The Stanley Cup playoffs for the 2023-24 season officially start on Saturday at 5:00 pm EDT when the Islanders face the Hurricanes. Our beloved Columbus Blue Jackets are nowhere close to being involved, but that has never stopped us from having our annual bracket challenge. Longtime member FFMorgan is our defending champion. Can you claim that throne, and the prize of some sick Cannon or CBJ merch?
Here’s what you need to know:
- Please use the same user name to sign up as you do for this site, so we can match entries to accounts. If I can’t recognize the name on the entry, I won’t know how to reach out to the winner.
- You must sign up before the start of the first Game 2 on Monday, April 22. You can also edit your bracket before then.
- Full rules and instructions can be found here.
- The winner will receive a $25 value in either merch featuring The Cannon logo, or a gift card to the Blue Line Store (or the online equivalent).
- The link to join our league is here. The password to join is F4NT1LL1
You can use this thread for discussion of playoff predictions, and for the early first round games. Stay tuned later today for a post giving you some guidance for which bandwagon to join.
