The first round has now ended, and it’s time to look back on our predictions, and how it really went…
Just to remind you, correctly picking the winner of a series was worth 5 points, and guessing the correct length of the series too was worth an additional 5 points.
(I’m sorry if that’s not really easy to read, I struggled a bit to post tables here…)

Yeah, I’m first. I would like to officially deny the unfounded allegations that this contest is completely rigged. I’m winning because I’m good, and that’s the only reason! :)
Good luck for the second round, and don’t forget what we’re fighting for:
Oh my precious virtual little golden plastic star…
BAH! This system is beyond rigged =D
The Devils could have won in 6…..And they should have won in 7…. stupid Brodeur cost me points…. ARGH!!!!!!!!!
Yup, the series with the Canes was completely ridiculous.
I STILL don’t understand why I picked the Blues. I don’t know what my reasoning was, if I had any. I had been saying this Canucks team looks stronger than they have in a long long time and that they were my favourite to win it all yet I called a first round exit! Bah, dumb.
On the bright side, the Sharks burned everyone!
