    Default Start 2? Maybe?

    Have to start 2 in my H2H league...

    Assuming Hiller is starting... do I play

    Hiller v STL
    Varlamov v SJ
    Lundy vs WAS

    Here are my H2H current stats - today is the last day of the week.

    Wins - Me 5:6 Opponent (Opponent winning by 1)
    Losses - Me 1:2 Opponent (me winning by 1)

    I've won the GAA SV% and SO categories regardless of who I play or don't play... and my opponent is playing Price today.

    If Price wins, I need 2 wins to have any net benefit (and if I incur a loss will have a net loss)

    If Price loses, I just need a single win to have a net benefit, and win/loss is ok.

    My gut feeling is MTL is going to beat FLA... so unless I can conjure two wins I'm better off benching all my goalies. Thoughts?

    Lundy isn't starting, so certainly don't have him in there.

    Yeah, thats tough, never been in a league with losses counting. I agree, that Price should get the win, but he isn't a confirmed starter yet, so monitor that. With Lundy not playing, you have the "advantage" of waiting to see on Price and how his game is going before needing to make a decision about Hiller and Varlamov who both start 2 hours later. I'd probably wait it out assuming you have that option.

    Montreal's up 2-0 right now.

    Looks like I'm benching all my goalies - thanks for the advice and rep given.

    EDIT: Wait... Budaj is in net today. So... I need to play a goalie with > 50% win rate.

    Hiller or Varlamov?
