Planning for Sunday: Emery or Enroth?

[c00per67]

I'm looking ahead to Sunday, as it is the last day of my playoffs. Which goalie is the best bet for a solid Sunday start: Emery vs Dallas, or Enroth vs Carolina? Both teams real starters are hurt, will they be back?

Miller might be back Saturday or Sunday: http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/sa...icle380623.ece

Hiller is not coming back this week, that's for sure. But it is difficult to tell whether Emery gets the Saturday or Sunday start. I don't think he plays B2B.

This means that you do not yet have a sure bet for Sunday - unless more information comes today. Keep an eye on Ducks and Sabres blogs:

If you need goalie stats in these fantasy playoffs, I know of exactly ZERO goalies that are putting up better stats than Emery right now...OK, maybe Timmy T, but other than him

Emery is on fire, roll with him unless something drastic changes...and the Ducks just keep heating up. Should be a lengthy playoff run

Agree 100%. I doubt the Ducks are going to want to throw Dan Ellis into the Shark tank and since there's reports that Hiller is still feeling vertigo symptoms I would bet on Emery getting the SJ start just because its the more important game.

Agreed. I can't see the Ducks rolling anyone but Emery right now even in a back-to-back situation. And if he's playing, I'd be dressing him over almost anyone right now.

Started wondering about this... Isn't Dallas game more important than SJ game? Dallas is the only team that is a serious threat to Anaheim's playoff chances.

I think they HAVE TO play Emery Sunday, but the question is can he already now handle B2B? They do have two days rest after Sunday though.

That's a very good point I hadn't thought about BE, thanks for bringing it up.

That being said, I have no clue anymore what they're going to do lol, I think 6 starts in is a little too soon for a B2B when he hasn't played in over a year.
If anything I think that Emery starting the B2B might depend on how hard he gets pelted against SJ.
I honestly can't see the Ducks feeling anything close to safe with Ellis in net against the Sharks though.
