FIRST ROUND PLAYOFF RESULTS
This week's Schedule :

JustLou vs. DMC

Plaw vs. The Iceman


There is also a 5th place consolation round :

Don Cardi vs. Don Pelosi


Good luck to the four finalists!


Don Cardi

I was wondering why there were an odd number of teams playing this week.

I've searched high an low over the site and for the life of me cannot figure out why DMC moves on to the next round instead of me after we tied in the first round, and I finished with a better overall regular season record. I can't figure out what constitutes a tie breaker.

Maybe you'll see something that I don't Lou?

Where's Plaw when you need him?


Don Cardi

I looked, and have no idea.

Ok, I finally found it. Here's how it works in the event of a tie during the playoffs :

In the event that a playoff game ends in a tie, the deadlock will be broken using the following system:

Most team goals.

Most team assists.

Lowest team GAA.

Highest team SV%.

Most team wins.

Most team shutouts.

Most team powerplay points.

Most team game-winning goals.

Most team penalty minutes.

Most team plus/minus.

Random "coin flip."


Don Cardi

I knew what the tiebreaker was...I looked earlier in the week so I was sure to know what to play for if I had too many guys one day at one position.

I wasn't gonna say that during the week, though.

BTW, the remaining teams are the four semi-finalists. :p

Thank you Simon Cowell! :p


Don Cardi

Chara and Redden picked a fine time to take a week off.

If my math is correct it looks like I am moving on to the finals.....

*Uses George Mason towel to wipe the sweat from his head*

Congrats. I learned a lesson about having too many players from one team. I never thought about checking the schedule when we started the playoffs. It also totally blows that you can replace injured players. I didn't think it would even be close not having two D-men all week.

Lou, you confuse me with that one. Are you talking about being allowed to replace an injnured player on your team, during the playoffs, who is put on the IR by the NHL?


Don Cardi

What is it that they say about the blind squirrel?

They weren't put on IR. Chara is probably out 2 weeks, and Redden left the team indefinitely for personal reasons.

Holy shit(please pardon my language ) I don't believe I'm in the championship game, I never thought I'd be in it condidering how my season went, especially early on.

Course the last time DMC & I played I got my butt killed, hopefully this time will be different

Well either way good luck to the both of us DMC, and may I say this whole experience has been a lot of fun.

I've always been a fan of hockey, but this has taught me quite a bit about the game.

CHAMPIONSHIP GAME

Congratulations to DonMichaelCorleone & TheIceman who will face each other this week to determine who will be the Champion of the GangsterBB Fantasy Hockey League.

In a major upset DMC, who finished 5th in the regular season standings, defeated JustLou, who ran away with first place in the regular season, 6 - 3.

The Iceman spanked Plaw's Left WIngers 8 - 2 in semi final play last week.


Don Cardi

the finals are over 2 weeks long

With one week left to go in the playoffs, DMC leads JustLou 6 - 3.


Playoff Standings through: Sun, Apr 9


Don Cardi

WTF is this? I haven't been playing because I thought I lost last week????

Well Lou, you still have a chance. Get your line-up set for these final games. This playoff series goes until the final day of the regular NHL season, which is Tuesday the 18th.

Good luck.


Don Cardi

I have no idea what is going on. I lost to DMC. It now says I'm playing PL last week and this week?

We're playing for third place. :p

I figured you hadn't been setting your team because you were just disgusted, so I wasn't paying real close attention to mine either.

If you're gonna start playing I guess I'd better get on the ball.

Ok. I saw DC post an update with me playing DMC so I was would have been pissed if that series was 2 weeks long. I hadn't set my roster in over a week, but I guess I'll set it this week.

I don't think I did mine more than 3 or 4 days last week, but if you're gonna play now.....

I'm dropping Voukon because he has been placed on IR for remainder of the season.

My mistake. TheIceman is playing DMC for the Championship and JustLou is playing Plaw for third place.


Don Cardi

Congratulations to DONMICHAELCORLEONE the GangsterBB Fantasy Hockey Champion!


Here are the final results :

It was good to have Hockey back this season and next year I think that I will go to a Points Only Scoring System.

I played in another Fantasy Hocley League which used a points only scoring system ( finished in 2nd place btw ) and as Plaw correctly pointed out, that style of scoring is much more realistic and is more fairer than head to head play.

So I hope to see more GangsterBB members playing Fantasy hockey next season, which by the way is only 6 months away!


Don Cardi

I didn't play this year, but congrats to (Geoff's Bitch) er...uh...DMC, (Iceman, the quiet one) er...uh...The Ice Picks, (Our Favourite Liberal) Plaw's Left Wingers (hey what about me? oh what, I'm the most hated Canadian liberal on this board? You don't think that's just a tad harsh eh? What have I ever? Oh, that eh? Well I'm sorry man, there was a reason...man. Er...uh...well, I'm sorry woman, reason's don't matter to women I know, so I had a feeling. I'm sorry woman. I'm sorry I had the feeling alright? No reason. Oh, not good enough? What attention? No, I'll let you worry about that...stupid. Sorry. Just sorry every body for what? Men. Whatever. Nevermind. Women, I haven't the slightest Goddamn, motherfreakin, are you freakin kiddin me, what are you really serious here, foggiest, centimetre or a clue? Emotion or reason? No clue, don't know, don't ask, don't tell, go to hell, me too. bye now!). :p :rolleyes:

P.S. those who didn't top 3 I'm very disappointed in you and try harder next time...seriously man, try harder. j/k It's cool, it's good that you have an interest in HOCKEY. Seeya next season Allah willing.

I'm still bitter that the rosters were locked for the playoffs, and my team was forced to play only 2 defensemen the entire series. Makes no sense to me.

What exactly happened to the two guys you lost that weren't on IR?
