...For now.) So that's something! And, you never know, the Oilers could always come back from the hole that they dug themselves into and win the whole thing. (...Not bloody likely, but who knows!)
And I'm hoping that the Golden Knights can wrap up their series tonight against those pesky Wild and give me those precious 8 Points as that will rocket me back into a tie with Kentona for first! Regardless of whether the Lightning and the Jets win tonight, it won't change anything in the standings as we all either get 2 Points for the Lightning winning or nothing for the Jets winning. So, go Vegas go!!!

Playoff Update:
The St. Louis Blues are the first team to be eliminated in this year’s NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs as they are taken care of easily by the Colorado Avalanche in a 4 Game Sweep!
Everybody managed to pick the Colorado Avalanche in this one and receive 2 Points each in the standings. Kentona, who managed to successfully predict the sweep, earns himself an extra two for 4 Points total while UPRC also picks up an additional two for 4 Points because the Colorado Avalanche are his Stanley Cup Pick and, henceforth, receives double the points for it.
Also today, the Boston Bruins, despite a couple of close calls in this series, managed to defeat the Washington Capitals in 5 Games and move on to the second round for the fourth straight year while the Capitals have managed to lose three straight years in the 1st Round since their Stanley Cup Finals win in 2018 (ugh).
Only two participants happened to pick the Bruins in this one, as Kentona and Kory_Toombs both pick up 2 Points each for predicting that the Bruins would win the series, but it’s Kentona who manages to earn the extra two for 4 Points total for predicting that the series would go five.
The redemption of Kentona starts out strong thus far with him out to a 4 Point lead over Kory_Toombs and UPRC who are both battling it out for second. Addit, last year’s champion, is currently in last place with 6 Points behind Kentona.

LMAO!!! The Oilers are just trash, man!
What the hell, they were up 4-2 in the 3rd Period with about 8 minutes left to go and they STILL LOST!!?!?!? They even outshot the Jets as well and still managed to blow it! This team is done.
Sooo…how much of that whisky do you still have left there, Kentona? Lol.
It may be too late for you to join in this round, but you can still join in the second round and still participate in the pool if you want. You can’t pick a Stanley Cup Champion and get the 2x multiplier bonus like the rest of us, nor can you receive the Ashamed Fan Award (for finishing in last place) nor the Crystal Clairvoyant and Brackcellent Awards, but you can still earn points like the rest us and maybe, potentially, still try to finish in first place and get the Connor McDavid Award. (It's possible!)
Yeah...for next year’s pool I’ll try to make an announcement about it not just on the forums as much as possible in advance, but also post about it on our Discord server as well, since the majority of users on here usually hang out over there. I'm sure that Liberty (or whoever's in charge of the server) will be fine with it.

I guess it's too late to join now (and I noticed only now that I missed last year). I need to pay more attention to rmn and time in general tbh.
