Halak Handcuff?

[jagoggin]

I have benched Halak until he wins at least 1 game. In the meantime, my other goalies are Bryzgalov, Hedburg and Montoya with Brodeur on IR. I am teetering on dropping Montoya and picking up Elliott. Garon is also a FA. Any advice would be much appreciated!

That's the move I'd make if I were you. I think having Halak kinda forces you to take Elliott over Garon. At least you'd lock up Blues starts instead of having only a piece of multiple uncertain situations (STL and TB as well as NYI). Also, the Blues have had a brutal schedule, being in the midst of eight road games in a nine-game stretch. That evens out next month.
