Hot hand or stud?
Ride the hot hand in Schneider or go with my stud in Rinne?

This is one of those very rare situations where I would bench the stud.
130+ consecutive minutes of shutout hockey doesn't lie.
That and I don't like facing the red-hot wings right now. They have looked very good recently and J-Ho is playing amazing.
I am way more afraid of the Sharks than I am of the Red Wings. Also look at Rinne's career numbers vs. the Wings:
8-2-3, 2.12 GAA, .938 Sv%, 3 SO
Play the stud.
I would start the guy who has lost his last 6 starts - must be due huh? Ignore those shutouts of Schneiders.
I dunno - these are tough calls - I think Metaldude has a good point, but if you flip the argument to who do you fear more the Preds or the Canucks - I think it offsets.

Huh? Rinne hasn't lost his last six starts, he's lost his last three.
In any case though, Rinne is a must-start for me along with Lundqvist. I would start him over Schneider.

Yeah you are right - now it's only 4.
So did you end up taking my advice or did you listen to everyone else in this thread?Originally Posted by Ari Gold

Sigh... this is what happens when you don't listen to blayze.I went with my stud
It's ok... rookie mistake... in time you'll learn that I'm always right
I think the better advice would just be to take B0ndon's goalie recommendation, and do the exact opposite. That usually works out in your favor, although your advice could be a close second in this case.Sigh... this is what happens when you don't listen to blayze.

Yeah once B0ndon chimed in, I knew it was a lock that I would be wining this debate. Unfortunately by the time he made his prophecy, the puck had just dropped and it was too late to get in on any action.
B0n - next time please be more considerate and make your bold predictions sooner so we have ample time to bet accordingly. Thanks.
oops wrong thread.
