    Default H2H Playoffs - Who to start tonight?

    Alright, our playoffs start a week earlier than most. I need my goaltending to really step it up this week especially since my opponent has Rinne/Vokoun and picked up 8As on monday.

    Assuming Bob and Bryz get the starts, which 2 goalies do I start?

    Bobrovsky vs Florida
    Bryzgalov vs Calgary
    Bruins Goalie vs Columbus

    I think Bryz is a no brainer as he has been great lately. The Bruins goaltending stunk it up last week but are going up against Columbus which could be a good chance to turn it around. Philly hasn't been playing the greatest but are going up against a horrible Panthers team.

    League details/stats in sig.

    Thanks guys.

    When I have trouble deciding, I usually ignore the matchup and go with the better goalie. Thomas would definitely go in if he's starting, and Rask has been a bit more consistent lately than Bobrovsky, so I would go with Bryzgalov and Boston.

    Haha my playoffs started a week early too!
    Florida seems to be digging deep to win against the big teams at home lately (in the last 3 games they've beaten Chicago and Tampa).
    If you've already decided to go with Bryz cuz of the hot streak (which is pretty sound), then I would go with Bruins goalie for the other choice.

    Yeah, I think you guys are probably right. I was leaning towards Bob but Philly hasn't been playing great and I think tonight the Bruins will work hard to break their slump.

    Thanks for the input!

    Looks like Rask is the likely starter for the Bruins tonight, so the question is; is everyone in agreement to start Rask over Bob?

    Well the decision was MUCH easier when we were hoping that Thomas would be in
    But yeah I would still stick with Rask if it were my team. Hopefully Bob doesn't pick tonight to get his first shutout of the season lol

    Looks like Boucher is getting the start tonight for Philly. Haha, easy decision for me now.

    Haha this is hilarious! There were like 4 threads in the last 5 hours inquiring about who to start, and they all solved themselves lol.
