    Well read above. I don't need to start him tonight. But I just have a bad feeling about this one tonight. Canucks seemed to really play well against Halak. But Halak stole the show.

    My league counts W, GAA, SV%, SO.

    Would you risk starting Elliott tonight or just bench him for today?

    Hard to argue against 10 straight wins for the Sens. Played last night in Buffalo. Really tough call.... Flip a coin? The advice of an "expert"... haha.

    bench him. i think the nucks are gonna destroy him tonight. if you can afford benching him, do it. if you are depserate for the stats then obviously play him. just go with your hunch. it will feel much less painful if you bench a win than play with him getting pulled in the 1st.

    He will either win big or loose big. If you can afford it then sit him. If you think that a possible SO will make or break your season then Start him.

    I had to start two of Elliott, Hiller and Conklin tonight. On a whim I chose to start Elliott and sit Hiller. Feeling pretty good about that one Too bad that Conklin lost, but I had 14 straight goalie wins and not a single loss going back to the start of last week, so I don't think I'm entitled to whine about a little loss After all, my weekly stats in six games has now gotten as bad as 1.3 GAA and .96 SV%. I was at 0.7 and .98 before
    GO WINGS!

    He & Halak came through big time for me. I wouldn't have played him against Luongo though.
