    Default Which 2 to Start Tonight - Vasilevskiy / Saros / Lehner

    I have 3 goalies likely to start (if not already confirmed to start) tonight.

    Vasilevskiy vs CAR
    Saros vs CHI
    Lehner vs SJS

    Vasilevskiy is the best goalie, but clearly has the toughest matchup. Saros has been out of this world in his previous 3 outtings against CHI. VGK against SJS is a shoe in for the W.

    My gut is telling me Vasilevskiy gets the bench tonight... but maybe I'm missing something?

    Help!

    I can get on board with benching Vasileskiy tonight.

    Thoughts:

    1) I am starting Saros vs Chicago for sure.

    2) What effect does the whole Patrick Marleau breaking the games played record tonight have on San Jose... is it too emotional and they flop? Or do they ride the emotion to a victory?

    Good point on #2. I just think Tampa is missing too much right now. And Carolina has been incredible for the last.....season.

    Either way...at least it's Monday so you have plenty of time to recover if it goes bad.

    Thanks for the insights! Would Rep, but says I can't rep you and need to spread the love elsewhere.
    Cheers!

    I was all ready to play Khudobin and Talbot and sit Saros but now you guys have me second guessing myself. All 3 have sterling records this year against their opponents.

    Sorry for the hijack but what do I do?

    I'd stick with Khudobin and Talbot. I think CHI has the best chance of upsetting the existing sterling record.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    That was my thinking, glad to see I'm not alone. Khudobin and Talbot, final answer. Thanks!
