Here's a chance for Balrog to defend the title.
Same format as before.
Pick one team (that's 1 team) to lose from Tuesdays list of games.
You are eliminated if the team you have selected wins or ties.
Last man standing wins a prize (Yes, I still have lots of stuff that isn't going back into the basement).
I will post the next game dates to choose from.
I will need a home mailing address from the winner to send out the prize.
All states and provinces are eligible. :)
Dallas at Boston @ 7pm
Minnesota at Ottawa @ 7pm
Anaheim at Tampa Bay @ 7pm
Islanders at Toronto @ 7:30pm
Rangers at Jersey @ 7:30pm
LA at Pittsburgh @ 7:30pm
Columbus at Nashville @ 8pm
Philadelphia at Chicago @ 8:30pm
Edmonton at Colorado @ 9pm
Atlanta at Vancouver @ 10pm
Post your picks here and then check back for next round of games.

The Atlanta pick isn't looking so hot either. I was thinking of changing my pick today, seeing how it's Hartley's return to Denver...

Sharks have won their last 2 games; however, that was against Columbus and Calgary.

2-0 Sharks. Where are Naslund and Bertuzzi when you need them? :-)

Naslund is too busy sitting in the box while SJ scores on the PP. Guess they don't care if their streak ends tonight...

Ouch, with Atlanta winning, and the Sharks winning 3-0, looks like 18 eliminated from those 2 games alone..

Only 5 guys are left alive... sR, Urmas, Filthy Rich, C.Superfreaks, and the defending champ, Balrog.
That was quick.

Urmas, s R, Balrog all picked incorrectly. Thus by default remain in. You can either choose to split the prize or continue until a champ is determined.
Balrog, your "prize" is in the mail and on it's way.
Filthy Rich, unfortunately no pick has eliminated you.

As I was watching the OT of Rangers-Islanders, I wondered - how does an OT loss count - as a loss or not? It is a loss, but the team does get 1 point. Just curious...

Balrog, I have sent you your prize, I hope it clears customs (it doesn't tick or anything like that). I've not really sent any items to the USA. Now that I think of it I have only received stuff. Anyway I hope all works out with all this post 9/11 security.
I had to use bulk mail and it's going over land so they asked me a value of the gift. I said about $30 cdn. I hope you don't get dinged for customs tax cause the prize is only worth about $2.50 cdn. (I said 30 bucks so that if it does get lost I can claim that the post office screwed me out of 30 bucks)
I also factored in the cost of bubble wrap, the special envelope, postage, and the baggie :)).
There's a baggie? well it's not dope.
I don't know the time it takes going by land...let's give it 2 weeks. lol
