Is there an angle when b/up goalie starts?

i have been burned a couple of times by playing against the back up.

Which was you leaning?

I think it really depends on the backup.

Sometimes I'm like you Player, i see a backup starting and assume that they'll lose. But I think that if you have a decent backup, even if they haven't played in a while, they like to step it up when they get a chance. I find it's a hard angle to play, but goalies is always something i look at before i make a play

I tend to agree with PLP. Sometimes the backup goalie will really give it his all knowing that if he wins that game, he might start the next game and if he wins that game. than the coaches know that he can come in and maybe even save a game or two if a starter falters. It never hurts to have a backup goalie who is playing well.

One reason you play teams in B2b is getting the BU Netminder....does Not always work......
Boys sometimes step up in front of the 2nd.

exactly right maddog.

not the case with the Islanders though.

Their Captain is horrible. he's a real dog. terrible for the team. miro isn't greatest team mate either from what i hear. i believe they've got some serious chemistry problems over there. milbury's an idiot too.
