The "I WAS RIGHT" thread (2012-2013 Edition)
Well... that time of the year.
We could all go bumping every thread about things we said that were right.
Or, in one nice-clean-thread... you can bump everything here.
Learn how to use the "search", "advanced search", and enter your key search words and your user name to find your threads.
Then, while typing, learn paste your link.
For example:
Here's a thread on me saying that Rinne wouldn't finish top 15 in either GAA or SV%.
Alright boys... let 'em fly!

Don't mistake opinion for fact.
My (crazy) predictions.
Not right on all of them, but close enough.
1. Ottawa wins the Northeast Division
2. Islanders make the playoffs
3. Strome puts up more points than RNH
4. Hodgson leads the Sabres in scoring
5. Turris out-points Spezza
1. Wrong, but with the Anderson, Spezza and Karlsson injuries I don't feel too bad.
2. Oh hells yeah. Islanders in the post-season!
3. Nothing to see here folks, move along.
4. He was second. Not quite right, but pretty effing close.
5. Nailed it.
Surprisingly good showing me thinks.

I told everyone Giroux was not a Top 5 pickand that much of his success could be attributed to Jagr. (Although I didn't expect him to hit point-per-game so he gets some credit).
LOL.
This thread died... we are becoming a modest group.
I've got one I remember today.
I nailed my prediction on Tomas Vokoun's PIT starts: 17. BOOM.
I also hit on a prediction that people should invest in Eastern Conference skaters & Western Conference goalies.
And I think a lot of people had Voracek as a sleeper... but I went far enough to consider that he had James Neal like potential to break out for a 70-80pt pace and make Ovechkin/Voracek a better trade side to Giroux.

This one I didn't post, but last year, I traded Kevin Shattenkirk in my keeper pool and kept Markov because I thought Markov would get more points this year (I made the deal last May, when I still thought there would be a full NHL season) and I was going to go for the win. Sure enough, Markov finished with 30 points, and Shattenkirk 23.

This thread is quite a few pages shorter than the "I WAS WRONG" thread.
Funny but predictable.
Too lazy to check but pretty sure I was right about the Kunitz vs. Toews for the rest of the season thing.
But then again I was wrong on about a bazilion things so it evens out

I had a good inkling about Brendan Gallagher when I snagged him off waivers very early in the season.
Was also right about Mason revitalizing his career- didn't think he'd get traded though.

Right about Sean Couturier
Right about the Oilers stinking it up
Right about Jonas Brodin
Right about Zibanejad being better than Silfverberg
Right about Bishop begin traded for more than he was acquired for (2nd rounder).
Kinda right about Dougie Hamilton (soft defensively, healthy scratched for Redden).
Right about Bobrovsky having a "Mike Smith" out of no where season.
Right about Reimer having a bounce back year
