I was 7-3-2, other team was 7-5 and I had beaten that team 2 of 3 times. The other playoff teams had better records; I think 8-4, 9-3 and 11-1 so I have no issue with them in the playoffs. What makes it even “better” was the guy who made the playoffs didn’t know he “beat me” since he didn’t think he had a chance so he never set his teams and was eliminated without knowing he was even in the playoffs.
I started that year 0-2-2 and went on a 6 game win streak, nothing I found in the stats or rules explained why I was not in the playoffs, I wrote ESPN 2 times before the playoffs started and 1 more time after, never a reply.
No matter what ties suck; the NHL and NFL need to change their overtime rules, no way in hell would I want season tickets to a game that ended in a tie, nothing is more dramatic then overtime except a double or triple overtime.
