Re: ECAC Pick 'em, Week 15

Congrats Ralph!

Rainman, thanks for running this. It definitely adds an extra level of fun to the ECAC season.

All that said...... I am very happy with my share of 4th place

Re: ECAC Pick 'em, Week 15

I really choked this thing away in the last week. Congrats, Ralph!

[Ralph Baer]

Re: ECAC Pick 'em, Week 15

I am shocked.

I am going to have to change from 6 goals per game next year.


And thanks, Rainman.

To give you an idea, I go with 5 gpg and I wound up 40+ points closer. Of course, I also missed the first 3 weeks of the schedule as usual...

I should just calculate what the average per game is. If I assume that I was always over the correct answer (which probably isn't correct), then 137/(22*12/2) is indeed about 1 off.

Re: ECAC Pick 'em, Week 15

I used to go with 5 goals per game, but ended up way low. This year I went with 5.5, then added/subtracted 1 or 2. My goals number was much better, but my picking games was not

[Ralph Baer]

Re: ECAC Pick 'em, Week 15

I just calculated it including only league games. I got 5.08333... That would mean 61 goals when everyone is playing. I checked my calculation using the goals against which should obviously give the same answer.

Now I will have to look for this post next year. Maybe I should also go back a few years and fit a curve to the trend. (Probably not worth the trouble.)

Re: ECAC Pick 'em, Week 15

This was an emotional, gut-wrenching contest this year when you pick against your own team every week! At least the Raiders ended the regular season with some magical Starr power when they needed it most.
