    BUMP.

    Also if it's cool with y'all my wife wants to get in on this as well (she's a huge HOCKEY fan)....

    She's not on the good traders list but I'll vouch for her LOL.....

    And don't worry, I already told her it's a 5-cigar entry fee, and she said "that's fine, I planned on just getting them from your humidor."

    SMH, woman

    So just to make sure I am not missing anything here. There is nothing to fill out yet correct? I know nothing about hockey so I will definitely be in on this.
    Team O'Donnell FTW!

    Correct

    the brackets will go live this Sunday ... (As playoff teams/positions won't be determined until the regular season games end on sat)

    You will have about a week to fill out your bracket, before playoff games start.
    I will post the official info/schedule to this thread when I see it

    Alright, I have a couple more "participants" listed in the OP (15 total) --- than I'm seeing on the NHL site (11) ....

    So if you haven't signed up on NHL.com yet, get on it!!!

    But if I saw you post in this thread and added you to the list of "participants" but you didn't actually want to play LMK and I'll take you off the list.



    ALSO --- after you select each "pick", make sure you pick the "# of games" that it will take to complete that series in the dropdown.
