Welcome back for the 3rd annual NHL Playoff Bracket Challenge!  

Now that a couple teams have clinched playoff spots, and a couple have been statistically eliminated, I figured I'd go ahead and get this setup. 

Same deal as the last 2 years, brackets are hosted on NHL.com/Bracket, using their scoring system.

    I will be in on this again, maybe I won't pick St. Louis to win it this year they suck in the playoffs.  Also for you St. Louis people I picked them to win the last two years, so I am not poking fun at them just myself.

    Does anyone outside of St Louis really think the blues will get past the first round.

    History would say no but there is always hope.  They keep playing like they have the last couple weeks and it looks pretty good!

    Life is too short to smoke bad cigars!!!

    Oh when the Blues, Oh when the Blues, Oh when the Blues go marching in!

    Might have to do this again. I know nothing about hockey besides the fact you kick a ball through a post and do cartwheels.
    Team O'Donnell FTW!

    I'll go with a Canadian team because they know how to play hockey.

    Good choice. With how many teams they have in the playoffs the odds are with them.
