Does anyone know if Roy will be in net tonight against CAL? I have a feeling he might:
- He would probably like to be in net for the teams 50th win.
- He is only one win behind NJ's Brodeur for the league lead in wins, and playing CAL would give him a good chance to tie Brodeur.

Aebischer is a good goalie(11-5-3), but seeing Roy in net would strengthen my choice in this one.
Can anyone out there help me on this one?

According to a message posted on the ESPN COL message board, Aebischer will get the start tonight. The poster didn't say where he got the info from though, so take it for what it's worth.

Thanks Dimmu,
I've also seen that info a few places too, this one's gonna be on the tube tonight so I'll wait to see, still have a strong leaning toward COL.
CAL is going for their 3rd straight win, but the first two were against COLUM and CHI(both teams on the second game of B/B).COL is on a B/B also,but they are a much better team than COLUM and CHI, and should be a little pissed after a loss to the OIL.
COL has only lost 2 in the last 18 games(13-2-1-2) and has won the last 4 in CAL.

I found this(from a calgary paper) in regard to your question its not a shure thing but up to now its the best i've found:

Between the Pipes: Look for Fred
Brathwaite to get the start again for
Calgary as the team continues to
throw everything they can at the
goaltender to test his mettle.
Brathwaite has started 13 of the
club's last 15 games. Given that
Patrick Roy lost in Edmonton last
night the Avalanche could come
back with David Aebischer against
Calgary tonight. The Flames have
defeated Aebischer in the team's
last two meetings

Calgary has played Colorado pretty tough.

Games were: COL 3-1 at CAL
COL 3-2 at COL in OT
CAL 3-0 at COL
CAL 5-3 at COL

COL is the better team, but may not play ROY, and is in BB nights. Maybe the way to play this is a UNDER.
