Originally posted by Just Lou: I think a good reason for not having it at 1 would be if one of your goalies at the begining of the week has shutout, or only gives up a goal and has a great save pct, you could bench your goalies the rest of the week and win GAA and SV%. 3 Goalie starts, with 3 goalies, is nothing for a whole week. If people are playing everyday, they should have at least 6 or 7 starts per week.
Good point Lou. But by the same token if your Gaolie has a shutout at the begining of the week and then only plays one more NHL game the rest of the week, you don't get credited for that shutout.
We also have the option to make it a minimum of TWO games if we want to. We can do that also.
I personally think that a 3 game minimun start is just to many. There are many instances where a starting goalie on an NHL team will get hte first two starts for the week and then the backup guy gets the third one.
So maybe changing it to TWO games minimum would be more realistic.
So we can decide if it should stay at 3 Games, be changed to 2 games, or changed to 1 game.
