For the rest of the week

League Stats: W, GAA, Sv, Sv%

My Team - 3,1.51, 90, .938
Pekka Rinne - Det
Jaroslav Halak - Cgy, @Cls
Luongo - Edm
Roloson - @Min, @ Chi


Opponent - 2, 1.62,98, .951
Thomas/Rask - Atl
Ward - @NYI, Buf

So based off of the stats and remaining starts I can win wins and saves. But if anyone could provide some insight into whether the goalies will start all of their remaining games it would be much appreciated. And which starts should I try to avoid.

He's in a pretty good position to win 2 of his 3 remaining games, so it would be good for you to plan on 2 more wins to win that cat. Thomas/Rask should hold his peripherals steady but I'm sure they'll slip a little with Ward so I can see his peripherals coming down a bit. Because he's behind in wins and you've got a ton of options left, he will have to start his goalies in all 3 contests which bodes well for you given that both the Isles and Sabres can light it up (the Isles moreso).

On your side, I would think Rinne will definitely get the start against the Wings and both Halak and Roloson will start at least 1 of their 2. Luongo will likely NOT start against EDM (too bad for your situation).

Given DET's goalie woes, Rinne's game is about as much of a sure thing as you have. I like St. Louis' matchups better than TB's, so I would probably roll Halak against CGY tonight while St. Louis' offense is still hot. My pick for Roloson would be MIN tomorrow if you need to start a 3rd guy. Those 3 could get you the needed wins AND peripherals. You'd still have Halak @ CBJ in your back pocket following those games if necessary. I'd stay away from Roloson @ CHI if I could though. Good luck!

Thanks for the advice, I was thinking along the same lines. My main concern is that the Lightning sit Roloson on saturday to play Chicago on the Sunday.

Right, in which case I'd abandon Roloson for the rest of the week and hope for some solid outings from Halak. Left Wing Lock begins to post the next day's goalie starters around 11pm the night before so I'd check in tonight to see about Luongo tomorrow - I will be since I've got Schneider. Either way, you've got some options and your opponent has none. You should do okay.
