    Default Start the Studs...or Luo?

    Price is the no-brainer start here.

    I have Holtby in as my other starter, but Luo has been playing so damn good. I didn't put him in against the Leafs and he was amazing. Now Holtby is on the back to back against a Leafs teams playing the same. However Luo is rested, but playing Chicago...dilemna. Any reason not to go with Holtby and play old man Luo?

    Why not? He's facing a team on the 2nd half of a b2b, and it's freakin' Buffalo. And Price is at home. Even if he doesn't perform well, it seems like an obvious one.

    As for Lou, seems like Chicago is not that big of a threat offensively and Florida is at home, which is more of an advantage than most poolies realize. Washington seems so Jekyll and Hyde, but they are on the 2nd half of the b2b and playing on the road.

    I totally agree with the first point. Buffalo got their first win in awhile and are on a back to back, Price has something to prove and Mtl should be desperate for the win.
    I am now close to rethinking the whole Luo thing. Your points about Chicago and Washington are exactly why I wasn't sure about Holtby. Tough match up on a back to back and Luo is playing so well. Damn you three goalies, why can't one of you not be playing so this was an easy decision.

    I just like to avoid players coming back from injury if I can for a few games. I think you can do that so that's why I give that advice
