It's that time of year again. The hockey press is buzzing about the Leaf's chances of finally winning Lord Stanley's cup. I'm trying to figure out how we can have an SN sats contest predicting the exact game of which round the Leaf's fans' souls will be crushed this year. Any input is appreciated.

Is this the official post where we make our predictions or are you planning to do a separate post?

I don't know. What do you suggest?

I say do another post opening the predictions and just add the sats from this one to the pot. Pot will likely get more sats that way.

I don't want to zap my own post. That ain't fair given MSM stuff. How about I zap @grayruby 1967 and we add it to the pot?

Maple Leafs fans are the NHL version of Cowboy fans... as both teams are the absolute best at choking in the playoffs

I think we need a separate fantasy prediction post for that "possibility".

The tin cup, not the stanley cup.

I'm sure that they'll be one of the best teams this year amongst the subset of teams that have only won one round of the playoffs in 20 years.

Knowing the leafs it will be in a game 7 when they lead the series 3-1 beforehand.

I saw we just pick the round and game. Zap the pot, closest without going over wins the pot.

Sounds fair. I will personally zap @kr 5000 sats in the unlikely event that .... I can't even type it.

So I guess all picks must be in before the start of the first round?

Hawks will be the crusher of their souls most probably.

Media won't be there if it doesn't cheer for people's voices. They need to sell, so they are buzzing.

Hawks are winning it this time.

Siggy is talking about hockey. I think you are referring to the Hawks in basketball because the Hawks in hockey are definitely not winning the cup, as they did not make the playoffs.
