    0-0 after the 1st. The equipment manager starts packing the bus between periods and the rest of the team is on the phone with US Air getting flights to Florida.

    5-0 Pens

    Rolston plays to win, we'd have made the playoffs if he was there from game 1. He doesn't lay down or play for the tie if possible, LOL.

    This team is so hormonal, like the goalie.

    Final Game should be double style... bet your points to get more.

    So basically if you have enough points, you can win the whole season by getting one game right?

    2 points here:

    1.) The whole regular season is not being played, so whoever gets to the shortened finish line first wins but there will always be a * . Like hitting a hole in one from the ladies tee per se, you did it but did you really do it ?

    2.) There's a chance YR or me could catch you but you'll know for sure that you won it or not by the last game, after you win it / it's game over unless you do this. I would also prefer to not get passed but if it helps make the last game more exciting, then there's something to it.

    or if you get it wrong, you lose the entire season :)

    So Sabre11 can bet all his points, and then lose them all.

    What if we do this, make your guess for the Islander game and if you get the score correct, you can move to #1 and everybody else moves down one rank. Kind of like the NHL lottery.

    The only problem with that is it completely eliminates everything done to this point, the idea is for everyone to have some type of chance to move up. Interesting idea though.

    Whatever the group wants to do.
