Correct your stats to show the games you predicted in overtime but finished in regulation or you predicted in regulation but went to overtime. Those are incorrect predictions asshat.

On March 12...Ek claimed to go 6-2. But actually went 5-3. Anyone can go back and see that.

So you are not 55-20. But 54-21. Well actually 73-40 but after a terrible start you hit re-set and started over.

I like the total lack of faith in Seattle, but I don't think it will bear out.

so with 15 games to go the LA Kings have 85 points. You predict them to win tonight meaning they will have 87points with 14 games left. and you predict they will only get 10 pints in those 14 games?

It's almost like the favored teams win more than they lose.....

he said a few weeks ago that the Sabres will finish with 78 pts they had 68 at the time with 21 games to go, now he has them finishing at 97.

If your predictions beat the spread I'll consider them useful. Otherwise it is meaningless.

Toronto already has 18 reg losses and your prediction model shows them finishing the season at 52-17-13 for 117 points. It's not only impossible to end with fewer losses than they currently have, they would have to finish the season 14-1-1 to hit 117 points, and I suspect that is NOT what the Buzztron is really predicting they will do.

After the trade deadline, this site starts to look like a betting site.

D00d! The Panginz need those standings points. We need to win tonight. Habs played last night and are on the road.

But I ain't no computer spreadsheet automagical prediction machine...

Will there be any acknowledgement of this? You went 5-3 and the next day boasted about going 6-2. Anyone can look this up. March 12.

he does this every year, it's intentional. it gets people to comment and return to the page making fun of the mistake. he's trolling the trolls for ad revenue.

Nope Ek got it right. All the retardation of Hextard and Sullivan were on display. Fire them both.

And your take on predicting OT correctly or not Ek?

Nice call on Montreal defeating Pittsburgh.

What would be interesting to see is your record on the picks where you selected the underdog to win.

Doing some quick manual calculation, over the past few days:
2-0
1-0
2-1
3-0
0-0
2-2

Total 10-3. That's pretty impressive actually in this small sample size. If you can consistently pick the underdogs at a .500+ rate, then I can quit my day-job!

It's incredibly tough to predict exact OT results. IMO he should stick to just 2-way winners and losers. Though he has been pretty accurate at predicting when games would be close and I think he has even nailed a few exact OT results.

I agree, but when these predictions are supposed to feed into the Buzztron, which projects the final standings, it needs to be predicted to consider the loser points affecting the placements of each team...

so is it really correct for Eklund to say he was 'right'?

Those two weeks will still be more exciting than anything your team has offered the last two seasons.

You haven’t had a home playoff game in 7 years.
