Again I would first like to stress that the quality of the guide is best reflected on the "extra" information that it gives - the sleepers, what the sleepers can do and the odds of them doing it, the power-play units, the upsides, lesser information such as contract years, breakout candidates, and opinion columns from my writers. Predictions from one magazine to another are better for some, worse for others, from one year to the next and the differences shouldn't impact a win or a loss in your leagues. It's the extra stuff that win or lose for you.

Now with that out of the way, I just went over how I did last year.

Number of players predicted: 638 (removing any players who either finished with ZERO, or I had predicted to get ZERO).

Average points off with the predictions: 11.1 points (that's a new best for me - worst was 15.1 back in 2005/06...but that was after the NHL took a year off)

Percent within 5 points of prediction: 35.7% (that's a new best for me - worst was 27.0% back in 2003/04)

Percent within 10 points of prediction: 58.8% (that's a new best for me - worst was 48.1% back in 2006-07)

Percent within 20 points of prediction: 83.4% (best was 86.1% in 2005-06 - also had 85.4% in 2002/03)

Percent EXACT: 3.0% (best was 5.6% in 2007-08)

A pretty good year, especially after a ho-hum year prior.


This year's guide will again be released on August 1 and it will be updated throughout the offseason and well into camp as always.

Great to hear you set new personal bests. The numbers are hard to comprehend without knowing what other magazines were. Your numbers also get inflated because of injuries which make some of your predictions way off. Would be interested to replace "points" with "points per game" and see how close you were with your predictions.

Anyways great job Dobber, can't wait until August 1st.

I paid for the "UFP 10A" package on January 10th, Transaction ID: 3FK692060G604894V. I was able to access the downloads, but haven't been able to access any downloads since changing my email address. I can't imagine this would affect anything, but if you could let me know if there is a problem with the site or just if it's just my login id, I would appreciate it.
Thanks....

I agree, it would be interesting to look at ppg numbers extrapolated out for injured players. Anyway, good job as always Dobber

Thanks!

Dobber, look fwd to the guide becoming available!

Quick question, I guess there is nowhere on the site where you make available information regarding what package we purchased. In other words, there is nowhere that indicates what package I purchased so I just have to track it via my own records (e.g., Paypal).

Hey Dobbs, been following this site since the beginning of the season and based on the good inforamtion I've received from the forums alone, you have won me over. I just purchased the Ultimate Pack 2011A. That includes some stuff to help me during this years season as well right? I believe it's only the midseason guide right? The other guides are released at the end of this year for the following year correct? I bought the Ultimate one but it's telling me to hold my horses and my horses are running away!

As always a great guide...and that is what it is a guide and not a bible. It has helped guide to many a player that has helped me win 2 years ago and out in front this year in my money league. I can then re-invest those winnings into buying the guide so that I can win again and keep the cycle going...
