The return of the HIL challenge

[hockeyislife]

Greetings everyone,

last season, i put together a little pool here for the masses at Dobber Hockey.

The basic idea was to pick one player a week during the course of the season. The trick was, you could only pick one player from a team ie: if you took Crosby, you couldnt later take Malkin.

This year, the hockeyislife Challenge returns for its second season.
Each person will draft one player per week of the regular season(26 weeks), and one player per round of the playoffs(4 rounds). you can use 18F, 9D and 3G. 1 point per G/A, 2 points for a Win. If you miss a week, no worries; all you have to do is eliminate a team to pick from.

Last years champion was WhatthePuck?; will you be the one to win this year's title?

if you have any questions, I'll answer them here!

So for 26 weeks of season action we pick ONE PLAYER ONLY and it has to be a player from a team that was not previously used? And we're supposed to reserve our last 4 weeks for playoff teams?

Interesting concept. I'd like to see more details and I'd like to take part.

[Boyder]

Do your Regular season teams, have to be different from your playoff team?

[Chicleteur]

HIL will definitely provide you with more details, but in the end you'll have pick one player per NHL team. So Eric you're right, you better reserve the team you think will do well in the playoff for the end!

HIL, I'm certainly in for another year! It was a good challenge last year!

you nailed the concept in less than 100 words; something tells me I'll be finishing behind you....

yeah, once you take a player from Atlanta you cant take another player from Atlanta(why you would want to boggles the mind...); also, you have to work within the paramaters of 18F, 9D and 3G

This was great last year (despite my mediocre finish)! I'll be back. Is Crazynuck going to give weekly updates on games played again? (That was always my reminder to make a pick!)
