Alright. NHL 14 bracket has been created. Here are your seedings (based on regular season voting and playoff seedings).

In the "Western" Conference (Foster Hewitt):

1 St. Louis v 8 Spokane Chiefs (WHL fodder)
2 Seattle v 7 Prince George Cougars (WHL fodder)
3 LA Kings v 6 NY Rangers
4 Iceland v 5 Hartford

In the "Eastern" Conference (Danny Gallivan):

1 California v 8 Shawnigan Cataractes (QMJHL fodder)
2 Montreal v 7 St Johns Sea Dogs (QMJHL fodder)
3 Toronto v 6 Magnitogorsk
4 Columbus v 5 TBD


Simulation will run after the finals are over.

i had a lot of driving time this weekend and was thinking about this probably more than i should have.

i found it strange that we were criticized for steve ott being a 4th line center in a league of this caliber when a team rostered kyle turris as a second line center?

I was criticized almost universally for having Kyle Turris as a second line center...in fact, I criticized myself. It was the weakest point of my team. Though, I believe Turris got a short straw from the voters, I can't say I blamed them...who would have watched the Sens last season...? Should be able to top 60 points though this year, which is nothing to sneeze at...

Kyle Turris responds with hat tricks in consecutive games, leading Montreal to a sweep.

That's because Kyle Turris brings the funk as well as the noise...hopefully people notice how far he's come now that there's no Jason Spezza to overshadow him...he's gonna handle it all on his own, likely with his partner in crime last season, Clarke MacArthur and maybe the magnanimous help from his superfriend Bobby Ryan...

That said, ideally, he's a #2 center in the big show...
