    Default Pick 2 starts tomorrow! Rep given.

    Struggling with this choice.

    Price vs Fla
    Quick vs NJ
    Neuvirth @ Cgy

    Leaning towards Price and Neuv, just got a bad feeling about NJ tomorrow, but everytime i benched Quick last year it burned me.

    Mtl is on a 5 game win streak, Florida sucks and Markov's returning tomorrow, 3 good reasons for Price.
    Neuvirth is hot right now, but the Caps arent...Sutter just called out a lot of his players so the Flames should be motivated.
    Quick is hot too, but I dont trust LAs defense without Doughty, and NJ seems due to breakout offensively.

    I'm stumped.

    Sounds like your gut says Price and Neuvirth. Go with your gut. You can overthink these things.

    Price for sure, the Panthers can't score to save their life and the Habs are playing extremely well...I'd also take Quick against the Devils, the Kings are at home and I haven't seen anything yet from the Devils to suggest they've got their shit together, I'd keep betting against them until they do. The Caps as I've noted just don't look themselves and CAL is playing pretty decent

    I agree on Price and Quick. I think Neuvy should be getting tired, he's been a darned Ironman this season. Also Calgary has about 5.5 goals per game thru their last 4.

    I'm on board with this. Wsh hasn't been playing well and Cgy has.

    One more vote for Price and Quick. Pretty much for all the reasons said. I'd add that the Devils will be playing the second game of a back-to-back and their third game in 4 nights.

    Sorry for being less analytical than others in my first reply, but I just don't think anyone really knows what any particular goalie will do on any particular night. Look at Turco tonight. Coming off a great game, at home, against the last-place team in the conference. Also was 18-6-2 lifetime vs. the Oil. Doubt any Turco owner benched him.

    One period, four goals, and out.

    Give me Quick and Neuvirth.

    LA plays NJ who have been terrible and will be playing them on the back end of a back to back nights. LA has been solid and should continue to do so.

    WSH won't lose two in a row and Neuvirth has been nothing but spectacular for the Caps.

    MTL is playing twice in as many nights too. I'm just not sold on playing the goalie in the second game of back to back.

    All that being said your in a nice situation - I don't think you can really lose.

    Good luck with your choice!

    Went with Price and Quick. Doh! I never get these right...the 1 time this year I did get it right, was only cause I thought I changed my lineup but I didnt hit "submit" afterwards.
    Thanks for responses.

    I couldn't have been more wrong on that one, could I? That was a beat-down.

    I wouldn't take it too much to heart. Goalies are so tough to judge (sorry for the Price recommendation, btw). I'm usually happy as long as I don't have a dressed guy getting shelled and the best night on the bench.
