Looking Out For #1

Paul Maurice has let his decision be known: Andrew Raycroft will start tonight against the Senators - insert bomb dropping sound here.

In all fairness, Raycroft was the better goaltender during the pre-season, and it's never a bad idea to go with the goaltender who's playing the best. Hopefully Andy can provide some stability between the pipes that hasn't been there against Ottawa for some time.

Maurice continues to be tight-lipped about which goaltender will play tomorrow night in game #2. I imagine it'll depend on how Raycroft plays tonight. Play well (and win) and there is no sense in resting him. If history repeats itself, we'll see Vesa Toskala tomorrow night.
