    the players are ranked for you. if you are not sure of who to draft Yahoo will auto draft for you. or you can just take who ever is top on the list. as far as stats yahoo does all that for you. all you have to do is pick up an ocassional new player when some one gets hurt. and pick who you want active. you get two or three goalies and thriteen players. four will be on the bench. Yahoo keeps all the scores for you

    its up to you. 10 or 15 minutes will do but if your into stats and shifting players every day it could be a half hour a night. I don't get real involved I just quickly check my teams for injuries and if every one is healthy i move on to something else. I have 7 football teams and 4 hockey teams I check them while i use my nebulizer at night, that last 20 minutes rarely does it take more then that to check all my teams

    I have seen some people just leave thier team alone for the year. I really don't recommend this as you really won't be very competitve in the league. If you just look at your team each day, make sure those players that have a game that day are selected, you will be fine even if you miss a day here or there. It is also a good idea to check your team for injuries. If a player is going to be out for the year, you can get rid of that player and get another one. It is all very easy to do. It only takes a couple of minutes.

    Finally, if you need help with anything, you can always post here and I would be happy to help, explain or anything else you need. I am sure that others here would do the same thing. So, don't be afraid sign up at:

    http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.co...one=joinleageu

    The league ID# is 47145 and Password is mikeshth

    BTW: We have 5/12 players right now.

    Cookie brings us to 6/12 players. We still have a couple days left. Because we have such a mix as some very knowledgeable and some that are new to Fantasy Hockey, I have decided that in order to make things fair for all that we will auto draft our teams on Wednesday 9/1/08. I hope this is agreeable to everyone.

    I do already check stats and stuff for the Hockey pool on sabresfan.com, but this seems a weeeee bit more complicated. So, I'm with you, we can learn together
    It will be fun!!

    BTW, what happens if we don't come up with 12 players? Can someone have more than 1 team?
