Is Lundqvist a must start every game?

[Zen82]

I have he, Turco, and Auld. Roto league, I\'m up there in the wins, but not doing well in losses and average in save %. No shutouts.

I am considering benching Lundy and Turco tonight (Lundy at Wash and Turco at SJ).

Is this crazy?

I also have Henrik, but am starting Boucher tonight instead. Most nights it\'s automatic to start Lundqvist, but not tonight for me.

Do you have minimum starts per week? I also don\'t think I\'d start Turco in San Jose.

Good Luck

No minimum starts per week as it\'s a roto league.

We have a max number of games started and that\'s it.

Thanks for the advice, though - I think I\'ll keep him on the bench tonight.

I\'d play him every night unless he\'s going against a really hot team......or Detroit. Detroit always makes them look like a minor league squad.

You draft elite goalies cause they are elite. Play them every game and at the end of the season their numbers will speak for themselves. Unless a goalie is going through a rough streak don\'t sit them.(aka Turco)

While Lundy has let in 2 goals already I just heard an interesting stat. In his last 33 games Lundy has only allowed more than 3 goals in regulation once.
Play the odds...play Lundy all the time.
His only game where he allowed more than 3 was against Detroit....so if you really want to play the odds just sit him against Detroit which is once or twice a season.
