They've dropped the puck!!
It's the first day of the NHL's 2007-2008 Regular Season, as the mighty Stanley Cup champion Anaheim Ducks take on the Los Angeles Kings in London, England, and it's not to late to start a fantasy hockey pool. My hockey pool draft happens tonight, and I've been in pools where the picks weren't made until a week into the season, so there's still time.

For many Canadians, the start of the hockey season means that it's hockey pool time.
For many Americans, it's fantasy hockey time. Why the difference? I'm not sure.

The Free Online Hockey Pools link has a list of free fantasy leagues to try out your hockey predictions with total strangers. There are also templates for free bracket- or category-style fantasy hockey pools, which are the easiest type of leagues to host because you don't need everyone together in the same room.

The Hockey Pool Links and Resources has a list of the best places on the net to keep track of hockey statistics, injuries, rumors, news, player salaries, the season schedule and scores.
There are also team-by-team previews for the 2007-2008 NHL season. He shoots, he SCORES!!!

And the Oscar nominees are...

Acadamy Award Nominations - 2007

The nominees for the Academy Awards were announced this morning.

The best movie site, IMDB.com, has the complete list of nominees, with everything as clickable links. No speculation. No picks, predictions or oversights from the pundits; IMDB's simple, elegant, functional design lets you dive as deeply into each nominee’s resume as you wish to go.

And because this is the Tuesday music post, I want to mention that the nominees for Best Song and Best Score are included in the list of nominees.
