I think it would be really cool if a guy would like say a team, and evrebody would say what he predict for the game

EX:

GUY: Detroit vs Colorado

ehmuser1: COL 2 - DET 1
ehmuser2: COL 0 - DET 5
ehmuser3: COL 3 - DET 0

Do you understand? are you interested? I could do it, I think that I come each day!

I don't know if it's planned to be done again this season but I remember in the past there was a "prediction league". It was done over in the "Games and Competitions" forum. Take a look over there.

A prediction league for all 82 games could be interesting... With the amount of people who'd play it'd be a lot of work for whoever runs it though...

Yeah, I know somebody did it for the playoffs. A full season one would be huge.

I did something like this last year for myself. I had all NHL games in an excel sheet, and each day I predicted all the games, with Excel tracking my record and some stats. I only predicted winners and losers, though - no scores. With scores, the wins/losses would be too heavily lopsided... and not in favor of wins, either.

It was a lot of fun, and would probably create a great game here. I couldn't imagine hosting it, though. That would be a chore.

[thinking to himself] ...I wonder if the budding programmer in me could write a program for something like this... or somehow take the chore out of it so it would be simple to host here and play...

On with the thinking cap, and off to the lab! :cavalry:

WASHINGTON CAPITALS VS BOSTON BRUINS

I say: 4 WAS - 1 BOS

and all of you?

Post by **getzlaf15** » Thu Oct 01, 2009 6:55 pm

Washington 3 - Boston 5: Varlamov with a shaky start... B's capitalize

I'm game for this......Bruins 4 Capitals 2. Ovechkin gets a pair before the start of the third, but Chara and company shut the Caps down in the third.

TIm Thomas gets off to a great start to his new season. In his first of 5 straight games.......

Washington 7 Boston 3.

The toughest part of this B72....is that is the fewest # of goals Thomas allows in his first 5 starts. Rask will be the starter there in November.

Why? Because I just dropped him in the pool.

Blah blah blah... I hear you talking but all that's coming out of your mouth is nonsense.

B's over Caps, 5-3. Lucic kicks off the scoring. Bergeron with the game winning goal. Ryder with the empty-netter to seal the victory.

selne · Post by **selne** » Thu Oct 01, 2009 8:32 pm

Expecting a high scoring game. Bruins 6 Caps 5. Ovechkin off the scoresheet.

Post by **batdad** » Thu Oct 01, 2009 9:15 pm

Ryder gets hurt in the first, so that empty netter will have to be early eh. And I hate to tell you but even though I love Milan..he gets tossed for losing his jersey after instigating a fight against some Capital twit who smoked Ryder causing Ryder to fly into Savard...both leave the game with upper body injuries, and both are placed on IR for 28 weeks.

If I really just wrote that, Catchup is going to quote it forever.

Edit: Scratched it out.

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 2:20 pm

Well my prediction didn't go well.

Post by **batdad** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 3:26 pm

My prediction was awful close there B72

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 3:30 pm

Not that close.

Post by **batdad** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 3:31 pm

Close enough to bother you though.

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 3:42 pm

No, it was their uninspired play that bothered me.

Laker2415 · Post by **Laker2415** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 4:14 pm

I'm just happy I got Ovechkin's pair of goals correctly

What's the game for today?

Post by **getzlaf15** » Fri Oct 02, 2009 6:55 pm

Chicago vs Florida...

I call 1-1 after 2 periods not sure of the final score though.

Just kidding, not sure, EHMfans will be around later to announce it...
