FAQs about the NHL Teams wheel

Does the NHL wheel include all 32 teams?

Yes. The wheel comes with all 32 NHL teams from the Eastern and Western conferences. You can remove teams to narrow the list (for example, playoff teams only) or keep the full league for fantasy and pool use.

How do I use the NHL wheel for fantasy hockey?

Spin once and use that team as your pick for the week, or use the wheel to break a tie when two options look even. Commit to the first result instead of rerolling so the random pick actually decides. Many players remove each team after it's picked when they need several unique picks.

Can we use it to decide which game to watch on a busy night?

Yes. Add the teams that are playing that night, spin once, and watch that matchup. It pushes you to watch games you might skip and keeps the choice fair if you're with friends.

How do hockey pool tie-breakers work with the wheel?

When two or more people are tied in the pool, spin the wheel once. The team that comes up can decide the winner (for example, whoever had that team, or you agree the wheel decides). Everyone sees the spin, so no one questions the result.

Can I remove a team after it's picked for multiple picks?

Yes. After a team is selected, remove it from the wheel and spin again. That way you get a different team each time, which is useful for draft order, assigning teams in a pool, or picking several games to follow.
