I might go with tokarski against Philly.

Price on the road against a divisional opponent on Sunday.

Essentially, I feel Detroit is the bigger game and I want my best against them.

Or would you use price for both? I think that's uneccessary.

Price never plays back-to-back. Probably better to save him for Detroit's better skaters; play Tokarski against Philly.

I would say logically Tokarski against Philly and Price against Detroit but they also prefer to play Price in front of the home crowd, so who knows.

I think they give Price the game vs. the flyers for the home crowd also if you have to pull Dustin during the game and have a game the next day than Price doen't really get any time off...

I feel that Philly is the team more likely to give us fits. I think against us, they are the more potent team offensively,

Detroit, I feel, is not quite so deadly from top to bottom. We can grind it out (or they grind it out, depending on how you look at it) and risk OT or the shootout. Of course, Datsyuk and Zetterberg can score on any given night, and so can Nyquist, but I think we're more even with the Wings.

Like they say all the time. You throw your backup to the proverbial wolves.

I believe the Wings would be these said wolves, so you play Tokarski against them.

I agree about the relative importance. However, Tokarski is capable of winning against either team and Price could lose against one or both.

Saturday's Hockey Night in Canada at Home? Definitely Price in net.

With Tikker's presence though, we have a great shot at winning the b2b.

Price vs Philly and Tokarsi vs Detroit. Because we have a tough tretch ahead and we need him fresh for the Pittsburgh game Tuesday. Give him the rest Sun and Mon.

Also he's hot right now, don't want to sit him unless you have to (which you would have to in a back to ack situation)

We got the Pens and Blues next week so Toker has to play one game this weekend, I'd put him in against the Flyers
