    Default First week of Playoffs: Who to start?

    We play with a weekly lock, so I can only play one:

    Hellebuyck @NSH @NJ @NYI MIN
    Gibson STL BUF SJ
    Greiss CAR @CAR WPG CBJ

    I'm tempted to put in Greiss with WPG being on the road 3/4 games and Gibson just coming back and ANA playing a back-to-back.

    Thought?
    14 Team | Keep 5 | H2H Weekly Lock

    Greiss would be my choice too. With the Isles in the playoff chase he may even get all 4 games.

    Gibson is sparkling at home with a 2.06GAA and a .930 SV. It's quite likely he only starts 2 games though.

    Hellebuyck is awful on the road with a 3.14GAA and an .899 SV. I would bet on him starting all 4 games though, which amounts to more saved shots for you.

    Greiss was horrific his last game against Carolina (7 goals against), so I'm betting he'll be looking for some redemption. He was also pulled in the 1st against CBJ when they were blown out 7-0. Still might be your best bet though. But what I hate about these bad teams is how hard they compete when nothing is on the line. Not sure how they'll handle the b2b, but I suspect that if the NYI win the 1st game, Berube will start the second.

    I hope all of this information helps you buddy.

    Griese makes the most sense to me.
