Peanuts are thrown at those traitorous enough to pick Oilers and Canucks.
Traditionally we do this at Pete's Peanut Pub in SW Calgary. We are checking interest before posting final time and location.
This annual pool has existed in one form another since our high school days in the early 1980s.
You can do this.

Listen... I'm American. I have proved time and time again that I know nothing about hockey. I don't know if I'll join in the pool but I wouldn't mind showing up and forcing Locke to finally make good by buying me that Schooner. Also I would never pass the up going to Petes and the chance to possibly see topless estonian honey wrestling on TV.

No knowledge required. Most people select from lists in draft guides.
We will tell you if a player is injured or out of the NHL (probably).
There is no management required after your picks are made.

I think Joni Pitkanen will be a great late round point producer.
