   We got the final results for the #Hockey polls I put up a few days ago...and it's tight. Looks like there's no real split opinion on how either of the series go.

   For what it's worth, I didn't get to vote in my own poll (thanks Mastodon?) but I'd give given the edge to both the Stars and the Panthers.

   I think Edmonton's goaltending is their Achilles heel, and I think the Panthers are just too deep to be worried by the Rangers.

   Still, I've been wrong before.

     @danielholt I missed your poll just like I've missed so much of these playoffs this year. I think the hashtags only work so well which is why I also follow and tag @hockey. that seems to be a lot better approach especially coming from a small server.

     The worrying part of these polls is that based on the numbers, there's less than 12 people regularly in the #Hockey #HNOM #NHLPlayoffs hashtags.

     I know we're a relatively niche sport, but come on that can't be right??

     @danielholt its a series of bots that reposts content they are tagged in. Just follow the bit and you will see posts from other users that it boosts. There are several different sports on that server that each have their own bot. I've noticed that folks seemed to be more active in the regular season. Or at least I was more active following it.

     @mcneely @hockey

     I'll remember that going forward. How does the [at]Hockey thing work?

     @danielholt then there's @emarktaylor who isn't actually a bot but reposts like one in order to single-handed boost all sorts talk in the fediverse 😉
