2008 Playoff Pool: Stanley Cup Finals Update

posted by Chris Aung-Thwin at 13h11 EST on May 24

There’s only one series left in these 2008 NHL playoffs, but it’s the most important one of the bunch. After this, there will be only one.

One winner.

One champion.

One Habs Inside/Out hockey god.

(Oh, and I think Pittsburgh and Detroit are sparring over who will raise the Stanley Cup too.)

With at least four games left, there’s still a chance for several different people to grab the top spot in the inaugural Habs Inside/Out playoff pool. For those of you who have fallen out of contention, there is still hope that you can climb the ladder and best some of your fellow Inside/Outers.

Remember - the better that you do in the pool this year, the more that we all have to listen to you next year.

Good luck!

Chris,
I think I should have 217 points not 215, not that it matters.
Congrats to Taxman.

What is a shutout worth?

I just looked it up 2 points, now that's cheezy, a SO is much more difficult to achieve than a 2 pt performance.

Apology accepted. I didn't think I was that high.

My ultimate dream: Captain Saku Koivu skating around the Bell Centre holding the Stanley Cup.
