    Default Drop Rask for Lundqvist?

    Lundqvist is on the waiver wire. Drop Rask for him?

    No. Boston is trying to win games. NY isn't really as they are happy in their WC1 slot.

    I'm guessing it's not the team in your signature so would want a bit more context re league structure and the rest of your team?

    Well, it's done. Boston just seems like they're in a tail spin and the Rangers are on the road and perform well away from MSG. We'll see what happens.

    I agree here. Boston HAS to win, so they will play Rask every game. NYR can't really move up or down very easily, so they will rest the King for playoffs some games.

    It's the team in the signature (post Rask drop). Frankly a lot of the points guys are making are pretty good and I may already be regretting the drop. But I'm scrambling this week in H2H playoffs (down 6-4) and need to maintain my lead in goalie wins. Rask has been so bad lately and letting in 2 SH goals last week against TB sealed the deal for me. Acted mostly out of frustration, to be honest.

    Bruins gona play the hell out of rask I would think. Rangers would be wise to split starts between raanta and hank.

    Maybe they won't... Apparently didn't skate yesterday and McIntyre been recalled on an emergency basis - have to think they will do everything possible to start Rask tonight considering the opponent and their position but not a given

    In retrospect, this news isn't surprising. Rask looked awful in the TB game.
