Here is useful Hockey Pool Draft Tips
1- Do your homework and be prepared for the draft.
This is the most important tip that you must work on before the draft. Making a list with your top 100 players listed in order.
2- Know your team at all times, understanding its strengths and weaknesses. A good understanding of your teams strengths and needs after each of your picks in the hockey pool draft. Put together a table showing each statistical category used in your league. Then for each category, write down the number you will need to win that particular category. For example, if your league leading figure for total points last season was 200, then your goal is a minimum of 200 points. Start with 200 points and subtract from that amount every time you pick a player in the hockey draft. By doing this for each category you will understand the categories you are weak in and need to improve on and thus continue drafting accordingly.
3- Players who are holding out are a big risk. You must know the players that are holding out which can be done by reading hockey journals, magazines, hockey news, sports TV shows, etc.
4- Know which players are injured and which are injury prone.
Injuries are a part of the game so knowing how long they will be out is also very important. Keep your injury list up to date. If you are considering taking an injury prone player, do not project how many points the player will get if he stays healthy the entire year. Base your projected stats for injury prone players on the average amount of games they normally play per season. Thus if the player manages to play a full season, it is an added bonus for your hockey pool team.
5- Stay away from rookies as they are usually unpredictable. If your pool does requires you to take a rookie, let all the other GMs in your hockey pool pick the highly rated rookies early in the draft while you take all the dependable high-scoring veteran forwards, then with your last draft pick, take your rookie.
6- Do not waste draft picks as it is never too late to make a good draft pick. Many fantasy hockey pool GMs put a lot of time and research into their first five picks or so but you must realize to win a hockey pool league, you must keep your head clear and a safe sound strategy throughout the draft to the very end.
Have fun and we hope you enjoy your hockey pool experience.
