Pool Picks

Questions and answers

How a Pool Picks survivor pool works, from the first pick to the last entry standing. Open the group you need.

What is a survivor pool?

Everyone in the pool holds one or more entries. Each pool week, every entry picks one NHL team. Get the pick right and the entry carries on to next week; get it wrong and that entry is out. The last entry standing wins the pool.

What is the difference between a winner pool and a loser pool?

In a winner pool the team you pick has to win. In a loser pool it has to lose. A pool is set up as one or the other before it starts and stays that way all season.

How many picks do I make each week?

One pick per entry, per pool week. Two entries means two picks that week.

When does my pool play?

Your commissioner chooses the pool's game day, Monday through Sunday, when the pool is created. Every week is played on that day.

How does the pool end?

The last entry standing wins it.
