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.
