Last year, Koskinen started 38 games and Smith 39, so it's a tough call. But they have to pick one.
No matter who you call the starters though, both Edmonton and Vancouver are no good.

Plus I looked into Demko's success against degree of opponent and he really struggled against elite teams.
If I'm a Vancouver fan though I'm looking at the playoffs as a very good sign ... but I agree with you, the sample size of four games is certainly small if 10 games is irrelevant for Bennett.
