The Tailgater Hockey Pool wrapped up it's opening round of picks with the Game 7 victories by Washington and Carolina. The victory by Carolina over Jersey would have to be considered an upset. However, the way it ended would be particularily upsetting to any Devils fan. It definitely threw a wrench into the plans of a few poolsters.
The only person to pick Carolina was Sherri Trapp who went 7/8 and leads after round 1. That prompted a full fledged, trash talkin, wipe our noses in it, email from Sherri to The Tailgater. I guess the gauntlet has been thrown down.
Now for Round 2, .......must....wipe......the.......Tim Horton's........drinkin........smile......off her face. LOL.....all in good fun Trapper.
So, here are the results after the First Round:
Sherri Trapp - 7/8
Mitchell Blair - 6/8
Denny Johnson - 5/8
Cory Wolfe - 5/8
Troy Souster - 5/8
Paul Pybus - 5/8
TJ Stancil - 3/8
Since the pool is cumulative over the entire playoffs, us "guys" still have a chance to catch the leader.
