That's right. It's costing me my virginity, but Matt is letting me run another hockey pool this year. I'm thinking of making it better than last year; considering allowing trades and making it more interactive some how. Details are still in the works, but the playoffs are fast approaching so everyone start thinking about possible teams. Since I'm poor as, it will be for bragging rights, but I'm hopeful that this years pool will be bigger and better than last year in every possible way.

I put quite a bit of time thinking about how many players. Considering that most will be benched, I don't think 52 players is really that many. I really think that 'coaching' five lines like that will be a lot of fun.

its just that then, everyone will have the same players... with that many to choose from, there are only so many people will pick, and they will all be the same. But whatever, I'm in no matter the format.

you could be right, but I think the line combos will mess everything up. I'm pretty excited about this pool and I really thing it'll work, so I'm gonna stick with it and hope for the best. If it sucks, we'll just have to learn from that for next year :)

pretty much as soon as I get a chance to talk to Matt to get him to let me set it up. It's gonna be exactly what I said here so no worries on that. Thing is, I can't really make it official till all 18 playoff positions have been secured.
