Sounds like Samsonov is starting. This seems odd. TB has the sharp shooters and CLB does not. Sammy is going to be tested tonight to say the least. I’m confused on this decision by Todd.

Gotta see what the rook can do against good offenses at some point.
I’ll be in the house for the game tonight so I’m looking forward to seeing him play in person.
I'm wondering how they will view Samsonov down the road if he gives up 10 tonight..

Good.I
Holtby played in 24 games including his disaster vs Colorado and allowed 66 goals in these games. The 24 opposing teams scored 2385 goals in 773 games this season = 74.161 goals per 24 games.
Samsonov played in 10 games and allowed 24 goals in these games. The 10 opposing teams scored 952 goals in 326 games this season = 29.257 goals per 10 games.
II
Holtby allowed 0.34 less goals per game than League average.
Samsonov allowed 0.53 less goals per game than League average.
III
Samsonov is better than Holtby and Todd is 100% smart to play him vs better scoring teams.

There's a possibility that Reirden would like to torture him for whole 60 minutes just to get some experience.If they give up 10 then isn't it more likely that Samsonov gives up the first 3-4 and Holtby the rest?
We aren't the Habs. We don't leave our goalie hang out to dry when he's given up 8 goals in a game.

Because only Reirden knows for sure.
Relax, I was just f***ing around.If I follow this, we can't know that Reirden doesn't want to torture Sammy, only Reirden can know this for sure... is that your position?
Relax, I was just ****ing around.
In order to disprove this I looked at who has played when Lewington has been in, and Samsonov played the last 4 games when 78 got a sweater (once was in relief)Because only Reirden knows for sure.
