2015/16 HNIC PGP ENDS
First of its kind.
This 2015-16 NHL Season
is the debut of the
HNIC PGP
2013-2015 the pool’s concept was formulated and this pool was tested & finalized.
I’m more than certain you will enjoy this pool and enjoy the NHL Regular Season much more.
In Brief
NHL Regular Season Pool
You guess the winning teams … not players or goals or assists or whatever… just winning teams.
- 12 Saturdays to choose from, just 10 game cards to complete throughout the season.
- Check-mark the teams you think will win & hand it in before each of the Saturdays’ deadlines.
- Guess the most correct wins and win the pool.
- You pay 1 entry fee for the entire season’s 10 game cards.
- Partake as an individual or as a group.
POOLIE ‘NO 2 3 ON 3’ WIN 1ST Place
POOLIE ‘PUCK ROCK’ WIN 2ND Place
Q: Where is the entryform?
A: To use an online entry click on the link “Online Games Cards (& cal)”. To download an editable PDF click on the link “Calendar & Games Cards”… or click on “Get Started – Entry Form”.
Q: How do I enter?
A: You enter by completing the first (mandatory) PGP Game Card (numbered 2 of 12). Card number 1 of 12 is a Flex Card meaning your option to complete it or not. You only complete 2 of the 4 Flex Cards over the season.
Q: Why Flex Cards?
A: It’s important Poolies don’t miss a PGP Saturday so the timing of the 4 Flex Saturdays I hope helps Poolies who maybe be out of town or too busy to commit 2 Saturdays a month.
Q: Why not include every Saturday of the NHL season?
A: 26 Saturdays are too many to ensure the proper management and reporting that’s required for this type of pool. Also the higher number of Saturdays could possibly increase the number of missed Saturdays. Its very important Poolies do not miss a Saturday.
Q: How many Poolies are there?
A: The minimum number of Poolies is 10. I hope to have about 15 Poolies but I won’t know until closer to the Pool deadline.
Q: Why are there only 5 Saturdays that immediately pay out cash prizes?
A: The concept is to help keep Poolies interested in the pool over the long season and to reward a few Poolies who have a “good” Saturday of picks but low numbers of wins come end of pool.
Q: The 5 cash prizes seem a bit cheap?
A: Because the pool is about who has the most wins over the season, a worthwhile larger prize for that/those Poolies was preferred. However the small cash prizes thru-out help give back to some Poolies money towards their entry fee.
Q: Is the Deadline Oct 31 or Nov 14?
A: Deadline is Nov 14th at 10:00am. Saturday Nov 14th is the first mandatory Saturday for Poolies to make their picks (winning teams). Oct 31st is the first Saturday Poolies have the option of making their picks.
Q: If Oct 31 is optional & a Poolie submits a Game Card will they not get more Saturday picks that everyone else?
A: No. All Poolies have the same qty 4 flex (optional) Saturdays & can only choose 2 of them. That Poolie can only choose 1 Saturday more from the remaining 3 whereas others can choose 2 of the 3. At the end of season every Poolie will have the same number of games to predict which is 118.
Q: What if I forget or miss a Saturday?
A: That can’t be controlled therefore it would be bad luck for you but the odds are too low for that to happen, with all the reminders online. You can ask the thenhljl to email you reminders. Every Poolie can ask for that. You must ask because the thenhljl does not send unsolicited emails to Poolies. Go Here.
Q: I’ve submitted my picks & don’t see my entry online nor do I see the Saturday results?
A: All info is inputted manually. No DB transfers or direct uploads or auto populating of data is in place. So regardless if your entry is updated (inputted) immediately or days or even weeks later; it gets updated and each one has a date/time-stamp for validation. I try to have things current as much as possible but when I fall short of “being on the puck/ball”, be assured that at anytime everyone is welcome to ask for copies of any single entry &/or every entry.
Q: I’m worries I’ll forget to enter the right Saturdays’ game picks?
A: If you want reminders of the rules.. of the types of Saturdays… of the Saturdays themselves?… Send a request to hnicpgp.jlpool@thenhljl.com and hnicpgp.jlpool@thenhljl.com will send you this info a day or two or more prior to each Saturday. You can even say how many hours or days or weeks prior you want to receive this info. Simply… just ask. Note that hnicpgp.jlpool@thenhljl.com will not contact you unless you ask hnicpgp.jlpool@thenhljl.com to contact you.
