Drummer John's NHL Playoff Hockey Pool 2009

Brain Crowned the Winner as Penguins win cup!

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Sat, 13 Jun 2009 17:46:00 +0000

Following a thrilling game 7 victory, the Pittsburgh Penguins have won the 2009 Stanley Cup! Perhaps more importantly, Brain has won the 1st ever "Drummer John's NHL Playoff Pool"! Had it not been for a complete collapse from Shane, it may have been a tighter finish, but Brain managed to pull off a convincing win with a 25 point cushion on 2nd place. Rajwinda and Buck made it interesting bringing in a Stanley Cup round best 85 points each after both predicting a Penguins game 7 win, along with each winning one of the bonuses. Rajwinda predicted 28 goals scored and had the closest prediction to 31 without going over. Buck was the only one to predict Malkin to win the Conn Smyth trophy as playoff MVP. Yours truly managed to win the game 7 bonus with a prediction of 10, and Maxim Talbot's game winning goal coming at 10:07 of the 2nd period. I rule.

Here is the final leaderboard for you to view, savor, bookmark and revisit over and over and perhaps show your grandchildren:

Handle	Round 1	Round 2	Round 3	Round 4	Total
Brain	85	70	65	60	280
Rajwinda	90	40	40	85	255
Buck	80	30	50	85	245
Huggylicious	90	30	85	35	240
Jds308	70	80	25	60	235
Shane	45	110	65	0	220
Wildeman	75	80	40	25	220
Red	90	50	50	0	190

This will remain on this web site permanently at this location, where as the leaderboard on the side bar will eventually be replaced with a new one.

Thanks to everyone for participating in this 2009 NHL playoffs pool, it made following hockey without my beloved Oilers still interesting and worth watching. I hope you will all join again next season. I plan on doing something a little more advanced for the regular season, perhaps picking fantasy teams or maybe even more of an NFL style game(s) of the week system. I will think about it and find something that I can manage without spending my life doing it, and that is not to much of a commitment for the participants involved. Let me know if you have any suggestions, feedback or ideas.

GO OILERS!

Game 7 - Stanley Cup Final

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 14:07:00 +0000

Oh yeah! What better way to end the playoffs and crown this years Stanley Cup Champions than with a game 7! So here we go:

Choose 1 number between 0-20, this number will represent the minute on the score clock that the game winning goal is scored at. You don't need to choose a period, only a minute. Your minute will count in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and all overtime periods. For example, if I were to pick "19" and the game winning goal is scored at 19:21 of the 2nd period I would win the game 7 bonus. If the game winning goal is scored at 19:11 of the 1st, or 19:33 of the 3rd, or even if it's scored at 19:00 of the 2nd OT period I would win the bonus. You do not need to predict the period, or the seconds, only the whole minute. Make sense? Good.

Let's have your predictions in no later than this Friday, June 12 by 6:00pm ET.

Round 2 Done

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Fri, 15 May 2009 03:47:00 +0000

With the Hurricane's o.t. win tonight, along with the Wings knocking off the Ducks, the 2nd round is done. Shane has completed his worst to first run on the leaderboard after jumping from last place following the 1st round, into a 3 way tie for the lead at the conclusion of round 2 tonight. Brain, also tied for 1st place, won the round 2 Bonus by guessing the closest total amount of goals scored in the Western Conference without going over. Total goals scored were 81, Brain had picked 76.

Each series in the next round is worth more points and the leaderboard is pretty tight. Still anyone's to win!

Caps are done

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Thu, 14 May 2009 02:14:00 +0000

The Penguins knocked off the Caps in their game 7 tonight, in fact they clobbered them 6-2! Congratulations to Shane who not only picked the Penguins to win in 7 games, but was also the only one to correctly predict that the winning team would score 6 goals in the game tonight. Shane completed the first sweep of a playoff series so far to include a game 7. With the 40 points gained he jumped from last place all the way up to 2nd just behind the current leader, Wildeman.

With 2 game 7's wrapping tomorrow, there are lots of points to be handed out. As of now there are a few people who have not entered their game 7 bonus prediction for the games tomorrow night. Get them in soon or you'll miss out on all the crazy fun/action that is yet to be had!

Good luck!

Game 7 Bonus - Ducks vs Red Wings

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Wed, 13 May 2009 06:26:00 +0000

Ok, I have to admit I've had a few rums tonight and maybe am in no shape to be posting this. None the less, because it's very late and I need to go sleep these rums off:

Who will score the last goal for the losing team?

Predictions need to be in by 5:00pm ET Thursday May 14th.

Game 7 Bonus - Bruins vs Hurricanes

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Wed, 13 May 2009 02:32:00 +0000

Ok, so after rethinking this is I have decided that my Game 7 Bonus question was not only too easy, but unfair if I wish to maintain equality throughout this "pool" sort of thing. So I am going to change it now since only Huggylicious has responded to this point.

So let's go back to basics.

Who will assist on the first goal of the game?

Answers must be in by 6:00pm ET, Thursday May 14th.

Ok, so I want to do something different and fun for this game 7. I want to put trivia question out there, but at the same time I want to be able to gain the points as well. So here's the deal. Other than me there are 7 participants in the pool, so if at least 4 of your get this right, I also get the points. If less than 4 get this right I lose as well.

Game 7 Bonus Bruins vs Hurricanes

The Hurricanes, formerly the Whalers, moved from Hartford to Carolina way back in 1997. Who is the only Hartford Whaler team captain, who has been inducted to the hall of fame, and had their jersey retired by the Whalers, and what was his number?

Answers must be in by 6:00pm ET, Thursday May 14th.

Game 7 Bonus - Capitals vs Penguins

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Tue, 12 May 2009 02:18:00 +0000

So while I wait to see if the Canucks can force a game 7, I figure I will post the Game 7 Bonus for the Caps/Pens.

Predictions need to be made by 5:00pm ET this Wednesday, May 13th.

How many goals will the winning team score?

Nucks and Caps Could be Out?

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Tue, 12 May 2009 01:30:00 +0000

So we could have 2 series's wrap up tonight if the Blackhawks can beat the Canucks and if the Penguins can stop the Capitals, otherwise will have 2 game 7's all set and ready to go. If the game 7's happen I will be posting the Game 7 Bonuses tonight. 2 More game 6's to go tomorrow, so we could have a bunch of bonus points up for grabs. I will also be sure to update the leaderboard as these series's wrap up.

Pit/Wash heading to o.t. right now, tied 4-4. Gotta love playoff hockey!

NHL Playoff Hockey Pool 2009 - Round 2

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 02:44:00 +0000

Round 2

EASTERN CONFERENCE

Series 'I' - #1 Boston Bruins vs. #6 Carolina Hurricanes
Series 'J' - #2 Washington Capitals vs. #4 Pittsburgh Penguins

* In the event that nobody predicts correctly, the closest prediction(s) without going over wins the bonus.

Canes, Caps win Game 7's

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 02:34:00 +0000

Wow, what a finish to both these series!

Congratulations to Huggylicious, the only one to guess the Game 7 Bonus for the Canes vs Devils series. He took Joni Pitkanen who had only one second more ice time then the next player. Can you feel the excitement?

Round 1 ends with a 3 way tie for 1st place between Rajwinda, Red, and Huggylicious, all with 90 points. But don't worry, with each round of the playoffs correct predictions are worth increasingly more, meaning it's still anybody's game to win, even Shane's ;)

I'll post the round 2 match up a little later so get your predictions ready for round 2!

Presidents Trophy Winners Done! Flamers Out!

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 05:38:00 +0000

Oh man, there are some moments I love watching playoff hockey, but few are better than watching as the Flamers from Calgary go down in... well flames! HAHAHAHAHA

Maybe it's just me, or maybe it's the Calgary Flames fan/bar owner of the bar I just came home from, but I'm feeling pretty good tonight considering my team is nowhere to be found in the playoffs!

Combined with a San Jose (choke) first round exit at the hands of the "red hot" Anaheim Ass-Clowns, errr I mean Ducks, this sets up the 2nd round in the West as follows:

Ducks vs Wings
Canucks vs (2009 Stanley Cup Winning) Blackhawks

Yeah, there are few things better than a Flames loss. In fact there is nothing better than a Flames loss other than it being at the hands of the Oilers, however I will take a big Hawks win over the Flamers from Cow-Town followed by a hard fought win over the Nucks from Van-City.

Good luck Canuck fans, this should be a good tilt!

Let's hope for a couple great game 7's tomorrow, remember to get your game 7 bonus predictions in if you haven't already.

Game 7 Bonus - Devils vs Hurricanes

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 00:18:00 +0000

Oh yeah! Another Game 7 all set and ready to roll! This can mean only one thing, another Game 7 Bonus!

Predictions must be entered no later than 5:30pm ET, Tuesday April 28th. As usual please leave them in the form of a comment.

Game 7 Bonus: Devils vs Hurricanes

What "skater" will lead both teams in ice time in game 7?

Game 7 Bonus - Capitals vs Rangers

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Sun, 26 Apr 2009 14:53:00 +0000

This is the first Game 7 of the 2009 Playoffs and the first chance at some bonus points for the pool! Predictions must be entered no later than 5:00pm ET, this Tuesday April 28th. Please leave your prediction in the form of a comment bellow. Remember to comment using your handle.

Game 7 Bonus - Capitals vs Rangers

Who will score the series winning goal?

Wings - 3rd team to use the brooms

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 03:37:00 +0000

Following the lead of the Canucks and Bruins, The Detroit Red Wings completed the sweep of the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight. Columbus, making their first trip to the post season in franchise history this season, failed to win a game against the defending Stanley Cup champions.

What does this mean to us? Well, the 6 way tie for the lead becomes a 5 way tie since I decided to take Columbus. What can I say, Columbus had great goaltending and Detroit didn't down the stretch. I thought the Wings were ripe for an upset. At least it shows that I'm not rigging the pool!

Habs are out!

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 02:30:00 +0000

Well the Habs take one on the chin tonight as the bastards from Boston put the brooms to Les Canadiens. I can't stand the Bruins, but what do you do.

Red's one day lead in the pool has now turned into 2nd last place only because of the other Habs fan Shane who still has yet to get a point and still occupies the bottom spot.

Will Detroit sweep tomorrow? We'll see.

Canucks Sweep Round 1

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 04:11:00 +0000

Well, well, well, for the first time in franchise history the Canucks have swept a series. I have to say I didn't think they were going to pull it off but they did and in o.t. no less.

As for the pool, the leaderboard has been updated. Congratulations to Red who has taken the first lead after selecting Vancouver to win and guessing the Bonus correctly choosing Rick Rypien to lead the Canucks in penalty minutes. He finished with 12 PIM in 4 games.

After one series being complete Red sits alone in 1st with 20 points, followed by a 6-way tie for 2nd spot all with 15 points and lastly Shane (the only one to pick the Blues to win) with 0 points alone in 8th spot. Nobody predicted a 4 game series sweep.

Things should start to get interesting as a few more playoff series are likely going to wrap up within the next few days, and remember for ALL game sevens throughout the post season there will be a "game 7 bonus" that you will need to enter no later than 2 hours prior to the start of the game. I will post the bonus question asap following game 6 and email all the participants as well.

NHL Playoff Hockey Pool 2009 - Rules

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 04:42:00 +0000

After some thought I have come up with a format for the pool. I want to make it simple for me to manage and easy for the participants as well since we all have busy lives, while still keeping it interesting.

Here are the rules:

Once the playoff match ups are set, each participant will need to submit all there picks for round 1 of the 2009 NHL Playoffs no later than 2 hours before the start of the first game. They will select a winner for each best of 7 playoff series as well as predict how many games the series will last. For example let's say this is a 1st round match up:

San Jose (1) vs Anaheim (8)
Prediction: San Jose wins series 4-2

Bonus:

Throughout the playoffs there will be a series of bonus predictions pertaining to teams, stats, players, or trivia and extra points will be awarded. For example:
How many goals will Joe Thornton score in the first round? or Who will lead in playoff scoring?

Game 7 Bonus:

For all game 7's throughout the playoffs there will be an additional game 7 bonus prediction and will be posted asap following game 6 and will close 2 hours before game 7 starts.

Scoring System:

Round 1:
Correct series winner + correct number of games played = 20 points
Correct series winner + wrong number of games played = 15 points
Wrong series winner + correct number of games played = 5 points
Wrong series winner + wrong number of games played = 0 points
Bonus = 5 points
Game 7 Bonus = 5 points

Round 2:
Correct series winner + correct number of games played = 30 points
Correct series winner + wrong number of games played = 20 points
Wrong series winner + correct number of games played = 10 points
Wrong series winner + wrong number of games played = 0 points
Bonus = 10 points
Game 7 Bonus = 10 points

Round 3 - Conference Finals:
Correct series winner + correct number of games played = 40 points
Correct series winner + wrong number of games played = 25 points
Wrong series winner + correct number of games played = 15 points
Wrong series winner + wrong number of games played = 0 points
Bonus = 15 points
Game 7 Bonus = 15 points

Round 3 - Stanley Cup Finals:
Correct series winner + correct number of games played = 60 points
Correct series winner + wrong number of games played = 35 points
Wrong series winner + correct number of games played = 25 points
Wrong series winner + wrong number of games played = 0 points
Bonus = 25 points
Game 7 Bonus = 25 points

The winner will receive praise from all other participants plus their picture up in lights atop this blog through the summer until the start of the 2009/2010 NHL regular season (providing I have a picture of the winner).

Drummer John's NHL Playoff Hockey Pool 2009

noreply@blogger.com (John Simmonds) — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 03:14:00 +0000

Welcome to my NHL Playoff Hockey Pool blog page. I am planning on hosting a pool here for this seasons playoffs. I haven't got all the rules worked out yet, but I am working on them and will post them as soon as they are complete.

This pool will be more of a predict the score/winner/series winner sort of thing so it will be pretty simple and won't take a lot of time out of anyone's day. The idea I have is we will start with the 8 playoff match ups. Each player in the pool will make predictions at the start of each series of what team will win the series and in how many games, and maybe even the score of each game earning more points the more accurate the prediction. But as I said, I will get the rules figured out and post them soon.

This pool is open to my friends only or by invite, however if I don't get a lot of response I will allow others to join. Leave me a comment if you're interested in joining!
