Logan Couture was pretty awesome last night.

And I would not have expected Joe Pavelski to be the leading point scorer so far in this pool.

Updated Standings

Chedda first person to get team points, he was the only one who picked San Jose. Nobody had picked the Canucks, but there were a handful of Sedins and Kesslers.

No elimination games tonight.

I didn't get my SJ series win points in your rankings, unless I missed it somewhere.

Tough group. Scored 16 points last night and dropped down 2 spots!

Definitely not as much as a blood bath as last year. Buffsoldier doesn't lose a single player, everyone else has lost at least 2.

The three previous times around, I put real thought into this.

This year? Maybe 5, 10 minutes.

Lars Eller sucked for me, too. But, he scored almost as much for me as Ovechkin did.

I think I need Brandon Saad to get a hat-trick in all of the remaining games. Otherwise I am just going to fall farther and farther behind even if my other Hawks ring up points.
And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.

Heading out to the (internet/TV free) cabin for May Long Weekend, so probably won't be another update until Tuesday Morning.

Only 30 out. I think Saad is due for a 6 point game or so.

Yeah, with all my eggs in the Hawks basket, I don't think a big comeback is in my future.

My players are dropping like flies! It's a game of attrition, and I'm losing that one!

I absolutely have to have the Hawks win tonight or I'll be back in the bottom half before this thing is over.

After they ruled the Hawks goal off all I could think about was how much that screwed my SwampPool chances. I was pleasantly surprised that they won in OT - had convinced myself there was no way they were coming back from 3-1 down and that call.

I don't think I lost any more players.

But the playoffs are 80% finished.

CANNONBALL!

You guys are really out of reach. I think I need CHI to play PIT in the finals and then get extremely lucky to compete.

Thanks for the update!

Bensell poised for a run in the Finals here!!! He should definitely move up the board. Can he move all the way up to the top, though, that's the question?
