Sorry, i'm not playing as the habs anymore, playing as LA kings, maybe we will face at the stanley cup

[flexmaster33]

sorry guys..swamped at work, should be able to get an update up this weekend, along with Game 2s at least and hopefully into Games 3 and 4 of these first-round showdowns.

[flexmaster33]

Montreal beats Washington 8-3 in Game One of their series...I'll figure out the other available scores over the weekend and update the Scoreboard

[ricthefirst]

GO HABS GO
and they won 2-1 last against the caps,
Even though i am not on this team, i will forever love the montreal canadiens

[flexmaster33]

Sorry all...had to get a replacement part for my computer, so was dead over the weekend. Hoping to catch up on tourneys over today and possibly into Tuesday morning.

Flex, quick question, but I take it that army accumulation caps after 12 rounds as well? Is it the same case for the power plays? But you can still pick up the extra shot bonus and what not for winning after 12?

[flexmaster33]

correct...I'll get Game One scores up tonight so you'll have a better idea what's going on...also Game 2 maps should be sent...after the Blazers game of course...go Portland!!!

Sounds good.... I tried doing the math for my match with Amazony (which if the first set of games is any indication will be a 7 game war.) but am not sure if I did it right. I'll be cheering on Portland tonight with ya Flex, Roy is a warrior! As far as hockey goes, Hallack is playing like a man possessed tonight.

Most of the Game 1s are finished...bracket and results are updated (see the top three posts in the thread). Game 2s will be going out before I hit the sack.

[flexmaster33]

OK...I juggled things a bit...the bracket and the current batch of Game boxscores are in the opening post...in the second post you'll find a game-by-game score recap for each series.

[flexmaster33]

Game 1s are complete -- One major note...I criss-crossed numbers when adding the Boston-Buffalo score and had to make a correction...the final score for that one has changed to 4-3 Buffalo (see boxscore).

A few of the Game 2s have gone final with Montreal winning 5-3 to take a 2-0 series lead over Washington. Check out the updated boxscores in the top post. Games only show a final score when all five maps have been finished.

Game 3s will go out Thursday morning/afternoon.

Good luck all, the chase for the Cup is on!!!

PS -- My apologies to Boston for the mix-up...I should have caught that before posting.

[notyou2]

I'm confused. I can accept that Boston lost the first game but I don't understand why. Boston won the actual games played 3 - 2 over Buffalo

[flexmaster33]

It all comes down to how the matchups come out...a great save % can overcome a load of shots (that's what happened in this case)...like in the real NHL, a hot goalie can save a team. In adding up scores so far, that Save % map seems to carry a bit more weight (which is by design).

Win four of the five maps and it would be near impossible to lose the game...but if it's a 3/2 split the game could go either way depending on a bunch of factors...save %, # of power plays, etc.

Again, sorry for the confusion on that one.

[flexmaster33]

Bracket and boxscores updated...most series are still going in Game 2s and 3s...I plan to send out Game 4s either Monday or Tuesday

[flexmaster33]

Brackets have been updated and game 4s have been sent out...we'll soon know if any one is going down with a first-round sweep!!!

[Electricksabers]

Flex I think something happened, we only got one game 6921986

Thanks

SB

[flexmaster33]

yep...my mouse was glitchy...I'll send out the other four late tonight.

[flexmaster33]

The Eastern Conference is completely through Game 3 of the first round...all East boxscores have been updated...I'll try to get a fresh bracket and Western boxes up later tonight.

[flexmaster33]

Hi all...I was hopeful of getting Game 5s out before I left town for the weekend, but alas I've run out of time. I'll post a fresh update and send out Game 5s when I return home Monday. Have a good weekend all...I know I will!!! Heading to the beach.
