looks like my faith lays with toronto (can\'t have montreal beat them by 2), new york islanders, columbus, and phoenix

looks like I am screwed haha

[doulos]

Down 6-4 with 2 games left. I need both Atlanta and Phoenix to win or I am out.

[Caporal]

Wow : if Vancouver win against the Yotes, I move to the second round and hold a winning lottery ticket !

Go Canucks Go !

[doulos]

No you\'ve already won since Atlanta only won in the Shootout.

You\'re onto the QuarterFinals!

[JagrBomb]

i am too! by default lol

[doulos]

Looks like Dutch needs a Phoenix win to stay alive.

[hockeyislife]

This must be March Madness Dobber-style...

Where else can the #16 seed upset the #1?

Oh Baby!!!

[Dutch]

the coyotes better win...

i would be really sad if they didn\'t

[Dutch]

doulos, i just checked quickly, but just to double check

if coyotes win, I am only tied correct? So does that mean, tomorrows games, or what happens again?

[Dutch]

Just in case, for tomorrow I will make the first game pick

Philadelphia - Pittsburgh H

the rest of the picks to follow

Looks like picking a T in TB vs ATL games was the difference for me.
