The Swamp

Update from Thursday night

My whole life depends on the goal.

Update for Friday and Saturday (the 3 game sevens). Here's where we stand going into round 3.



Degen has Islanders and Stars, Chedda has Knights and Lightning. Not over yet.

Glad I encouraged Travzilla to do this. Bringing up the bottom..Thanks Trav..but seriously...thanks for doing this.

No problem, I enjoy it. I remember now that I think in the past I came up with a way to add new players, maybe after each round, so that it doesn't fizzle out at the end with too many players eliminated. I'll figure that out for next year.


Here's the update after game 1 in both series:



(note: I'm just going to post updates every second day, after both the series play a game.)

Low scoring game 2s, but Chedda closes the gap on Degen...

game 3's update:

game 4's update

Well, the bookies are still big on VGK, both my standing in this pool and the Bolts raising the Cup would be greatly enhanced by a Vegas run starting right now, led by Smith and Karlsson.

I could really use Brayden Point staying healthy as well.

Thanks for doing this, Travzilla.

(sorry for delayed updates... had some busy workdays)

Heading into the finals...



Chedda and Giff have a lightning advantage but Degen is almost certainly too far ahead. Not sure how you knew to make half your roster Stars and Islanders but brilliant foresight!

Just went out on a limb and got lucky. The Stars are only here because of Flames incompetence.

Final Standings:



Congrats Dgen!

Trying to think of some ways to increase the action in the last few rounds. I think some kind of roster turnover between rounds would be nice (which I think I did last time?). Trying to find a balance between an easy, one time entry like an office march madness pool and something more interactive for people who like to stay involved.
Also open to patenting and selling to Draft Kings ;)

Thanks for doing this, Trav!

What an absolute ass kicking by Degen. Fucking tip your cap and get em next year.

Thanks Trav! This is my favorite “fantasy” pool of the year. You the best.

Thanks trav

This really is great. Thanks, Trav! Nice work, Degen!

I'm clearly the most impressive.

I might've won had I understood!
