The only nights that work for me are Saturday and Tuesday.

Maybe we could have a poll where users can select multiple options. Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday - and whichever night has the most votes we can hold it that night.

I'm new so I'm just wondering. Do you guys bring laptops/smart phones to this thing? How exactly does this work? Thanks.

NERD!

Most of us bring a list of some sort, but it's usually printed (or one of the magazines).

I brought my laptop last year but it's better to print out a couple pages and bring them along. Tough to have a laptop going and beer and a burger or wings going at the same time. Haha.

I actually wear a wire so that I'm connected to a team of insiders (including Darren Dreger) who are waiting outside of the pub in a van feeding me expert information regarding my next pick. This has been crucial to my success in the regular season pool....which I have never won. (I did win the playoff pool once though.....)

Also.....Aeneas brings a big board with all the players names on it. When they get taken we cross them off with a sharpie. So theres that.

Windom did promise to up-rate our techno-quotient one time, but unfortunately that never materialized.

This is like herding cats. It seems Saturday is still the best night to do this. Bring a friend (but no Oiler or Canuck fans please).

You can send a list and participate by proxy if you can't be there. I recommend a ranked list of 250 players.

TSN's Top 300 Projected scorers (could be used by default if your list is too short):

To all posters of CP. This is a fun event where a bunch of us get together with our pool lists, drink a few wobbly pops and chuck peanuts at those who pick players from the Oilers and the Canucks. Most of all you don't have to be some hockey guru to a part of this. Pick up a hockey pool magazine and remove the top 200's player lists. Think of it as a way to meet some fellow posters from CP and share in some good hearted jabs at one another for their picks they make.
