Earlier in this thread Aussie talked about possibly instituting the drop 3 rule. I think that would be fair all around ? I would say the contest suffered this week not only from the holidays but from not being sticky.

I put this together real quick,hope I didn't make any mistakes. My specialty in figuring out percentages is just keeping track of total picks cast rather then correct ones,I always scavenge those numbers off of aussie. Week 13 1. akustyk 15/18 2.

I pretty much agree with this poster,it was in poor taste but I don't get real worked up about these kinds of things. The guy has a right to be an idiot.I've just seen to much Political correctness stifle some things that should be said but never do so my radar goes up when people say he should be fired. I just hope the outrage is the same when the next thread announcing a Pens star injury and the occasional glee that I think we've all seen gets expressed here.

Here's something I've been working on for the last hour (at least that long) of course not offical..... 1. johnnyoski 144 2. kook_10 143 3. Aussie_Wing 142 4. akustyk 141 5. Eizzo03 139 5.

what was I thinking,the last 3 weeks in the top 10 along with finwing and dropkickshanahans. drop,you have the most right picks in that time period by a 3 point margin and I think you might have missed a few games. I pointed you out in my 1-7 week recap of percentages and your high ranking then.... Your the man,you have some real instincts for this !

nice job russianswede919293 and zetterisbetter,way to go ! 2nd time in two weeks for me in the top ten,I'll take that........ nice job dropkickshanahans for last minute "half assed picks" you may have found a successful system there Merry Christmas to everyone !

well rather then sounding like a nerd I rounded it off to 99 It's acutally 98.882352 :-) but my money is on them getting over 100

on pace for 105 points ? I come up with 99

Friday: Ottawa @ New Jersey Toronto @ Buffalo Carolina @ Florida Tampa Bay @ St Louis Boston @ Chicago Washington @ Vancouver Saturday: NY Rangers @ Philadelphia Detroit @ Dallas Phoenix @ Anaheim Nashville @ Calgary Pittsburgh @ Buffalo Boston @ Toronto Minnesota @ Ottawa Montreal @ NY Islanders Florida @ Carolina New Jersey @ Atlanta Columbus @ Colorado Washington @ Edmonton Sunday: Detroit @ Chicago St Louis @ Vancouver

lol,I meant it to be symbolic but now that I look at it again I think I turned my penguin into a horny hummingbird

hak,looks like this would have been a better week for the experiment :-) 15 of 22 home teams winning this week. My money is on Swayze winning this week (17-22) a near perfect Saturday (11/12) One of the few to pick Toronto over Washington. congratulations on a great score. edit: I see Aussie beat me to it by a few seconds !

good to see your back on track Drake. You've been on a little bit of a slide ever since I called you a wizard for your picks about 4 weeks ago.....I jinxed you !

Friday: Florida @ New Jersey Carolina @ Washington Chicago @ Buffalo Anaheim @ Detroit Edmonton @ St Louis Tampa Bay @ Colorado Minnesota @ Calgary Dallas @ San Jose Saturday: Washington @ Toronto Carolina @ Ottawa Philadelphia @ New Jersey Boston @ NY Islanders Buffalo @ NY Rangers Montreal @ Atlanta Anaheim @ Columbus Florida @ Pittsburgh Detroit @ Nashville San Jose @ Phoenix Minnesota @ Vancouver Dallas @ Los Angeles Sunday: Tampa Bay @ Chicago Calgary @ Colorado

congratulations to johnnyoski ! wow this is tough trying to pick the winners every week. I can't believe how many times my pick has taken a lead into the last couple of minutes only to lose in OT ! It seems like the last 3 weeks we've all been picking the same sure bets only to see them lose ! Great contest,loads of fun !

Friday: Tampa Bay @ New Jersey Boston @ Montreal Anaheim @ Minnesota Nashville @ Chicago Saturday: Vancouver @ Carolina Edmonton @ Dallas St Louis @ Los Angeles Toronto @ Boston NY Rangers @ Buffalo Detroit @ New Jersey Washington @ Philadelphia Atlanta @ Florida Colorado @ Columbus Chicago @ Pittsburgh NY Islanders @ Tampa Bay Minnesota @ Nashville Ottawa @ Phoenix Calgary @ San Jose Sunday: Detroit @ NY Rangers Ottawa @ Anaheim

very nice,you guys do things first class around here

lol,that's great ! I don't recommended going to that extreme now :-) But if you would have selected the home team in every game the last 2 weeks you would be tied for 8th place during that time period out of the 50 or so people who have participated in the contest. P.S. Your just kidding around with me,you'll edit your selections later :-)

another rough week so far,only one person over 50% (7) ! 4-5 is about average !

Friday: New Jersey @ Boston Buffalo @ Philadelphia Pittsburgh @ NY Islanders Colorado @ Minnesota Chicago @ Anaheim Atlanta @ Carolina Calgary @ Detroit NY Rangers @ Tampa Bay Toronto @ Florida St Louis @ Nashville Dallas @ Phoenix San Jose @ Edmonton Saturday: NY Islanders @ New Jersey Ottawa @ Boston Carolina @ Buffalo Washington @ Montreal Philadelphia @ Atlanta Calgary @ Columbus NY Rangers @ Pittsburgh Detroit @ St Louis Florida @ Nashville Tampa Bay @ Dallas Minnesota @ Colorado Edmonton @ Vancouver Chicago @ Los Angeles Sunday: Phoenix @ Anaheim San Jose @ Vancouver

Aussie,your too modest :-) Your also moving up,and up and this weekend didn't hurt that either in relationship to what the rest of the pac around you did.........

congratulations to the fins for weathering the storm ! And to juice71285,Batigol2k,Bry-O and SeeinRed for getting over 50% ! I edited my selections on Thursday and picked Tampa bay over Carolina,should have stayed with the home team !

looks like a tough tough week in the contest. I have only 9 of 19 right so far but I just checked,and most of the leaders are in the 7,8-9 range except for one !
