2015 Stanley Cup Predictions

So this year we are gain having the Arron Reinard Stanley Cup Playoff Challenge.

It goes like this...myself, my friend Arraon and some friends he knows predict the winners of each round of the playoffs. The person with the most correct predictions wins. In the past there has been a point system associated with each round to help dtermine the winner.

This year we posted our picks on fb mainly because it was more convenient.

Aarons Notes:

After round 1 here's how I see it correct me if I"m wrong. Jeff got 6 of 8 missing on Sens and Blues. Mike got 6 missing on the Canucks and sens. Randy got 6 of 8 missing on the Jets and Blues Matt got 5 of 8 missing on Isles, Canucks and Preds and for the first time (I think) in forever.....I won round 1 picks.....with 7 for 8 missing only on the Isles. 

Also I think this was the best first round picks we've all ever made collectively. Like.....no one really really sucked (that's usually me). Good job boys.

Here is how the points shake out:
Matt - 10
Randy - 8
Mike - 12
Aaron - 10
Jeff -  12

You can say it was a split. But I did correctly guess the Cup winner and the correct amount of games it'd take. I love doing this every year, mainly because I do not get to watch as much hockey as I would like, but I love the game. There isnt many other playoffs that are more exciting than the NHL. Til next year folks!
