    I?m usually a ?start your studs? kinda guy but it?s pretty tempting to leave Talbot against St Louis on the bench and start Lindgren against the Coyotes. Ws, GAA and SVs.

    I?m starting Hellebuyck in my other starter spot as he?s against the Flyers.
    Without me, it's only "aweso".

    I am OK starting Lindgren here. Pretty much all green lights for anyone playing the Coyotes these days.

    Yeah, the only really dangerous forward the ‘Yotes have (Keller) is pointless in his last four.

    Compare that with the high-scoring Blues, and yeah... I can see a strong case for Lindgren here.

    I think you’re pretty well guaranteed the win, and probably some nice SV% and GAA too.

    It's the NHL and just as soon as you think you have a sure thing, something goes wrong.

    On paper this looks like the right move and I'd probably do the same thing but I do think the Oilers play a strong game tonight against the Blues and sometimes teams play soft against teams they SHOULD beat.

    My point; anything is possible in the NHL on any given night. Good luck no matter who you go with.

    I had a similar decision in one of my leagues - start Allen or Lindgren. I chose Lindgren just because he is playing ARI. Fingers crossed it was the right decision!

    Have to admit I?m glad Talbot got shelled too as the decision to start Lindgren doesn?t seem too bad now. Also have Grubauer in that league so I was pretty much screwed no matter who I went with haha.

    Thanks for all the input guys!
