Sam Weinman at The Ranger Report says..."...when I asked the coach if Stephen Valiquette’s recent run against the Flyers—i.e. consecutive shutouts—merited consideration for Sunday, Renney smirked and said he thought about it, but is leaning toward Henrik Lundqvist.
I don’t blame him. Even Valiquette acknowledged that unlike with a pitcher in baseball, a goalie’s success against a specific opponent is overrated."
Steve Zipay at Blue Notes confirms here...
"Lundqvist will start against Philly"
...tough decision for Renney, but I think he made the right one. Games are too important and Lundqvist has been solid during this recent streak. A streak which ironically started with a Valiquette win over the Flyers.
