Yes Graham, a great night for Cookie Assault. The Sabres taking the chocholate chips to Detroit, and The Avs laying a box of Girl Scout cookies to the Maple Laughs and the Flames lost the old fashion way, in regulation (hate the OT loss point). Avs are winning and O'Reilly and Duchense haven't even started scoring yet, maybe we finally have a goalie! and Graham, I don't care if your predictions win NO WAY am I going to be seen buying you a Red Wings hat! Next Up Avs at Habs
Updated Cookie Jar Standings
Sabres 7
Senators 6
Hab-Nots 4
Laughs 1
Blasphemy Statement: Went to Rockies Game Sunday night (F#$%in' Phillies) and after that late night before a Monday of work and dropping some coin on the game, dinner, bar and a hotel I don't know if I can handle another party on a "school night" for the Hip Show in Denver on Sunday the 1st.
Good Game yesterday, a bit of a disappointing outcome for us down here, but at least we got beat by Sid. Congrats to you all up North, don't expect that today will be a very productive work day in Canada.
As for our pre-season predictions and current leaders
fingernailsonhull 5 points Canada - gold USA - silver
Graham 4 points Canada Finland - bronze
Grimes 4 points Canada Finland
Violetlightheron, LizardKing, Thedarkcanuck,thehip11, direwolf74,BrenTheodore,JonPrice 3 points Canada - gold
Barkley,VioletLite,mrlayance,Redhill 0 nil, nada, zip, zero, big old goose egg
Sabres first game after Olympics, Tuesday in Pittsburgh.
Think Miller is sick to his stomach at having to face Crosby after that goal?

Sweet!
One week left. Can Colorado hold off Calgary despite losing at home to them on friday? Boston/Philly or The Rangers in the 7/8 spots back east? Will Pittsburgh or New Jersey win The Atlantic? Can't wait for the playoffs to start.
yuppers
almost time to start paying attention

Barring some kind of fluky miracle, I think the Flames are done. Colorado still has a game in hand and they only need 4 points over their last four games to get in. Flames have three games left and need to win all of 'em to have a chance. I'm pretty certain we're looking at the first spring in 6 years without Flames playoff hockey. It's horrible.

Trying to avoid doing my taxes, so here are the final regular season standings based on pre-season predictions including The Olympics. Two sets of results based on if NJ Devils of Pitt Penguins win The Patrick Division (or whatever they call it these days). 19 possible points so far.
New Jersey Wins: 10 points- Grimes, Lizard King 9 points- fingernailsonhull, thehip11, jonprice34 7 points- violetlightheron, thedarkcanuck, direwolf74, brentheodore, redhill 6 points- mrlayance, graham 4 points- barkley 2 points- violetlite
Pittsburgh wins: 12 points- lizard king 11 points- fingernailsonhull, thehip11 10 points- grimes 9 points- violetlightheron, direwolf74, brentheodore, jonprice34 8 points- mrlayance, graham 7 points- redhill, thedarkcanuck 6 points- barkley 2 points- violetlite
Sorry 'bout your Flames direwolf
Is The King of Lizards afraid to come in here now that Colorado's point total officially exceeds the "I got meself cut a new asshole." limit?

yes im afraid.....fuck you graham, overlooked the fact that the person who started the thread and VLH both picked them to have less points than i did, and two others less than 70 eh?
you stupid fuck
well Avs and Sabres are out so I guess that means it's time to go fishing. Hope somebody takes out San Jose, for some reason I just don't care for them and maybe we'll get a Caps vs Pens series. Enjoy the rest of the Cup playoffs all.

May 12th and another snow day here in the mountains so I'll update the "what if" standings on predictions (Chi vs SJ out west):
Bos vs Pit Final
15-finger,jprice 13- vlheron,lking,darkc,grimes 12-hip11 10-dwolf,bren,rhill,bdog 9-mrly,grah 2-vl
Bos vs Mon
15-finger,jprice 10-vlher,lking,darkc,bren,grimes,rhill 9-hip11,mrly,grah 7-dwolf,bdog 2-vl
Phi vs Pit
18-jprice 16-lking,grimes 13-darkc 12-finger,hip11 10-vlher,bre,rhill,dwolf 9-mryl 7-bdog 6-grah 2-vl
Phi vs Mon
18-jprice 13-lking,grimes 12-fingr 10-darkc,vlher,rhill,bren 9-hip11,mryl 7-dwolf,bdog 6-grah 2-vl
So as best as I can figure right now out of the 6 teams left to possibly win the Cup
San Jose wins- fingernailsonhull*
Chicago wins-who knows?
Montreal wins- brentheodore*
Boston-hell freezes over?
Philadelphia-jonprice*
Pittsburgh-grimes/lizardking/darkcanuck*
*probable winner based on my poor math skills
tie-breaker Avalanche 95 points guesses- grimes 71, darkcanuck 71, lizard king 65
Enjoy the games tonight, que the music
