Donīt play chicken style and bench all goalies to keep your GAA and SV% as it is. Thatīs a very shabby move in fantasy hockey.
Iīd play Ward.
As the title says, I'm wondering if I should start a goalie tomorrow.
My options are Cam Ward against Phi and/or Jonas Hiller (not sure if he's starting or not) against Wpg. Also I may drop a defence guy for Fasth so I have both Anaheim goalies, as per the suggestion of someone. So either him or Hiller against Wpg vs. Ward against Phi
Currently in the goalie categories, here are mine and my opponents stats:
Me: 1 W, 0 SO, 2.796 GAA (9 GA, 193 MIN), 0.9072 SV% (9 GA, 88 SV)
Him: 1 W, 0 SO, 4.126 GAA (11 GA, 159 MIN), 0.8736 SV% (11 GA, 76 SV)
So the only reason I'd really want to start a goalie is to get another win and if everything goes perfectly, a SO to give me the lead in one or both categories. But at the same time I don't want to risk losing in the GAA or SV% cats (looks like my goalie would have to do pretty bad to lose in those though). Tomorrow is the last day of the matchup and I'm losing in most of the skater categories so I want to win as many goalie ones as possible

Ok just making sure. I think I would start Ward. Philly havnt looked like an offensive force so I would do it. Good luck
Forget my last reply. Khodubin is starting

Almost a sure bet to be Hiller. Start him and good luck!

Nothing confirmed yet, but it's looking like most sites are saying Fasth is probably starting tonight. It was suggested to me to pick him up so I have both Anaheim goalies (he's a FA), so maybe I'll do that and start him tonight. Hopefully he doesn't have a showing like he did against Colorado!

And Fasth did start....terrible numbers too, and he'll probably get the win. He's going to be Hiller's handcuff again:

Yeah I ended up picking him up, but I guess it was too late (only like half an hour before the game started), so it wouldn't let me play him today. Too bad, would have gotten an extra win by him to win that category instead of having it a tie and his other numbers wouldn't have brought mine down enough to lose those cats. Ah well!
4-5-2 in the first matchup, so could be worse lol, and still a long ways to go!
