Good morning, Ek.

Good morning, Kaptaan.

Good morning, Beatle John.

Ek, you know I love you, right?

If Toronto and Boston both finish with 95 points, Boston wins the tie-breaker.

But I am confident that next year's playoff predictor will be truly fantastic.

To the aforementioned (not including Ek of course):

I couldnt read this whole thing after kappy scores, can anyone explain? Does anyone want too? My head hurts from last night's game.what predictions is he talking about

Is Taylor Swift pointing to kaptaan? or beat_off

Let me get this straight, this was updated this morning, the Rangers have 100 pts with 1 game left & they are going to finish with a 104 pts?

Congrats to the Leafs and their fans you deserve it. Hope you give the Caps a run for their money and beat them

Literally EVERY TIME you posted the projected standings (including today) there were multiple errors and impossible results. And it's not like they were difficult to catch. Kind of like how every post of yours is riddled in spelling / grammar errors. First rule of journalism school: never proof read or edit your work.

You found out yourself that Toronto couldn't be 3rd in Atlantic with 95 points and changed it to 96... Maybe there's some hope for you after all, Ek

good post, bad posts, whether people like or dislike your blogs and rumours...

Eklund, you're always a classy guy.

thanks

OK, so now I'm a little puzzled.

I was led to believe that your predictions were based upon 12 factors, and you pored over these factors and used a mathematical formula to predict the winners of individual games.

So this morning, I was disheartened to learn that you were predicting Columbus to beat Toronto in regulation time.

But after I noticed a small mathematical error in your standings, rather than change the standings, you simply changed the prediction - stating that Columbus would win in overtime.

What happened to the original prediction? Why do you now feel that Columbus will not win in regulation time?

Something smells fishy, Ek.

went 3-1 in the 4 games I bet the opposite of ek


grabbed a quick $100

paid my cell phone bill and a bottle of black label crown this morning with the profits

leafs over blue jackets
flyers over canes
pens over rangers
sens over islanders


my 4 pack for the day

Nicely done.

While the Boston series had a horrific ending, I do agree that it shouldn't matter that much anymore. For all that sucked, it was important. If that team had squeezed into the second round who knows what would have happened going forward or even if they hadn't made it entirely. Every crappy thing about that lead to the events that resulted in this current group.

A lot had to go right to get this team. And nice to see things moving forward again.

NYI OTW over SENS would give the Sens 99 pts on the year.

trying to kiss the emperor's ass doesn't fix the stench in the outhouse

Has anyone mentioned that ROW stands for Regulation/Overtime Win?

Ek, you never fail to show your true colors. The Leafs beat an AHL team (barely) with the help of your so called Hockey Gods.

Did you even waste the time to watch that game?

Poorly officiated and despite that they STILL sweated it out. If that is a desperate Toronto team, the Craps are celebrating that outcome because that is a sweep in the making for their first round.

Best of luck to Your Flyers on their Playoff Tee Times. Hope they don't get stuck behind slow moving groups.

Yes, Kessel and Crosby are AHL players.

And your goon team felt the need to run the goalie. Rot goes from the top to the bottom of that lineup. Hope Crosby gets what's coming to him. Part of me is happy they punished the Pens on the scoreboard, but I wouldn't have minded seeing one of the 4th liners taking off one of Crosby's nuts or fingers.

how convenient that the "hockey gods" somehow revolve around toronto

hockey gods:

"lets KO their starting goalie!"

having got the trolling out of the way:

if Leafs draw Sens instead of Caps they have a decent shot of making 2nd round.

combined with the fact that I think edmonton will beat San Jose, and i'm not that optimistic about calgary vs anaheim, this could be a rougher playoffs for me than id hoped

This is a very well thought out rebuttal. Thank you for sharing.
