    Default Legacy - worth a pick up?

    I'm barely holding onto 1st in my deep keeper. We're allowed to carry 3 goalies and must start 2. I have Quick, Osgood and Biron. Legacy is available -should I drop Biron or Osgood and pick him up? Will he get enough starts the rest of the way to make this worth it? Or should I wait to see what happens by the trade deadline / Olympics and see if Biron lands somewhere where he'll play more.

    I guess I'm not that surprised that noone responded - not exactly a sexy topic. I'm going to take this as a sign that I shouldn't pick up Legacy.

    It's a tough call. I'm betting Ward sits for the rest of the year in which case you have Legace getting a decent (at least 1/2 I would guess) number of starts the rest of the year. He's been so-so, but that's better than Biron who has started twice in about 2 months.

    I own both right now and if I had to pick one I would go with Legace. It's a tough call, but I can't figure out where Biron goes, and when he does will he get 50% of the starts there? If you think you HAVE to have games, I think Legace is actually the safer pick.

    If you don't need the starts, stick with Biron for now and see how it plays out. He's the better goalie and in my opinion the Isles sort of screwed up his value for a trade. His play was inconsistent, but not terrible, the Isles just never scored when he played well or his record would have been better and more starts likely would have followed.

    Either way, I don't envy the decision. (I know that didn't help much, but it's my 2 cents)

    I picked up Legacy and he's been putting up respectable numbers. Who knows how long that will last, but he will be starting most games, compared to Osgood who has clearly lost the starting job to Howard.

    is justin peters available -I think he'll start more than legace down the stretch

    and imo , even if biron does get traded it will be to a team that will have him as insurance as opposed to wanting him to actually start alot .

    Osgood blows and has lost the job, drop Osbad and add Legace.

    Theres no question if Ward sits, the Hurricanes will want to see what Peters can give them, especially with Murphy in the background.

    If u have space id consider both(drop Osgood and Biron)

    Thanks for everyone's input. Unfortunately I had to make the move on Friday so I decided to not pick up Legacy. Even with Ward out, I figure he'll split duties with Peters. Hopefully Biron gets a few more sniffs at starts if he gets traded, and I guess I can always hope against hope for Osgood to get some more starts as Detroit makes a playoff push.
