There's already a link for this somewhere, but it's a cool quiz. I could do all 30 now easily, but had a bit of trouble the first time I did it, months ago.

Hi January
When I go to a fast food restaurant, and my order comes to $6.28, I like to give the cashier $18.71. They look at me and say 'What's this?' and I say 'I'm all in'. They usually fold.

The East is super easy for me, as I know the divisions like the back of my hand. It's the West that catches me up a little.

yeah, I just instantly recited all of the west, then stared at the screen like an idiot for two or three minutes before cheating.
I was even watching the pens/flyers and didn't get the flyers until the very end

Missed Sabres and Blackhawks for shame.
I'm drunk though so I'm blaming it on that.

got all 30 with 2:32 to go
What helped was the playoffs. I knew who was playing who then had to just remember who missed the playoffs.
