You couldn't have asked for a closer race in the battle for first place in the 2007-08 FANTASY HOCKEY JOURNAL REGULAR SEASON HOCKEY POOL.
Scott Schroeder of Plymouth, Michigan and Jim Marshall of Amherst, New York selected the same ten players. Since their lineups were identical they both finished with the same point totals.
The first tie-breaker was scoring champion. They both picked Sidney Crosby. It then went to the second tie-breaker since Crosby was not the scoring champ. The second tie-breaker was "how many points will the NHL scoring leader get?" Marshall said 132. Schroeder said 130. Alex Ovechkin won the scoring title with 112 points. With the closest guess Schroeder wins the pool!
Congratulations to Scott Schroeder as the winner and Jim Marshall as the very close runner-up! These two ran away from the rest of the pack in their extremely close duel.
FINAL STANDINGS Here are the ten players selected by Schroeder and Marshall that created their tie for first place: FANTASY HOCKEY JOURNAL offers a variety of hockey and sports contests.
