well i sure hope im in since im creating the pool
k the pools been made, theres gonna be 14 max teams, obviously one per poster, so far there were i think 6 us
anyways this is a Yahoo Sports Fantasy pool, its free and I think worrying about collecting money and sending it around and whatnot would get to complicated so this pool is for fun!
For the guys joining you will need to create some stuff, a Yahoo email address, sucks i know but whatever.
Im attaching a direct link to the pool, click this link and then follow the directions on registering, team name etc, its all pretty straight forward.
Now this is important. POINTS, in the past with other pools we've had G's, A's, +/-, Powerplay points, shorthanded points, goalie wins and shutouts
This is a rough draft of how it will work and it can change this if no ones down for it
Goals - 1 point
Assists - 1 point
+/- : .5 points (hopefully you all know how this works)
powerplay points: .5
shorthanded points - 2
goalie wins - 2
goalie shutouts - 2
So, for anyone confused, say your player gets a regular, even strength goal, you get the goal (1) and the (.5) for the plus, same thing goes for Powerplay points, if your player gets a point they get (1) + (.5) for a powerplay point
the one thing i realize now in looking at the pool is that shorthanded points are worth too much this would mean that you get 3 points if your player gets a short handed goal or assist, im gonna change that
I am OPEN to suggestions about points scoring, its easy to change we can vote on it if theres any real problems, however, ive used this in the past and its worked really well
this is the link to the pool
