I would stick with Ward and Varlamov.
Ward and Varly got me stinkers last night. Didn't help that my opponent had Bryzgalov and Smith who both got shutouts last night. Anyone in waivers worth adding over them?
Holtby
Dubnyk
Backstrom
Lindback
Theodore
Pavelec
Nabokov
Scrivens
Thanks

Ward is doing awful and at this point I would consider going elsewhere with him. Varlamov is a must drop, that guy couldn't put up consistant numbers to save his life.
Backstrom has way higher potential than Varlamov. I would definatly make that move.
As for Ward, hold on to him a little longer, he may turn it around, and his back ups arn't good enough to steal much time from him.
If you can, maybe pick up a 3rd tender in Scrivens until Reimer is settled back into his role. I see Scrivens playing a lot if he stays consistant. Also on a young team, Dubnyk is definatly work a look. His numbers are strong, this is his first real kick at the cat, so I would definately pick up Scrivens until Reimer returns, then roll Dubnyk.

Question: How does a 35 year old goalie that is constantly injured have more potential than a 24 year goalie? Backstrom missed his last start do to an illness so there is no faith that he will even play game to game. Give me Varly any day! Right now Colorado has a lot of important bodies missing so Varly's numbers will hurt a bit but when Lando comes back and the O'Reily thing sorted out you will see Varly's numbers get better.

Is this a keeper league?
If not then Lindback has no value this year, his GAA and Sv% is too high. Yes he's getting wins but that is only one category.
I DO think Backstrom has better potential than Varlamov any day and the reason being is because Varlamov hasn't really proven himself fit to be a starting goaltender. The only reason he is still a starter in Colorado is becaise Giguere is about ready to retire.
Dubnyk is a very viable option right now, he's young, he's got a young strong team in front of him.
As for right now I would drop Varly and roll Dubnyk. Opposed to my previous post of rolling Backstrom, Dubnyk will get you the most starts and decent numbers.
