Ray77

And just like that, in 1 post DaveK went all "DaveK" on us again. He was having a really good run...being fairly quiet on here and when he would post, it was pretty normal. Then he goes and does this. Phil Kessel at #5 all time Penguins...he's only played there this year and DaveK has him ahead of Jaromir Jagr and Hall of Famers Paul Coffey and Ron Francis. Oh, and he has Matt Cooke in his top 10. Enough said...

6/5 update (Day 45): 116 - DaveK 103 - Goon 90 - petey23 89 - UND-RedSox fan 71 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 62 - Fetch 51 - Sicatoka II

It would be VERY rare. And in this case, there's about a 0% chance that would happen. Gage is the Captain.

This is a really good article on Kessel and Joe Thornton. When the Madness Becomes the Blueprint

I can agree with you on this point, but that also means that Phil Kessel would win a Cup. <insert vomiting emoji here>

And to think, NOBODY in this game took Logan Couture or Joe Pavelski (the top 2 point scorers), or Kucherov, Thornton or Johnson. That's 5 of the top 7 point scorers in the playoffs up until now. Granted, you'd have had to think SJ and TB were going to keep winning. Tampa was my team last year which I rode to a victory, and I abandoned them this year. DOH!

Nope...but I will say it's pretty impressive that Sicatoka II did that well this year. Almost beat Fetch and I and we were trying to pick "good" teams! I also do think that Fetch can catch Ray77, but I'm pretty much pretending that this all never really happened.

5/27 update (Day 42): Well, that's all she wrote, folks. Congrats to DaveK on the victory! He had faith in his boys and we all thought he was crazy (well, at least I did) but it paid off. I'll keep updating the scores, but it's a done deal. In fact, the most interesting race remaining will be to see if UND-RedSox fan can catch petey23 for 3rd place with Burns and Letang. 106 - DaveK - entire team remaining 99 - Goon - Crosby and Burns 90 - petey23 - entire team eliminated 85 - UND-RedSox fan - Burns and Letang 69 - Sicatoka I - Crosby 64 - Ray77 - entire team has been eliminated for forever 60 - Fetch - Crosby 48 - Sicatoka II - Ward and Shultz

5/26 update (Day 41): 103 - DaveK 98 - Goon 90 - petey23 85 - UND-RedSox fan 69 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 60 - Fetch 48 - Sicatoka II We lost a few more players last night, and more to come tonight. Backes, Brouwer, Tarasenko, Parayko, Pietrangelo and Shattenkirk....GONE. And with that, petey23's team is eliminated. A Pittsburgh win tonight gives DaveK the victory. A Pittsburgh loss tonight will mean that Goon has Burns and Hedman remaining in the Finals to catch DaveK.

5/25 update (Day 40): DaveK is 1 game away from wrapping this up with a Penguins win on Thursday. 103 - DaveK 97 - Goon 87 - petey23 84 - UND-RedSox fan 69 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 60 - Fetch 45 - Sicatoka II

5/24 update (Day 39): 96 - DaveK 95 - Goon 87 - petey23 83 - UND-RedSox fan 67 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 58 - Fetch 45 - Sicatoka II

5/23 update (Day 38) - includes updates from Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday night games: 96 - DaveK 94 - Goon 85 - petey23 82 - UND-RedSox fan 67 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 58 - Fetch 41 - Sicatoka II

5/20 update (Day 35) - no changes from yesterday: 92 - Goon 84 - petey23 84 - DaveK 81 - UND-RedSox fan 67 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 58 - Fetch 38 - Sicatoka II

5/19 update (Day 34): 92 - Goon 84 - petey23 84 - DaveK 81 - UND-RedSox fan 67 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 58 - Fetch 38 - Sicatoka II

Hennessy To Continue Calling Games

5/16 update (Day 31): 89 - Goon 84 - petey23 79 - UND-RedSox fan 76 - DaveK 66 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 57 - Fetch 37 - Sicatoka II

5/16 update (Day 31). This update also includes the Friday night Pitt/TB game: 87 - Goon 84 - petey23 79 - UND-RedSox fan 72 - DaveK 65 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 56 - Fetch 37 - Sicatoka II

So the Sharks defeat the Preds 5-0 and the only point that is scored in our game is Sicatoka II getting a goal from Joel Ward! How the heck did Burns not record a point? 5/13 update (Day 29): 84 - Goon 82 - petey23 78 - UND-RedSox fan 69 - DaveK 64 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 55 - Fetch 37 - Sicatoka II

And we have more departures - Benn, Seguin, Oduya, Lehtonen, and petey23 stays in the race with his 4 remaining Blues. 5/12 update (Day 28): 84 - Goon 82 - petey23 78 - UND-RedSox fan 69 - DaveK 64 - Sicatoka I 64 - Ray77 55 - Fetch 36 - Sicatoka II

We have a major development after last night's game. Many teams here had A LOT of people knocked out. The only goalies left are Lehtonen (Sicatoka II) and Fleury (DaveK) - who hasn't played a game. I've added below who people have remaining, and this list could pretty much become non-existent in the next 2 days should St. Louis and San Jose happen to lose. That'll basically just leave DaveK with his entire team remaining chasing Goon who'd have a few guys left for the championship. 5/11 update (Day 27): 84 - Goon (3F - Benn, Crosby, Seguin...2D - Burns, Hedman) 78 - UND-RedSox fan (2D - Burns, Letang) 78 - petey23 (2F - Backes, Tarasenko...2D - Pietrangelo, Shattenkirk) 69 - DaveK (entire team) 64 - Sicatoka I (2F - Crosby, Seguin) 64 - Ray77 (first team completely eliminated) 54 - Fetch (1F - Crosby...1D - Oduya) 31 - Sicatoka II (2F - Brouwer, Ward...2D - Oduya, Parayko...G - Lehtonen)

I always loved watching Neil Eisenhut as well. I'd have put him in the Greg Johnson category, he was so good...and then he blew out his knee in the SE corner by the Zamboni door....ugh...

5/10 update (Day 26): 82 - Goon 75 - UND-RedSox fan 75 - petey23 62 - Sicatoka I 59 - DaveK 59 - Ray77 52 - Fetch 31 - Sicatoka II
