Ok, maybe one play a day? Minimum of 7 plays a week?

My goal was to have an actual betting contest instead of a mindless pick-the-winner-of-each-game kinda thing. But yeah, it would suck to have someone go 10-0 on the first day then sit on his lead for 2 months.

Rules amended - minimum of 7 plays per week.

Me contest pro.

I'll try this game, all I have to do is pick the puck line and totals, no canadian lines allowed right? Then post up the odds when I make the play, and all bets are for 1 unit a piece, right?

Not sure what you call a Canadian line. You can bet the ML (OT included), the puckline and/or the total. SBR Odds lists those and only those, so there's no confusion possible.

The rest of your post is correct, all plays are for 1 unit (risking 1 on positive odds and risking X to win 1 on minus odds) and you just gotta post current odds with your play.
 
I pretty much just play at Pinny now, but in the past at some other books, they will take the money line and the puck line and combine them for what they called a Canadian line. It has been about 5 years since I actual have placed a hockey bet, so they probably did away with that.
