Updated the scores.

1st Slurmee/Kit 89 (No idea whose winning the tiebreaker)
3rd Kreeg 88
4th Kong 79
5th Clay 54
6th 0 pointer 48

I updated the stats from Saturday.

I have overtaken Kreeg now.

None of the teams we picked are 1st

Kits the first team to have everyone with more than 10 points.

The Sedins suck and I thought they'd be doing way better at this point.

2018 WJHC

2. Sweden
3. USA
4. Czech

Stays up: Denmark
Moves up: Kazakhstan

Canada vs. Sweden was one of the best hockey games I've watched at this level. Great back and forth play, no grindy bullshit and pushing each other around after every whistle. Just high-flying, hard-skating hockey. Lots of big saves, and a couple pretty goals.

Welcome back Mike Fisher!

Let's get him a Cup.

1. Olympics

Congrats to the US women and OAR men on their gold medals! The US vs. CAN women's games are always among the most entertaining hockey games to watch because they're so closely matched. It was nice to see the German men do so well this time around as well. Datsyuk and Kovalchuk add some more bling to their blingchests.

2. NHL

The trade deadline was decently interesting this year, but nothing too crazy.

• Detroit sent Tomas Tatar to the Golden Knights. If they sign him to a long-term contract, he can be one of the first real building blocks for that team.
• Vancouver sent Vanek to the Blue Jackets. Columbus also got Mark Letestu in a round-about way.
• St. Louis sent Paul Stastny to the Jets. Great pickup for the Jets, especially given the strong season they're having.
• Buffalo sent Evander Kane to the Sharks.
• Montreal sent Plekanec to the Maple Leafs. Pretty solid acquisition for Toronto.
• Tampa Bay sent captain Ryan McDonagh to the Rangers in a pretty big trade.
• New York also sent washed-up Rick Nash to Boston. Boston also signed out-of-NHL Gionta back into the league for a season.

Updated the scores sorry about not doing it for 3 months.

1st - Slurmee - 478
2nd - Kreegs - 413
3rd - Kong Wen - 377
4th - Kitroplious - 366
5th - Claytone - 291
6th - 0 pointer - 284

Preds are the first team to clinch a playoff spot!

I will be adding in the +5 points for correct answers as they become confirmed.

Worth noting 5 of the 14 teams picked to win the division are already out of the race for their division title.

There's a total of 50 points up for grabs from the extra questions. 20 for Stanley Cup and 5 for each other correct answer.

I'm really pulling for the Jets, Knights, and Predators this year. The West is going to be a wild ride.

Boston Clinched today, Chicago was officially knocked out yesterday I believe.

Chicago being knocked out means kreegs won't be getting the Stanley cup question correct making it that much hard for him to catch up to me while there's still a 70 point gap between us while it leaves the opportunity for Kong to catch him if Pittsburgh can knock off Washington for the top spot and can go on and win the cup giving kong the ability to score 30 more points closing the gap to 413 v 421.

The fight for 3rd place is still wide open with Kong on 383 and Kit on 369.

While the 0 pointer team is the first team to have scored extra points with Chicago missing the playoffs and is now only 4 points behind Clay however Clay should be netting 10 extra points from Nashville finishing 1st and Vegas finishing above Colorado. While it's still possible Vegas and Nashville could still choke it's very unlikely with the leads they both have.

Also Nathan MacKinnon is having a fantastic season
