Cool, thanks b_b, so we will have between Saturday night and Wednesday prior to 7 to make our selections.

This is going to be fun, I'm a much bigger hockey fan than I am college basketball. What sucks is we recently decided to get rid of our cable. Looks like I'll be heading out to the pub to watch the games. That is unless cliffelam wants to get in on this? Do you have cable neighbor?

Unfortunately the 'Canes missed out this year. Would have made it more fun in your neck of the woods.

Yeah, I'm hoping to get out for more games next year. This is our first year here, we just moved and have a 1 year old. Haven't had much time to watch any hockey or really anything else this year. I'm going to have to do some research between now and Wednesday to figure out who I'm going with in each series.

Bear in mind (for everyone's benefit) that teams are reseeded every round in the NHL. Its not a simple tournament bracket.

That's right, so we'll be re-picking as each round closes and the next match ups are announced. Is that how it will work? Sorry, as the coordinator of this, I'm rather uncoordinated.

I guess we'll have to wait until the matchups are set, and the bracket is loaded onto the site. Maybe the website fills the bracket in for you after you choose the 1st round???
