    Default Allen worth considering?

    12-Team, Points League
    2 Center, 2 Left Wing, 2 Right Wing, 4 Defense, 2 Utility, 4 Bench, 2-4 Goalies, 2 IR
    Skater Points: G:3, A:2, PPP:1, SHG:2, FOW:0.1, SOG0.25, HIT:0.25, BLK:0.5
    Goalie Points: W:5, SO:3, GA:-1, SV:0.1

    Forwards: Aho(C,LW), Kadri(C), E Kane(LW), B Schenn(C,LW), E Lindholm(C,RW), Marchessaul(LW,RW), Buchnevich(LW,RW), Suzuki(C), Wheeler(C,RW), Gurianov{LW,RW], Fiala (C,LW,RW), Bennett (C,LW), Seguin(C)[IR]

    Defense: Pietrangelo, Hamilton, Mo Rielly, Fox

    Goalies: Jarry, Dubnyk, Grubauer[IR]
    ---

    Round 1 started today, making a run as the #1 seed. Stuck Grubauer in IR the other day and immediately picked up Dubnyk. Played 1 game and was average, but got the win. I assume he'll start Colorado's next game back.

    Just saw Allen started the 2nd period after Price started the game. If Price is out for some time, should I drop Dubnyk for Allen? I'll post their upcoming schedules below.

    Dubnyk: Rd 1 - @EDM/(@CGY/@CGY back2back), Rd 2 - @VGK/@VGK/(SJS/SJS b2b)
    Allen: Rd 1 - @STL/@STL, Rd 2 - @CGY/TOR/(WPG/OTT b2b)

    Other FAs, if curious: Hart, Kuemper, Gibson, Holtby, Korpisalo, Jones, DeSmith Oettinger, Petersen, Rinne, Nedeljkovic, Murray, Gorgiev, Blackwood

    Both goalies likely have 2 more starts this week, 3 next week. Hopefully Grubauer will be good by then. If not, I may be back here in the forums.
    Any and all advice is welcome, thanks folks!

    Since Gallagher went down, the Habs have scored 12 goals in 8 games. They already weren't giving Allen run support, but now they can't score with either goalie in.

    I'd look towards Oettinger, who should start against Detroit tomorrow and probably once more this week. Get through this week and worry about next week then since there's a good chance you get Gru back.

    "Dubnyk: Rd 1 - @EDM/(@CGY/@CGY back2back), Rd 2 - @VGK/@VGK/(SJS/SJS b2b)

    This does not look right to me. I think you flipped round 1.

    Allen is the much better goalie and Calgary is all but eliminated after losing the Ottawa again tonight. I would go with Allen.

    I'd prefer Oettinger to Allen, I think, but Allen should be decent. He's fine as a backup, not a starter, but can handle taking over for stretches.Both over Dubnyk.

    As mentioned, Allen isn't getting much for offensive support. To be honest, it's been this way most of the year for him.

    I actually like Dubnyk in Colorado but how many games will they play while in COVID protocol remains to be seen. Right now, their next scheduled game is Saturday the 24th. Gruabauer has already been declared out for two weeks as of Sunday so hes out this week and next for sure.

    One guy I'd consider off that FA pile is Darcy Kuemper. I'd prefer him to Doobie or Allen.
