Thanks, if I could do without them, I would, but the reality is that they pay very well specifically because they are more intrusive than other forms of advertising, and I can't just add the advertising as not a popunder and get the same amount.

It may be a small consolation, but I have refused to add "interstital" advertising, which is a form of ... Read Moread which blocks the page and requires the user to close it before proceeding. Those are way too intrusive.

Another small consolation is that I have reduced the number of popunders compared to 2-3 years ago. I used to show one ad on the first pageview, then 1 on pageview #5, then one on #10, and one on #20. I've dropped off those latter two, so people get a max of 2 per day, sometimes just 1 or even 0.

Sounds good... Again, I was by no means trying to say to get rid of your source of revenue.

Hi Tyrelle --

Your question is too broad, and can only be answered broadly. The statistics come from various sources officially published by the league, with holes augmented by research. If you'd like to be more specific -- for example, a league/season, then I can be more specific too.

They do compile the stats, but they publish it in a way which makes it too difficult for me to access it. No one over there returns my emails.

hey thanks. can't win em all.

How come versus doesn't have hockeydb as a in-between period commentator? Hockeydb could be like the banker on Deal or No Deal just quoting stats through a hotline.

I used to collect players, but like you said there are so many 1/1's and scarce cards that it's not worth collecting anymore. I switched over to collecting game worn jerseys, which sometimes cost less than cards with a half inch swatch from a jersey on it.

Do you have a set of printed official statistics from the team or the ACAC? If so, get me a copy of them. I don't know where to find historical ACAC data otherwise.

Working on it, will you take an electronic version? Where would I email it to?

If it's a scan, then yes, I'll take that electronically.

Before Pointstreak, the league used to publish their statistics on the FISG site. Now they are not appearing in either place. I noticed that the first four games don't have statistics updated, are they having problems?

While I'm at it, do you know if there are any good published sources for Italian hockey statistics pre-2001 or so? Edoardo sent me... Read More a couple of copies of the official statistics from 2001-02 and 2002-03, I think, and the FISG site had electronic copies for seasons after that. But the earlier stuff is harder to come by.

I rely on various league guides for awards, and the leagues haven't put their guides out yet. I am also a little behind on non-NHL leagues.

I was thinking about the NHL-awards, like the Hart and so on for the last few years.
But it' s not that important, of course, don't want to sound like a nag =)
Keep up the good work.

And I see now they're there except for the 08/09 season. So ignore me.
