[cprice12]

Just a heads up, we will once again be holding the world famous LGB Playoff Challenge this year.
Stay tuned for more details.

Is this the year Guppy breaks through and finally wins?
He has finished one point behind the winner, twice.

This is the second year in a row I'm going to be in Afghanistan during the playoffs, this year is going to be even worse since the blues actually have a chance to go far.

You never know- I was in Afghanistan the year I won.

About the only good thing that happened there...

[Portland Blues]

Ha! I'm still in 30th place after only entering the first and last year of the Challenge. You guys are lucky I spaced it for 3 years.

Well, if you look at avg. pts. per contest, you are still only in 19th place. So...there's that.

Man, I'm remarkably consistent. 22-21-22-21. Never had a great year. Was on two winning teams, if I recall. I always have a lot of fun with this, hopefully this is the year I go for the win.

And tied for 5th in "Most points in a single contest"!

I rule, all time wise

[JPonder94]

I'm in the top-40... guess I don't suck AS BAD as I thought.

[DaDitka]

It would certainly help if I could remember to make picks after the first round

[abc789987]

I wonder how many of us are going to pick a Blues upset in the first round....

If history means anything, I picked them to beat Vancouver in the first round in '09, if I recall.

That explains a lot. Thanks dick.

[glen a richter]

I don't even have to look at the historic numbers to know I've routinely been wrong on just about every pick. Don't worry, I'll choose the Blues to lose every round, so inevitably they'll win it all.

[goon attack]

I miserably failed last year. That was horrible, that performance.

[ViPeRx007]

85th place All-Time, chumps!

Wait, that's not very good.

[glen a richter]

Frank! I just realized I won't be able to make 1st round picks because I won't be here all week.

Have someone make your picks for you.

EC: 1 seed beats 8 in 4 games, 2 beats 7 in 5 games, 6 beats 3 in 6 games and 4 beats 5 in 6 games
