Day 7 Results - OT!

[JiriHrdina]

Day 7 56 Edmonton Oilers (3) vs Colorado Avalanche (4) - OT

[JiriHrdina]

Holy #### that is a game for the ages for Steve Stamkos.
4 goals including the OT winner.
Putting his team on his back!

[JiriHrdina]

Round 2 starts tomorrow. Lines by 8 am please though sim time could be anytime.
Day 8 57 New York Rangers vs Pittsburgh Penguins
58 Toronto Maple Leafs vs Washington Capitals
59 Colorado Avalanche vs L.A. Kings
60 Phoenix Coyotes vs Chicago Blackhawks

The western conference matchups don't make sense.

it should be PHX vs LAK. We are a) in the same division and b) the top and bottom seeds left.

Captain Stamkos to the rescue!!!

Can't believe I came back from 3-1. Congrats to the Edmonton Oilers on a great series.

In previous seasons I am pretty sure we gave the only team to go to a game 7 five rest days - can you confirm?

Also, why am I playing the Kings in the 2nd round? Shouldn't they be playing Phoenix?

What kind of side deal was made that allowed this to happen?

fair statement

What do you want for Stamkos? Take a look at my team and let me know.

Just kidding! Anyways, we blew a big lead and our goalies were absolutely terrible in the latter part of the series, but Stamkos carried them and his shot was too much for our tenders.

As mad as I am, I guess that's a pretty good first season for a teenager playing against some vets.

Congrats Colorado, win the cup so I don't feel as bad about my loss!

Wow, that's a awesome game 7.

I don't know. As mentioned, I think somehow our contraction is buggered things up coupled with my efforts to get us the right configuration - I somehow may have made it worse.
It is something I will try and figure out in the off-season. When we contracted I didn't realize that it would cause problems with the sim when it comes to playoff alignment since we have enough teams in each division that it shouldn't.

[Swayze11]

no problem, I rather not play Chicago. They have had my number all year.

Can you answer the question about rest days though?

[dsavillian]

Work hard all year to secure the #1 seed and get stuck playing the #3 instead of #4.

Rigged!

[JiriHrdina]

Each team was rested one day between rounds

If I had Grant Marshall he could've scored more than Stamkos though
