    Default H2H Sunday goalie dilemma

    Last day of H2H for the week and it has never been this close.

    Me: 3W GAA 2.18 SV%.924 0SHO
    Other GM: 4W GAA 2.19 SV%.923 0SHO

    Other GM has no goalies today and I have the option to play Luongo against the high scoring Oilers. If I sit Lou I win 2 categories but if luongo can win and allow 2 goals or less I get a tie on wins. If he gets a shutout I go 3-0-1.

    I'm leaning towards the risk being greater than the reward.

    Thoughts?

    Gotta play him. You are losing 2 of the possible 3 cats and the other is a push right now (SO).


    There is a lot of risk since Loungo played hard last night but I would expect the Oilers to be tired too (lots of games lately and the flu).

    You need to have a chance at tying the W and winning the SV% cats.

    Youngblood made a mistake. I'm winning both the SV% and GAA by the slightest margin.
    Does that change your opinion?

    Crazynuck - can't see how it makes sense to put 4 points clearly at risk for the sake of gaining 1 and remotely 3. Not smart money to start Lou here. you already have 5 of a possible 8 goalie points this week - Penner and Hemsky are scoring in the top 5 in the league over the last two weeks - don't see a shutout.

    Yup I saw that - but the fact that you were asking means you were thinking about it - so I figured I would chirp. I didn't see you starting him after you thought about it.

    Default lou got the shut out

    The right move was not to play him. Now that you didn't play him, he got the shutout. But if you played him he would have lost and let in a ton of goals. So Frustrating!

    Funny how fantasy hockey works. Lou with the shutout.
    Look for Lou to start his normal November hot streak a bit earlier this season.
    Although I sat Lou I was happy with my decision.

    Yup right call based on probability and profit - I laughed out loud when I first glanced at the score. It was like - Duh! go figure. Loungo will start to roll now. Getting in the zone.

    You really should've played him and won these cats. Booooooooooooo

    Listen to me haha

    I must've read your opponents SV% as .925....sorry about that.....I probably would've told you to bench him too. But hope you played him anyways.

    Didn't play him... still the right move as I couldn't have only won 2 pts but lost 4 pts.
    I still won the week 7-2 instead of 8-1-1.
    Not a big deal... too high of a risk with a hot Oilers team the past week.
