*****Official 2017 NHL Playoffs Thread With Contest*****
I thought it would be cool to have a thread for the best postseason in sports, the NHL Playoffs.
Even though my Kings are out, I love watching the playoffs and wish the best to all of you with your teams. Here's the link for the bracket predictor. https://bracketchallenge.nhl.com/leagues/chiefsplanet The password is Lonewolf and I hope we can get some of you in there with a bracket. Enjoy!

I believe you can search for a group to join, too... or I did it the cookie way by signing in and then going to the link in the OP a 2nd time because nhl.com is too dumb to redirect because it's apparently the first time they've done this website thing.

In terms of my bracket, I ended up with Washington over Anaheim.
However, there are a few teams I really like to make a run that could foil those picks. Someone has to beat the Penguins, and they're the champions until otherwise. That won't be easy. It was hard to pick against them. Chicago is also obvious. But they did tail off a BIT at the end of the season. Nonetheless, those guys know how to do it. And honestly, is there a hotter team coming into the playoffs than St. Louis? I like them against Minnesota, and maybe they can give Chicago a run too. Can't wait. |

The 4pm starts out here kind of suck, but it wraps up around 9:30-10, which is nice for catching the Oilers and Ducks.

It's probably a tossup series though... 6 or 7 one goal games that are the hockey equivalent of UNC/Gonzaga, minus the whistles every 20 seconds.

They're playing well, and I think they have a great chance of knocking off Minnesota. Within the big picture I'm just looking at the individuals, like Jake Allen who looks like he's figured it out...Tarasenko is playing well...I don't know. I just like their chances. |

NHL.com is such a pain in the ass. I still can't enter my bracket.

It's fitting that the league that can't figure out how to send athletes to the Olympics can't figure out a website either.

I'm honestly a bit uninformed about the nuances of the Olympics debate. What is it that the IOC and IIHF are doing that is causing the issue?
