Should I play Ward tonight?

[Chicleteur]

I know we\'ve already talked about this earlier and you\'ve helped me identify 3 favorable matchups for Ward (and this wasn\'t one), but the way they have played recently and the fact that Ward is 4-0 1.75 GAA vs the Caps this year makes me wonder.

On the other hand, they haven\'t played since March 20th and the Caps have the firepower to go out big on any given night.

What do you think?
Thanks!

Wsh scares me and I would not play aginst them.
But I have only been 50-50 or so with your picks this week.
In my defense malone and most of the other picks were unanimous.

I say sit Ward as he might get the win but he will give up alot of goals to AO who is on a tear. Actually Backstrom has been scoring of late aswell. Don\'t see that continuing.... look for AO to get 2G 1A and Backstrom 2A

Thanks for bringing me back to earth Crazynuck!! Sure the Caps are scary and that\'s why I already have ruled out this matchup up once... The more I think of it, the more I think it was just a bad idea going thru my brain.

hahaha it happens to the best of us.

Yep. It all depends on which Caps team shows up. They looked horrible in Chicago but good in Nashville.

Probably best to sit him and not worry about AO extending his scoring lead on your goalie.

That\'s true... They only miss consistency to be a good contender.

Well he didn\'t get lit up but took the SO loss.
