Who to start this week: Nittymaki or Rinne?

[mhn8995]

Looking for advice re. who to start between Rinne and Nittymaki as my second goalie (Lundqvist is a no-brainer with a 4-game week). Rinne has 3 games this week, with 2 on back-to-back nights (weds @ Pho, sat. @ LA, sun @Ana). Nitty has 3 games with no back-to-backs (tues @ Min, thurs @ Stl., sat home v. TB).

Scoring for goalies in my league: 3 for a win, 0.2 for a save, -1 for GA, 2 for a SO.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

One more for Rinne. In addition to being better than Niity he has the easier schedule too. Here's how it breaks down...

Rinne- (opponents goals per game avg.)

Pho- 2.30
LAK- 2.91
ANA- 2.42

Niitymaki-

MIN- 2.60
STL- 2.78
TB- 3.50
