Default Hiller v Neuvirth

Week 2 of my first round playoff series and we start 2 goalies.

Lundqvist is a sure starter, and normally Hiller would easily be my no 2 but Neuvirth is playing well and the Caps are surging and have 3 home games this week. Plus Hiller has 3 game in 4 nights and I'm afraid with the workload he's faced (24 straight starts) he could have one of those meltdown games that kill you in fantasy playoffs.

Hiller - Cgy/@LA b2b, Edm - 3 games in 4 nights
Neuvirth - NJ, Phi, Car - no b2b

Meanwhile my opponent has:

Backstrom - @Mon/@Det b2b, Col, @Col
Halak - @Van, @SJ, Chi - tough schedule but no b2b

Advice appreciated!

I don't think you have to worry about your opponent. Backstrom should get lit up at least one of those games, maybe more. Halak isn't playing in Vancouver and SJ and CHI aren't exactly easy games. I think you should win this matchup. However for starts, I think I like Hiller a bit more. IMO, they are easier match ups. NJ and Phi are exactly cakewalks and CAR seems to have found their game back. If I had to choose, I would go with Hiller. And it may just take one bad game for Vokoun to take the starting job back from Neuvirth. IMO, You have to go with your stud for this one.

EDIT: WAS is too hot and cold too. I don't really trust them too much.
