It's not being ignored. It's being deferred until the matchups are known.
In the meantime, I'll be checking otu the trends as the season progresses.
So yes, it makes a lot of sense. You are more than welcome to take the info I share and see how thep layoff match-ups would go. Because I am offering all of that up front, its very easy for anyone to do. Sounds like I'm doing this right.

I'm going to pick winners in each playoff series, and beat soccer's super system.

So we're taking this system and selling it online to sports bettors?
What's my cut ?

It doesn't make sense just because you say it does. Either you don't understand what you are even trying to do (based on your initial explanation in this very thread) or you just are throwing shit against the wall and hoping it sticks. There is as much value in the week to week machinations of this (or any statistical analysis) as there is in some random person's power rankings. A team gaining in the rankings during the week mean nothing since the fixed value of the ratings means nothing to determining who will likely win an actual playoff matchup, since those are not decided by your rankings. Same with the opposite. In fact, a team could plummet down the rankings up to the playoffs and end up in, say, 27th place, win the Cup & it wouldn't even mean your rankings are wrong, if those 4 series victories were the only 4 that your rankings got wrong.
And B, I wouldn't get too excited about using these for gambling. According to Soccer, this system only is 2% more accurate over the last ten years than just looking at teams' fenwick rankings. Since there are only 15 playoff series a year, that isn't much of an advantage. You're better off continuing to take advantage of fish at the AC poker tables.

LMFAO
Exactly.
You cant claim fof 3/4 of the season that the 'current rankings' are immaterial, as its only a playoff indicator, and then make a big deal about how teams are better starting to mirror the regular season standings.

Not going to highlight the Hawks anymore. They've been finished for a while, but there's just really no more point anymore.
So to listen to user feedback, here is where the various playoff teams fit in on all of this. I've sorted it as if it's first round matchups, but I'll include some buble teams as well. In parenthese are the ranks based on this topic's equation
Tampa (9) vs NJ (22) Boston (1) vs Toronto (17) Washington (25) vs Philly (18) Pittsburgh (2) vs Columbus (4)
Nashville (8) vs St. Louis (5) Winnipeg (3) vs Minnesota (19) Vegas (12) vs Colorado (24) San Jose (6) vs Anaheim (20)
Full ranking: 1 Boston 2 Pittsburgh 3 Winnipeg 4 Columbus 5 St. Louis 6 San Jose 7 Calgary 8 Nashville 9 Tampa Bay 10 Carolina 11 Dallas 12 Vegas 13 Chicago 14 Los Angeles 15 Edmonton 16 Florida 17 Toronto 18 Philadelphia 19 Minnesota 20 Anaheim 21 Montreal 22 New Jersey 23 Detroit 24 Colorado 25 Washington 26 Ottawa 27 Buffalo 28 Vancouver 29 Arizona 30 NY Rangers 31 NY Islanders
