    Default Brodeur or Quick?

    Don't post these often, but for me to even have a slight chance of avoiding my first loss of the season, I need to start a goalie that will pick up a win and let in one or less goals. Easy right?

    Yea - pretty much a hopeless cause, but if you had to pick between Brodeur vs. MTL or Quick vs. DET, who would it be?

    Detroit is on a roll lately and have been scoring a bunch of goals whereas MTL has been pretty weak offensively. However, there's no doubt as to who's been the better goalie between Quick and Brodeur this year...

    If you had to pick 1 only and need a great game or nothing I would play the match up instead of the goalie. I would go with Marty. This is the higher risk but I see very little chance of Quick and LA holding DET to 1 goal or less tonight tonight.

    Just checked NJ is a betting favorite tonight well LA is a big dog. This is a tool I like to use when picking my goalies as I'm not paying any juice in fantasy hockey.

    Edited- I posted this before seeing b0ndon pick. I'm now going to put my house on Det tonight lol

    Brodeur would be my call in this situation. Might be wrong but I think that is the matchup that gives you the best chance. Wings are healthy and rolling.

    I'd start Quick.

    Then again I may be steering you to wrong direction here so that you'd lose this week

    Yea, leaning towards Brodeur. Feel unlikely that he will let in one or less but at the same time I feel more confident of the Devils netting a win than the Kings.

    This will sound contradictory but the best chance you have of getting a win with one goal or less, is with Brodeur. He has amazing career stats against Montreal.

    The best chance you have of getting a win, is with Quick. MTL will be fired up after having they chains cut off by the firing of Martin. NJ is playing on the second leg of a back to back.

    L.A has a lot to prove, and I think they will come out strong tonight.

    This isn't making the decision any easier haha.

    Think I'm going to roll with Brodeur as he posted one of his only solid outings this year in the game against MTL.

    Still have 30 minutes to change my mind another 30 times though.

    Actually dyz, the lineups have already been locked for tonight.

    Unless you have that duo in another league besides the UHL as well.

    This is not contradictory. It makes perfect sense to me and was my feeling exactly when picking Brodeur tonight. I think that game has a better chance of being a 2-1 game either way then the other.
