So anybody want me to do another NHL Stanley Cup Playoff Pool this season, or are you guys just too dang depressed that there are no Canadian teams in it this year?

(Yeah, you remember this from last year, right?)

So the NHL season is just a weekend away before officially wrapping up before the playoffs officially start, and it’s once again that time of the year again where we’ll all be wondering who’s gonna take it this year.

Although this year is a "little" bit different than last year’s playoffs if most of you in Canada have been paying attention lately…

Yeah, for the first time in 46 years there will be NO Canadian teams in the playoffs this time around, as the Canucks, Oilers, Flames, Jets, Senators, Maple Leafs and the Canadiens all crapped the bed this year with underachieving performances and a shit-ton of injuries. (Damn…)

- But that doesn't mean we still can’t have another playoff pool, right? I mean, we still gotta keep all the American hockey here fans happy, right?

So I just wanna know ahead of time how much interest there’s gonna be for this before going ahead and making another playoff pool sometime this weekend. If there are just 2 or 3 individuals this time around, we’ll probably just skip it for next year, but if there are enough participants again, then that’s great!

We can put up another achievement badge again for the winner who gets the most points at the end of the playoffs and just keep it to the same format from last time where you have to pick the winner of each series all the way to the Stanley Cup. Maybe we can double the points or something after each round concludes just to change things up?

- So anybody interested?
If there was one I'd do my old "who do I want to win" pool where I get obliterated again. C'mon Philly! Take out Washington! Nashville, you can do it!
I'd be game, but we sure could use some more participants this time.
That’s what I’m a little worried about...

Last year we had only five participants in it and this year it might just be the three of us.

However, maybe the enticement of having an achieveo on the line might persuade some other people to join in, you never know. I mean, that’s one of the main reasons that I join in most of the contests and events here on RMN, for the achieveos, so maybe we’ll get some other people joining in that way.

Anyways, I’ll make a thread later on and see what happens, now that I know who’s playing who.
I created a league on NHL.com if you wanted to use that...

I have no idea what I am doing. I can't seem to find a way to associate my bracket with the RMN league. And why can't I pick # of games for the 2nd, 3rd and Final rounds?

It’s okay, bud, I’ve got it covered. :)
