Luongo or S. Mason tonight

**rival** · January 18, 2009, 10:29 AM

I\'ve got both, who should I start?

**revengespoon** · January 18, 2009, 11:15 AM

start both if you can. guarantees the win and it should be a low-scoring game. if you can only start one of them, go with mason. bobby lou is still shaking off the rust and vancouver has a lot of problems right now.

Start Luongo.
Canucks have been on a terrible slide, but they\'ll end it tonight. Can\'t lose 7 in a row at home. That would be abysmal.

Im planning on starting both myself. Guarenteed win and great stats should be had by all. Nobody is sure as hell gonna confuse this game with any All-Star Game in terms of scoring. B)

Thanks for the opinion guys. I have never been of the start both camp but I will give it a try.

What an embarrassment of riches you have, bud -- Mason and Luongo. Very nice.

I \"only\" have Luongo, so I\'ll be starting him with great confidence. The first start the other night was all about shaking off the rust. In his quotes, Lu said about halfway thru the 2nd he started to feel his game legs under him. And it\'s no coincidence he shut them out the rest of the way. So I think he\'s going to be just fine.

I\'ll be watching for sure.

I have both in one league and the only thing I have left to fight for is shutoouts - so they are both getting the start. However, if it matters to pick the right one then I would go with Luongo at home.

doesn\'t look good

i sat luongo anyway.

**rival** · January 18, 2009, 10:15 PM

Apparently the answer was to bench both of them. I never would have guessed that.

Dont be a wise guy letnry. Sometimes we give \"not so good\" advice. It happens. Given the teams that were playing and the lack of offensive power on most nights, this game should have been stats gold. Oh well, thats the nature of fantasy hockey. Sorry Rival!

In my defense, I called it when Mason got his last shutout against Washington. Everyone thought it was a bad idea to play Mason against Washington when they were w/o Nash & Huselius. Sometimes all the numbers and trends dont matter. When the fantasy gods want a 5-5 Columbus-Vancouver game and by God, their gonna get it.

**letnry** · January 19, 2009, 1:37 AM

sorry, I wasn\'t trying to be a wise guy at all, I was just as shocked as anybody. If I had those goalies I would have started them both too!

And I think we all know about the nature of fantasy hockey. I\'m still kicking myself for starting Kipper against PHX on Saturday.

**Shoeless** · January 19, 2009, 6:29 AM

Yeah I think no one is calling that game correctly. 10 goals?? ugh!
