Pick 2 for Saturday

This hasn't happened too many times this season, but I think I may have 4 goalies starting on the same night. The only confirmed starter is Bernier so far, but I also think ANA rides the hot hand in Hiller and NYR may rest Lundqvist for Sunday against PHI. I'm assuming that Bryz goes unless he gets the "flu" again. My picks are in bold, but I'm wondering what other people think.

Hiller(ANA) @ Bryzgalov(PHX)
EDM @ Bernier(LA)
Biron(NYR) @ MTL

Here are my thoughts:

I don't like to start my goalies against each other, so ideally I'm looking to pick one of Hiller/Bryz and one of Bernier/Biron.

Hiller is 2-1 vs PHX this season, while Bryz is 1-2 vs ANA with 1 SHO. Hiller has 3 W and 2 SHO in his last 3 starts, while Bryz has won 3 consecutive starts and 4 of his last 5.

Biron has been pretty solid for a backup this season. It should be a close, low scoring game with MTL.

Bernier has been inconsistent this season and has given up 11 goals in his previous 2 starts. EDM has only won twice in its last 10 games, but LA has been just as bad.

I would go with Bernier and Hiller (tough choice but Ana has been rolling lately - so has Pho but I don't trust their offence as much).

I don't envy your choices though.

Thanks smarceljackson! Interesting that you would choose Bernier. He and LA have struggled lately and EDM can still score even if they have struggled too.

Anyone else have any thoughts?

EDIT: Lundqvist gets the start tonight. I will go with Hiller and Bernier. Thanks again.
