Backgrounder - Sports Editors
4 October 2000
- Puckjunkie.com is the first business to be
launched by Puckjunkie Inc., a privately held company based in Calgary,
Alberta, Canada.
- Puckjunkie.com targets those thousands of
hockey fans that participate in office pools and particularly Fantasy
Hockey (more advanced hockey pools, sometimes called "roto-hockey")
who demand more than just stats and news. Puckjunkie.com offers unique
analysis, intelligence, and support for Fantasy Hockey GMs, giving them
a winning edge for the entire season.
- In addition, Puckjunkie.com will add
vertically integrated services and products of interest to real hockey
fanatics. However, it is NOT a gaming site and is appropriate for
Puckjunkies of all ages.
- First and foremost a content driven site,
Puckjunkie.com deploys technology in the support of content and customer
needs, not technology for its own sake.
- The directors and officers running
Puckjunkie Inc. bring a wealth of business, consulting, media, and legal
experience to the business, and all are long-time Fantasy Hockey GMs and
Puckjunkies.
- Puckjunkie.com relies on experienced
Fantasy Hockey GMs from across North America for its articles, analysis,
and assessments. It employs editorial guidelines and oversight to make
sure content is of high quality and always integrates a Fantasy Hockey
perspective.
- Targeting the growing participation of
women in Fantasy Hockey, Puckjunkie.com offers an irreverent perspective
via its regular "Chicks in the Pool" column.
