That’s really great! I’m glad you did it instead of me for the contract! Keep up the good work!

Thanx for the comments and suggestions it is extremely appreciated! I have VERY GOOD ideas/projects for my next release (hopefully next year, but I’ll see what happens with the lock-out) and I hope to be able to make them all work because you guessed it, IT REALLY IS time consuming… just talk to my girlfriend who was going crazy at times

As for the contract things I mainly used the McKeen’s hockey yearbook and double-checked everything with ESPN.com… I had to check players one-by-one.

Really good job! I like the fact that you have 4 projection sources and average them out. However, I'm going to have another average column without the Forcaster to see what the results are. I'd like to know what the hell they are smoking... Some of their forcasts seem pretty unrealistic... (example, Havlat, LeCavalier, Richards to name a few).

For consideration: Maybe include the age of the player. I sometimes take that into consideration when choosing a player. Another nice thing would be trends. I did a spreadsheet this year on all players with their stats from the previous 3 years to see the point trends. I'm not good in stats by any means, but it does paint a nice picture. For example, I always liked Recchi, but for the last 3 years he as progressively gotten worse.

I'd love to know where you got the contract status. That is a must for hockey poolers!

Great job!
