Coaches ride their goalies for the important match-ups. If anything you see back-ups play on the second day of a back-to-back situation, against a former team, because of injury or poor performance of the starter, or just great career numbers versus a certain team during the middle of the season. This game doesn't have any logic to really implement those instances. Though a few of them should be implemented by now with the advanced systems and stat tracking etc.

I agree with you.. I'm only a couple of games into my BeaGM season and Hiller had started all 3 games for Calgary so far. I start my backup on back to back games for the most part unless it's something like Chicago and LA back to back or I'll start him if my starter had a horrible game. It would be neat if they implemented stiff like, "Elliott isn't feeling well and should sit out the next game".
