Vulgar Statistics: Stanley Cup Playoffs Final Thoughts And BBG Playoff Pool Standings
I will be brief since I have no intention of rehashing what you all just watched. Even though the Kings ran through a Sedin-less Canucks team, a Pietrangelo-hobbled and Halak-less Blues team, a Torres-less Coyotes team, and a Kovalchuk-hobbled devils team, the manner in which they did so proved that they clearly deserved to win the Stanley Cup. A heartfelt congratulations to them, to their long suffering fans, and to Jeff Carter and Mike Richards. RIP Los Angeles booze, you will be missed.
BBG Playoff Pool Final Results:
I’ll throw in the “experts” I tracked too just for fun. A correct series pick garnered a win, an incorrect series pick garnered a loss, and an incorrect series pick of seven games in a series that did go seven games garnered a tie.
