Stanley Cup Playoff BIF - 2017 edition

We had to evolve it in order to accommodate 8 people, so it turned into each person drafts 2 teams, snake style. My original idea may have been too bold...

 

I'm doing the draft order later on today or tomorrow - since we changed up a little (lot) I want to make sure everyone is cool with what we are doing before I move along to draft.

@BuffaloBill12 , @st9647v3 , @Dereksbrew , @johnyb , @Damian74

You guys checked in before the latest changes, so in order to keep everything cool and transparent, and no "that's not what I thought we were doing" problems, let me know that you are good with the following;

8 players pick 2 teams, 2 snaking draft rounds.

4 boxes to winner, 2 to runner up. If that ends up being the same person, we'll do a draft amongst those not in the finals to pick one player to see who doesn't have to ship (that's my working solution to the orphaned placeholder scenario at least)

You guys down for that?

 

Alright folks, here's the order. Remember, it snakes, so @Dereksbrew has two consecutive picks.

After your selection, tag next up.

Pick # Team Name
1 Johnyb
2 st9647v3
3 BuffaloBill12
4 Damian74
5 Lazhal
6 jpatag66
7 gopens44
8 Dereksbrew

Good luck!

 

Blues

@Dereksbrew you're up and you are at the turn - select 2

 

By the way, that gif drop was money. Unless of course it was an incredibly obscure reference to a team other than the Wild......

 

Leafs for the upset and miracle run!
