Training Camps are starting this weekend for hockey players and hockey
poolsters alike.

I am going to run a hockey pool for anyone that is interested.

Here is how to select your team:

You will need -     15  Forwards
                              8  Defencemen
                              3  Goalies

Here's the catch, you may only select one player from each of the NHL
teams; ie you won't be able to take both Mario Lemieux and Jaromir
Jagr.

As in most pools injuries are something everyone dreads, so now you
must select from your choices your starting 12 forwards, six
defencemen and two goalies. Then rank your remaining 3 forwards, two
defenceman and 1 goalie ( these are your reserves ).

Your reserves come into play if any of your starters are injured or
you wany to pull them. All you have to do is notify me by e-mail and I
will change whoever you wish with wichever reserve you want me two as
long as they are of the same position.

I am going to use the 1996-97 Hockey News Yearbook for Team listings,
if a player gets traded later in the year it will not effect anyone.

Scoring is as follows:        Forwards                                
                                         1 pt per goal
                                         1 pt per assist
                                          +1 per powerplay goal
                                          +2 per shorthanded goal

                                          Defencemen
                                           2 pt per goal
                                           1 pt per assist
                                            +1 per poerplay goal
                                            +3 per shorthanded goal

                                            Goalies
                                             2 pt per win
                                              1 pt per tie
                                              5 pt per shutout
                                              3 pt per goal or assist

I will use the Hockey News to confirm all stats.

I will be making up a team for this pool also but it will not be
eligable for any prizes. i will send a rookie card of some sort though
to anyone's team that beats mine.

To register just pick your team and give it a name if you so desire
and e-mail to rregular@peinet.pe.ca and I will confirm receipt. All
teams must be received by no later than 6:00 pm Friday, October 4
1996. Changes can be made to any teams received until that time also.

Cost will be $ 10.00 per team entered and must be postmarked no later
than Monday 07 October 1996. Registration fees can be mailed to:

     Ray Regular
     RR # 1 Kensington
     PEI, Canada C0B 1MO

Prizes will be announced when all fees are received and the following
questions are voted on ( send answers with your team ).

1. Do you want a split season? ie: 1 winner at the All-Star break and
at the end of the season.  Yes or No.

2. Do you wish one winner, 1st and 2nd or top three?

I have a signed '90-91 Upper Deck Wendell Young card that I will award
to the team that ends up in the basement.

Goog Luck to everyone.

I will unveil my team to all participants on 05 October, bet you can't
beat it.

Any questions or comments just send an e-mail.

Thanks
Ray
