I'm hoping to get in a start as well ...... my best bet is that Emery goes Sunday in New York but who knows
Finals matchup may come down to saves unless Saturday causes a big swing one way or another.
Neither me or my opponent have a goalie for Sunday, and no one is confirmed yet. I'll probably be using my last add for this goalie, and it is a start one goalie league.
Goalies owned in my league include
Holtby/Grubauer
Mason/Neuvirth
Gibson/Andersen
Halak/Griess
Based on the fact that Andersen, Halak and Neuvirth are injured, I'm wondering if there are any likely starters left. Best odds would come down to:
Lyon/Emery
Khudobin
Berube (If he's healthy)/C. Gibson
Any insight would be appreciated

Yeah, it's definitely tougher in the deeper leagues when you don't have good backup options available.
Emery is a good bet, but I could also see Anaheim resting Gibson as Andersen is out too, so you would think Khudobin would get the last, meaningless game

I think the Flyers start Mason since they are still fighting for a spot.
My guess in order would be:
Khudobin
Gibson
Emery
If Boston or Detroit lose and Philly Wins, then Philly is in, and their Sunday game doesn't really matter. But you're right, they could still be fighting for it, and at that point would likely just go with Mason

Philly also doesn't have the tie breaker against either team, so they need a win and the Bos/Det loss to be in regulation

Neuvirth was the backup yesterday, with Emery and Lyon in the press box...so they aren't really good options from there

Boudreau has said as recent as 2 days ago that the plan is Andersen starts in Washington on Sunday so I'd be leaning towards him starting, not Gibson.
We get one of these - Don't waste it.
I'd go with one of the isles goalies. All depending what happens sat. Isles win and rangers lose, then one of those 2 will get the meaningless game Sunday.
