NHL Pool Question
 

Heya,

Im going to be joining a hockey pool this year based off a draft system.

8 participants choose 28 players , only one player allowed per team.. No trades throughout the season. 1 point = 1 pool point.


Now, Im comfortable with my knowledge of the top end (the best players).. However, im probabily going to get slaughtered with my ignorance of the up and commers and 2nd line standouts.

Any magazines exists or links to websites with insight into the "B-level" players and their potential future performance?

Any advice at all from sports betting gurus here?

if it's just points and you don't have to draft certain positions, and no goalies, than this list is just what you need. it's pretty good.

there's some guys ranked a little higher there than they should be, and depending on the knowledge of all the guys in your pool you could probably get them in the later rounds rather than using up early round picks. some of those guys include

radulov
kopitar
kane
toews
backstrom
stastny

those are all rookies or sophomores that i'd imagine you could get later in the draft. even if someone takes one of those guys and you miss out, they aren't proven anyways so they are a bit of a gamble.

just make sure you get to draft first and take crosby and you should win the pool.
