As an outsider, who do you all see as the better match up Edmonton or Dallas?
Jets fan coming in peace. I'm in the middle of a hockey draft. Do you have a clear cut starter going into the playoffs?
I can't imagine they'll say for sure too far in advance but Thompson should get the first shot.
He's been very good recently and Hill's last 17 games have included 14 games of 3+ goals and 12 games below .900. So if you're thinking of drafting Hill, it might not be a good move regardless of if he starts or not.
Hill just hasn't been good but you can't count out and NHL coach's ability to say, well he has playoff experience!
His experience means jack shit if he keeps on letting in 3+ goals. Unless the coach really thinks he just has been coasting in all of his recent starts and will flip the switch in the playoffs. But I just don't know if I would risk it right now.
