so...should I start Rask?
jk jk
The season has yet to even start and the goalie forum is littered with endless "Should I start Rask who's facing the Rangers or Pavelec against a shitty team?" threads.
In an effort to pre-emptively curtail the endless number of these type of posts that will inevitably litter the forum every night, I just thought I'd say:
START YOUR STUDS
START YOUR STUDS
START YOUR STUDS
It is hard to predict who will win game by game, but what you CAN predict with reasonable accuracy is that over the course of a full season your studs will come out ahead.
You drafted them high for a reason - play the long-term averages and you won't lose!
so...should I start Rask?

Starting Lundy is a no-brainer, but I'm torn between starting Hiller (@Van) or Varlamov (@MIN) tonight...any thoughts?
Rinne or Holtby for today?

I'd like to start my studs. I just can't make my mind up on who they are
Start two of Halak, Holtby and Bryzgalov tonight. Help me out here, guys!
GO WINGS!
Im guessing I might have been the hair that broke the camels back on this one... I have Pavelic/Backstrom/RASK/BRYZ
And I was almost convinced of starting backstrom and Pavelic...
However, this thread definitely re affirmed my belief in averages.
Studs shall be started and forever they shall.
Still not sure who is better between backstrom and Pavelic... though I'd follow dobbers guide here and go Pavs
