NHL Playoff Bracket
I'd like to start one for the forum here, but I don't know of any good host sites. Anyone know a good host site for a playoff bracket pool?

Would be nice to get something started.
I played the timmies hockey pool this year, got a few weeks of coffee and enough points for a meal or two which is nice.

Would love one too.
Not sure I like the "bracket" system though. Previous Sportsnet playoff pools didn't do anything for me.
We used to have playoff pools picking actual players. So, if you guess right as to who will move on...your odds of winning are better. Also more challenging.
Trochu...any ideas how we could get one of them "locally" going here? Kinda like the poker nights that used to be played here? Using the player "snake system"?...

Well, I'd rather do the pick players for the first round, second round, then 3rd and 4th round, but I haven't found one like that yet and I'm running out of time.
ESPN has a simple bracket pool, which I figure is better than nothing.

Password is "dangle" if you'd care to join.
If you guys want to throw $5 buck in or something, I can coordinate that as well.

Thanx Trochu!
I'm in and will go along any side bets the majority feel is adequate. Just supply your addy for etransfer if we do it.
So the trashing starts...Go Carolina!...

Thanks Trochu! I'm good with a side bet if others are game. I've still got my first place $66 regular season winnings from last year burning a hole in my pocket

Tip for the ones that signed up.
You can put your AO "name" so all know who you are.
Go to "Dashboard". You will see your espn fan number. Hit the "sun" like logo on the right of it. Delete the entry name, put your name, and save.
Voila...and good luck to all...
