As much as streaks and games are great, I can't suggest sitting a star like Carter in place of a fringe guy like AA.
I have two stars faltering in my playoffs, leaving me with tough choices.
Carter or Athanasiou . Carter only has 1 point in his last 4 games. AA has 4 in his last 3. Tough to sit a star, but I'm in the semi finals right now. AA also has one more game this week.
Benn Vs Wheeler. Benn should always be a no-brainier, but with Benn only having 1 in his last 4 vs Wheeler with 4 in his last 3, it is a decision. I could also sit Zett, Atkinson or Pasternak to keep both in the lineup, but all those guys are totally Hanzal right now.

Whatever you do, play Wheeler. He's looked superb of late. Note also that as great a year as Atkinson is having, he's only posted 23 points in 36 games since the new year, which puts him well below the pace of most of the others you're considering. Plus, Columbus has less to play for as compared to teams like LA, Boston, and Winnipeg. Also, with Detroit out of the playoff picture, that might give them reason to play AA even more - to see if he's as real as he's looked at times this season.

Missed the second question. I would probably sit Zetts to get both Benn and Wheeler in.
