Do I start Halak, Bryz or Lindback this week? (I'm going with the majority here)

[baumer]

Whoever Dobbernation tells me to go with, I am going with this week. I'm that ambivalent about which way to go. So any and all input warrants REP...as long as I can give it to you.

My goalie stats are simply 2 points for a win and 3 for a SO.

Halak plays 4 this week but he is coming off a groin issue so that scares me. Bryz also plays 4 but all on the road. Lindback plays three but they look like winnable games.

Halak plays the Kings at home, then Detroit, Calgary and Vancouver on the road.

Bryz is all road and all four games are B2B (so maybew Boucher plays one). He plays Toronto, Jets, Devils, Habs.

Lindback is home to Montreal, home to Wash and on the road in Fla. No B2B's and he will play all three as Garon was pulled last night.

We only start 6 guys and go H2H. My goalie this week is going to determine if I win or lose (I think) as my offense with the exception of Benn, has gone cold. So I need some good opinions on who of the three to start.

Thanks ahead of time.

Speaking as a Lightning fan and a hockey fan, I'd go with Lindback. Like you said, it's a pretty simple schedule for the next 3 games, if the team can get back on their feet, which they will.

The thing with Lindback, he's kind of unpredictable. He looks solid right now of course, but he's coming out of Nashville as Rinne's shadow, and he's been given a heavy workload. IMO, he's carrying it like he's been expected too. Not marvelous, but not too shabby either.

My vote, Lindback.

Thanks for the post. That's one. And you make some good points. REP for you.

Oh thank you, I appreciate it! Always happy to help!

Another vote for Lindback mainly based on quality of competition. Bryz is out due to the B2B games. Halak could be a good choice but St Louis haven't been shutting teams down the way they did at the start of the season. Going up against Vancouver and Detroit in there is scary.

Thanks 4T2...rep as well.....need some more opinions before 7pm.

[baumer]

I would love some more opinions guys.....please?

I own Bryz & Halak in some of my main leagues... and I'd go with Lindback too.
TB just has a nice spread of three games against very beatable opponents.

[baumer]

Ok, that's three for Lindback...i gave rep to all of you except you pengwin.....I am not allowed to give you any for a while apparently.

I like LIndback as well. Though I do fear WSH. I know people are writing them off, but they're slowly getting their offense figured out with Oates and Ovechkin has been getting on the score sheet regularly and is due for a big game soon.
