Hockey Pool and Want List

This is a last call for anyone wanting to get into my little hockey pool. The entry fee is a card or a pack with "value" of 10 bucks. I plan on running it on yahoo and I want to get it sorted out by the end of this week. Right now we have 7 people interested and I am hoping for a few more so just comment below that you want in. Here are the ones I have so far, and if you changed your mind let me know that too!

1. Dave H
2. Sal
3. Paul
4. Nick
5. Michael
6. Shane
7. Mark M.
8. Kazi
9. 1967ers
10. Jake
11. Chris S.

Anyone is welcomed to join!


I am also working on my want list and for trade list. I am about 35 cards short on my 83-84 OPC set and I am also looking for a Brodeur auto and a few other odds and ends. I will keep updating it over the next couple weeks as well and taking a few off the list that I acquired recently through some trades etc!








I am also assembling a PC of every swatch from every NHL team that is currently in the NHL or ever existed. I will also get that list up soon too.

Hockey Pool Anyone?

With the hockey season around the corner I am beginning to think fantasy. One idea that has run through my head is to run a hockey pool with my fellow bloggers and readers where the concept would be a $10 BV entry fee. Each person would put up a card (or a pack) with a $10 value and the winner of the pool would get a card/pack from each of the losing players.

I am not sure if this will get off the ground or not and you wouldn't need to pay up until the end. You can even keep the card a secret until the end too if you like. I am just trying to see if there is enough interest out there to participate. I am pretty open to different pool ideas, my initial thought was a draft (through sportsline or yahoo or whatever) and go from there. Let me know if you are interested and if you have an idea on how it should be run, please share. We could even do a keeper league if there are some die-hards out there too.

I would like a total of 10 contestants but of course if there is interest for more that is cool too. So if you are interested or in no matter what, let me know!
