Actually, none of us is anywhere near the Kia. But RSS' internal race is close, and positions are changing everyday. I believe divis was leading just a couple of days ago?
Not post related, but for some reason, all your posts, for me, are coming up with the wrong time... futuristic posts if you like...
For instance, this post read 4:54am when the actual time was 4:30ish, wonder why? It's been happening for a while actually... and when I reply to your post, the reply will be times before the original post, LOL

My laptop's time is always about 10 minutes ahead of official time, but that's all. Maybe that's it? Even if that's the case, it might still not explain the difference you noticed, though...
FWIW, my post's time is 15h54 to me, which makes sense, as you should be +13h ahead.

I was briefly in the top 1800 a couple of games ago. Now our top
player is in the top 10000.
Good news for my picks is Elliot seems to be the St Louis starter now,
Bad news is Hossa is probably out for quite a while?

And coming up is the Pit vs Phla game, a rivalry almost as great as
the Flu vs Fla games in Brazil ( I think?) which is just begging for a
Penguins comeback.
My local team is doing quite well and may just pull off the upset?

I have Hossa too. My picks are a disaster. Luongo for instance. Have to give it more thought for round two, but I am surprised so far by Ottawa, Nashville, St. Louis (in spite of their strong league finish), Phoenix, LA and Florida - did not think all of those would be even or better in their series at this point.

Yep, me too. He was this close to a shutout yesterday. Since he's my star goalie, that would have meant two extra points in the bag.
> Bad news is Hossa is probably out for quite a while?
It appears so. A bummer for who picked him. Even if he hadn't scored in the series so far, I'm sure he would break the slump at some point. I like Hossa very much, great player.

I believe there's more bad blood in the PIT-PHI rivalry than between Fla-Flu. Fla-Flu is very traditional and very hyped, but it's not even among the top 5 football rivalries in Brazil, in terms of "hate".

I wish, but it's near impossible, even if they win tonight.
Only 3 teams have managed to come back from a 0-3 game deficit in the whole NHL history. It's not going to happen, unfortunately.

They do seem to be very confident in the series at this point? NYR are a good team, but highly beatable. I'd rather be playing them than Philly, there's no comparison.

They look likely to win tonight. I dont mind if it goes 7 games I have
got a couple of big Phla players

Will this become the highest scoring series since the invention of ice?
I'd like it to go to 7 games too, for obvious partisan reasons, and also because I have about 47 Penguins on my team.
And somehow none of them has gotten me a single point tonight so far!

FT, Penguins 3, Flyers 2.
The Pens live to fight another day. Good job by them to come back in this series and make it 2-3 after being down 0-3, especially after looking so bad in the first 3 games.
However, I'm afraid this is the moment Philadelphia regroups and seals the deal at home. We'll see.
Hockey pool relevant info. Fleury with the win (2 pts.), Giroux with an assist. Penguins get most of their production from the third line (Staal has 9 points in the series, ouch), so the usual suspects didn't get any points. Actually, Neal had an assist. I believe someone picked Neal.
In the other match tonight, 7'39'' to go, Nashville leads Detroit, 2-1. If the result stands, the Red Wings will be the first team to be eliminated this post-season. Radulov with a goal and an assist for NSH.

Detroit is one of those teams I always expect to advance, but I guess
those days are over. Nik Lidstrom will not be missed from my team
(0points)

I know, right? On paper, I've been thinking Nashville has as much of a
good chance as any other team to take the West, but then they get
paired against Detroit and I'm like "hm, I'm not going to pick Rinne,
because Detroit will find a way to advance".
A similar reasoning happened with Quick. I actually had Quick for a
moment as my Western goalkeeper, but thought that LA chances against
Vancouver were not that good.
Lots of goalies to like in the West, Quick, Elliott, Rinne. Jimmy
Howard is also good. A pity Elliott didn't start in the first two
games for Saint Louis.

Meanwhile in Denmark, Odense opened the playoffs with 10 wins in a row:
2 x 4-0 and a 2-0 lead in the final series. Then lost 2-8 (!) at home (!),
got back on track to make it 3-1, before losing the series 3-4.

Ouch. Any explanation for that? Too favorable matchups in the series leading to the finals? Team lost gas in the end? Major choke job?
