    Default Emery vs. Lehner?

    Any predictions on who gets the win here tonight? In a extremely tight battle with the guy I'm tied for 1st with. Since win's are worth 10 points, a correct FA pickup here could win me the league! Irving and Hedberg are also available for pickup, should I turn to one of them instead?

    No pressure.

    Looking at past history, it'll probably be Lehner over Emery in a peripheral-ugly high scoring affair (5-4, 70 total SOG).

    Hedberg is worth consideration. His last outting vs. Washington was solid, and his career history produces some confidence (12-6.) The worry is WAS is still an excellent home team and is on a 3 game winning streak in which they have shown some mettle.

    Haven't seen Irving play enough to say anything except I wouldn't start him against Anaheim.

    I'm also wondering about this matchup as I own both. I'm leaning towards Lehner with Ottawa at home. He's coming off a shutout in Boston.

    I'd go with Lehner - the sens have been playing really well as of late, whereas Chicago is in a funk. Toews is still out and even though they won last game, the team wasn't playing all that well.

    Ride the hot hand with Lehner. He's playing for starts here knowing full well the organization want's to see Bishop. I doubt he'll lose the game for ottawa. That will be determined by their offence.

    I'm gonna go with Emery. I think Chicago needs to come up with a big game today and they will. (so go with Lehner and you should be golden)

    but this time I think you'll buck the trend and you're instinct will be right. Chicago needs to step up.

    I agree it will be an ugly game for peripherals.
