    Default Start Helley Over Holtby?

    Price is a lock for me tonight seeing as NJ is beat up and I am a big Habs homer...

    So when I look on Left Wing Lock, just to shop around for goalie advice, they have Khudobin at 67 and Hotbly at 33. This is even though Boston is on the 2nd half of a back to back. Crawford has the slight edge over Helley.

    Questions:
    Does anyone put stock into this site and their numbers?
    Are they right and if so how can Holtby so low for a game where Boston just played last night?

    Thanks for the input. Chasing down first and I need every edge I can get.

    I don't know about LWL... but I like helle for a solid bounce back game at home vs. chi.

    Holtby vs Boston this season: 1 GP, 1 Win, .939 SV%
    Holtby vs Boston career: 14 GP, 12 Wins, .940 SV%

    Boston on 2nd of back-to-back, I have no problem recommending Holtby here. Only reservation is that his numbers this season on the road are bad, like .885 SV% but his career road SV% is .915 so he should be better.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    I check LWL for who's starting but I have no idea what numbers you are referring to.

    Your Habs homerism could be a downfall for you tonight. Even without Hall, I think the Devils will give them a good game.

    That being said, I doubt anything I will say to you will change your mind on Price so Holtby would be my other choice.

    I went and looked the site, which I've never been to before - it's of no use to me in my league.

    I see that they score the opposing goalies in a game so that they total 100 with emphasis on SV% and GAA. This is completely useless across games, and here's why. Using those scores in that way, your two "must bench" goalies are Gibson & Holtby. I know that makes so little sense, that you need to not use them in that way.

    Unsure why the numbers come up that way, but their community pick is 60-40 Holtby. That makes more sense.

    Thanks for all the input guys. Got lucky there with my Homerism Axeman. That's part of my problem, when I am successful it just emboldens me to keep on putting Price out there. That and the fact I paid an astronomical amount for him in the offseason.
