    1-4 so not much better. Though most of these we didn't expect to be sweeps, and it doesn't matter which games are won, just that one team wins more.

    I went 2-3 on day 1 and I didn't pick sweeps so I'm still in the running for the perfect prediction bonus points.

    In baseball since the institution of the best of 5 series in 1995 the team that won game one went on to win the series in 63 of the 88 series played. Or 72% of the time. The NHL ran a best of 5 first round from 1980 to 1986 - the team than won game one won the series in 49 of 56 series. Or 88% of the time.

    So of the eight teams that lose game one, the expectation would be that only one or two of them come back to win the series.

    That’s what the historical numbers say.

    Oilers, Penguins and Leafs all lose Game 1. Arguably the 3 teams that most would have said deserved an actual playoff spot in the 16 teams.

    2020...what a year

    Actually pretty much every underdog has won so far. Aside from NYI over Fla. Most people were picking NYR. Colorado/StL was a toss up.

    Why would the team with the 8th best record in the Eastern Conference be one of the 3 teams most deserving of an actual playoff spot on a 16 team playoff? Also, I don't know why you would consider Toronto the favorite in their match up with the Blue Jackets. They had identical points percentages in the regular season and the Jackets destroyed the Lightning in the first round last year. The Leafs are pretty much a not as good version of the Lightning.

    I said the teams that most would have said deserved a spot. Everyone considered Toronto a favorite. Any gambling site would have told you that. Columbus had a negative goal differential. Cmon man.

    No kidding. If I was a gambling man in a bizarro world, I’d be rich.
