My G matchups tonight

[Right handed shot]

Just trying to get back into e positive area in rate stats with the damage sustained early by Price and Andersen who are now seemingly on track to perform to the back of their cards for the most part. Got Sv% up to .907 and GAA closing in on dropping under three. It's been quite a ride for the last quarter of the season.. Subban coming in fairly handy so far as well. With that being said, what are your thought's on these matchups tonight?

Andersen vs. CGY (This could be a scoring festival)
Subban vs. DAL (This could be a disaster)

Thought's on sitting them both vs. playing them?

Good in W's about midway of the pack. We do have a minimum of 6000 Goalie minutes to be played or you don't qualify for a money spot. I just have a gut feeling tonight could be one of those night's that drops you back down to where you just came from. I could be wrong as well of course but just wanted some more opinions here.

Thanks in advance!

I would definitely not start Subban against Dallas.

I would consider starting Andersen but I would hum and haw about it.

I think he has a decent chance at getting you a W... but it might be at the cost of some points on the percentages... so if you are working hard to build up the percentages and are not as worried about the potential win.. then I would sit them both

In a HTH starting Smith and Andersen. (Humming and Hawing though).

I would go with Anderson. It's early enough that you can recover.

***This is exactly what I thought going into last night with Elliot.

Yep. I think Subban could be an unmitigated disaster tonight (wait for the shutout lol!). Andersen can win yes but I can't see this being a low scoring game at all. Maybe play Andersen but definitely sit Subban because when you play a rookie G against an offense like Dallas, you deserve exactly what you get.

Yeah I hear ya, it's a slippery slope but I can get behind Andersen. Seems reasonable.

Haha at least you're guaranteed a W!

i have been going through this all year. For the past ten games or so have followed the advice of one of the “sages” of the forum who said “you didn’t draft them to sit them on the bench”, and it has worked out well for me (am 2nd in W, and climbing in GAA & SV%). I am dressing Andersen and Hank tonight, and sitting Darling...hopefully Hank will help keep the GAA & SV% respectable.

I'd start Anderson.

I agree with that. Definitely didn't draft them to sit them but, Subban could be a huge mistake. Can't get behind that one.

i also agree with the Subban suggestions. There is a difference when you are trying to decide what to do with a quality, veteran G who may be going through a difficult stretch (I.E. Hank, Freddie, Price etc. this season), and an untested rookie/starter facing a veteran team.

100%. Thanks for all the replies. Much appreciated!
