    Default Spot start for today (too many options!)

    There are too many available spot start options for tonight. Which is better.

    Allen vs. OTT - STL seems to be getting better since the coach change
    Hammond vs. STL - STL playing second back to back
    Nilsson vs. SJ - He's been fairly decent this year
    Lack vs. WAS - I own Holtby so guaranteed win, but how much does this mess up my GAA and SV%?
    Markstrom vs. NAS - NAS seems just average this year
    Sarros (if he starts) vs. VAN - I just like Sarros here.

    I would take Allen here, as I think the coaching change helps them win some games early on

    a coaching change usually gets some early results so I agree with the above

    I like Saros as well...but it's not even confirmed yet...so I'd go Allen as well.

    Allen... because the other goalies all look far more posied to pick up a loss, and because Hammond is starting in the opposite crease.

    Allen or Markstrom. Lack is madness and Saros has shipped 12 goals in last three games and has to continue regressing

    Allen vs. OTT - STL seems to be getting better since the coach change Easiest pick to make, best G on the list - season to date aside
    Hammond vs. STL - STL playing second back to back - Hammond is not the hamburglar anymore.
    Nilsson vs. SJ - He's been fairly decent this year - sj one of the hottest teams in the league right now.
    Lack vs. WAS - I own Holtby so guaranteed win, but how much does this mess up my GAA and SV%? - starting anyone vs. wsh is dangerous
    Markstrom vs. NAS - NAS seems just average this year - nash has been better as of late.. Van is awful on the road.. I mean dreadful
    Sarros (if he starts) vs. VAN - I just like Sarros here.
    - if he starts, I actually like this one even more than Allen based on Van's lethargy on the road

    Is Korpisalo starting for CBJ at Detroit? If so not sure about it, could go either way

    Reflecting on this i was fuming looking at the box scores and seeing Pickard and Johnson with strong games after Greiss lit up my goalie categories on Monday and the other GM had Lundqvist going... Totally forgot I dressed Allen (TBH was expecting to see Hutton had been out in last minute - it's been one of those seasons in net).... Oh and Bishop in my second slot lol still only winning 3 of 5 categories!

    Thanks for suggesting Allen everyone! I had him and Holtby going yesterday, it's been a good night!
