Who knows where it will end...

Don't over-analyze or you'll end up regretting it!
That being said, I like this team better. I think Toews is a good pick tonight, and Scheifele has been hot lately.

I don't do well in these things because I generally only pick players that I like, and never on teams that the Flames are fighting for playoffs with. I'm such a homer.
PS I'm lying, I do well.

Helps when the players we like are currently the hottest line in the league.

I have a theory that guys you hate for no reason are often great picks. It's because they're doing something to burn you that you hate them.
Half my #2 roster are those type of guys. #1 is a quick homer + players on teams I think will win. #2 is guys I hate because they play for teams that are in our way.
Yeah, Winnipeg is on both, it's not an exact science.

Exactly!!! Usually being a homer hurts betting, but in this case it has really helped.

I won a CP one doing the homer pick strategy.
I've won a lot of 50/50 running the guys I hate strategy and generally don't win much of the breakaways using it.

I've had very little success using my own brain, so I've decided for tonight to use yours. Split 10 bucks up between 5 pools of varying formats. Should I win the 2 grand, beers are on me

I've been on a slump recently, and am hoping it turns around tonight.
It's been a while since I've won anything more than $10.
Here's my picks:

I got a bit caught up in the hype hare, and now have 10 draftkings and 3 Fanduel entries tonight.

My only other roster, other than already posted, has 5 Flames
Good luck to all players today!

Just wanna take time to thank the guy who advised me to take Vanek over Gaborik who already has 2 assists.

Has anyone else had their interface stall or not start up? My interface hasn't started up for this contest and it's troubling.
