There have been uninspired afternoons, hence the lack of goalie posts, not to mention that the survivor pool is already over, so what's left to converse about?Well, it's only four games tonight, so let's have a quick peek at our starters tonight and we'll move on from there.
It looks like it should be Marc-Andre Fleury (John R.) going for the Penguins against the Lightning, who will have Ben Bishop (Allan) in the home net. Allan is only 36 points out of the money heading into tonight and could really use the win to help close that gap.
Cam Ward (Neil) is set to make his first start since coming back from a concussion, as he and the Hurricanes are in Winnipeg to take on the Jets. Connor Hellebuyck (Allan) is expected to get the start tonight for Winnipeg, giving Allan two starts tonight. I guess that's why his team won the survivor pool. Neil, on the other hand, is still hanging around the money conversation, only 14 points out himself.
The Calgary Flames will get the Columbus Blue Jackets on the second half of their back-to-back nights and they'll throw their number one, Karri Ramo (Brenda & Seward) at them. The Jackets went with Joonas Korpisalo (non-pool) in Vancouver last night, so it is more likely that they'll go with Anton Forsberg (non-pool), but who really knows for sure? The pool's leading duo continues to carry a 10-point lead this week and Ramo may get an easy 2 points here with a win.
Finally, a late Pacific Division battle, as the Arizona Coyotes and Anaheim Ducks will swim on the pond, with Anders Lindback (Dropped) and Frederik Andersen (Benson) in as the projected goalies. Benson sits down in 22nd, but gets a key start in a divisional game for the Ducks, for whatever that's worth.
