Give your Gut a Chance on Draft Day
Most of us look for an edge in our hockey pools by actively seeking out experts’ advice. We read their articles and we ponder their recommended draft lists (side note: Yahoo has now released their ranking of the 100 top players for the 2009-10 season).
But no matter how many lists you agonize over and bring to your draft, it’s likely that at some point events will overtake your careful planning and you’ll be forced to make some decisions on your own. And often, it’s the stickiest of situations where all we are left with is what our gut is telling us.

NHL Training Camp Battles Part 1 of 2
Every September, rosters spots are up for grabs and rarely do we consider big an impact the result could be in fantasy leagues. What if Petri Kontiola, who had a very good camp in Chicago last year, beat out Kris Versteeg for that final spot? Would he have later received Calder consideration? Instead of making his fantasy owners look smart, he’s playing in the KHL now. All because of what may have amounted to a couple of exhibition games. There are a dozen examples like that each year and here are some situations to watch for.
