gmen81 Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Anyone here play dfs? I was thinking if people were interested we could start a league on DK where we could do something like $5 buy in every Saturday or whichever works for best. Especially since Ari isn't doing a money pool this year I look forward to everyone's responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In each contest, participants will create a lineup by selecting players listed in the Player Pool. Each player listed has an assigned salary and a valid lineup must not exceed the salary cap of $50,000. Contest results will be determined by the total points accumulated by each individual lineup entry (scoring rules summarized below). The Player Pool will consist of all NHL players expected to be on the active roster for any team scheduled to play in the contest Draft Group. Occasionally a player may be missing from the Player Pool due to trades or other unforeseen circumstances. In most circumstances, once the Player Pool is established for a Draft Group, including positions and salaries, the Player Pool will not be adjusted. In the rare event that there is a mistake within the Player Pool that would significantly impact game quality, DraftKings reserves the right to correct the mistake after contests for that Draft Group have become available. This may result in valid lineups becoming invalid. This would most likely occur shortly after the Player Pool becomes available, far in advance of the contest start time, and participants who have entered contests for the Draft Group prior to the adjustment will be notified via email. A “Draft Group” is a set of games used for contests; each contest is tied to one Draft Group. Contests tied to the same Draft Group can be created at different times. Therefore, game policies are based on the timing of a Draft Group being made available, not each individual contest. Rosters will consist of 9 players and must include skaters (non-goalies) from at least 3 different NHL teams. The 9 roster positions are: W, W, W, C, C, D, D, UTIL, G W spots can be filled with a RW or LW The UTIL spot can be filled with any skater (LW, RW, C, or D), but not a Goalie SCORING RULES Players will accumulate points as follows: Goal = +3 PTS Assist = +2 PTS Shot on Goal = +0.5 PTS Blocked Shot = +0.5 PTS Short Handed Point Bonus (Goal/Assist) = +1 PTS Shootout Goal = +0.2 PTS Hat Trick Bonus = +1.5 PTS Goalies only will accumulate points as follows: Win = +3 PTS Save = +0.2 PTS Goal Against = -1 PTS Shutout Bonus = +2 PTS Goalie Scoring Notes: Goalies WILL receive points for all stats they accrue, including goals and assists. The Goalie Shutout Bonus is credited to goalies if they complete the entire game with 0 goals allowed in regulation + overtime. Shootout goals will not prevent a shutout. Goalie must complete the entire game to get credit for a shutout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea it's just not for me. I did one similar before on Yahoo and didn't find it fun. However if you're willing to do a pool similar to Ari's from last year, I'd certainly join. I don't care if the draft cuts into the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
