Down to the line, need help (REP)
 

So my current Goalie H2H matchup stats are as follows:

My team: 3W, 1L, 7 GA, 1.74 GAA, 129 SV, .949 SV%, 0 SHO
His team: 3W, 2L, 9 GA, 1.80 GAA, 120 SV, .930 SV%, 1 SHO

He has Rinne vs CHI tonight
I have Rask @ BUF tonight

Rask historically hasn't done too well against Buffalo. Is it smart tosit Rask tonight or take the risk and start him?

Thanks

I think this heavily depends on what your overall matchup is right now. If you're up by a lot in the player categories I would sit Rask because doing so will most likely make you lose only saves and maybe wins.

I think that NOT starting him should give you 4-3 win on goalie cats. You'll give up SVs and potentially Ws, but I think the others are a good bet to stay as is. Unless he gets a SO, I think you'll be okay.

Starting him could cost you more than it's worth.

I thought so too. Just wanted the confirmation thanks guys. Will rep in a bit

I would play him.

I'd sit him. Chi is capable of helping you out vs. Rinne, especially with the way Kane and Toews have been playing.

Looking at the cats above and how tight it is would you start Rask? He lost 6-0 against buffalo last game and historically he hasn't fared too well against Buffalo

Pretty much it comes down to will rask play better than rinne? If he does then I'm good. If not I may lose all cats

Edit. Posted before I saw you changed to sit him. I just don't think rask is worth the risk especially with his record against buffalo. If it was a weaker opponent i would consider it

Sit Rask. Vanek is just shy of averaging 2pts a game. As of late, Kane has been insane. I think Rinne has as equal a challenge, perhaps worse. Kane, Toews, Hossa. Chi's goaltending has been good, too.

I never sit goalies, no matter if I am winning cats or losing them. Maybe its just the way I am but I draft these guys expecting them to get me points. Not sure how that happens if they are on my bench.

Its almost the wussy way out to me. Be a man, start your goalies.

No worries khudobin is starting instead. Now the question is do I put rask in in case khudobin gets pulled?
