Considering a trade

[Gophers]

I've got a trade offer, and I can't tell if it's great, or something else. I've been out of the loop the past two seasons, so I need some advice.

I trade away: Marian Hossa and Jacob Trouba

I trade for: Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Jason Pominville

First time playing in a fantasy league. I'm not sure how to gauge a player's value yet. It's not a keeper league.

Sounds good to me. OEL > Trouba, and Pominville and Hossa had pretty similar stat lines last year.

 

[landy92mack29]

do it

 

[King Mapes]

In a keeper, value is close. But in a one year definite yes. Trouba will be great but not sure if he will be yet

Go for this if you haven't yet

Make the deal. OEL over Trouba forsure.

The trade went through.

Also, in a typical league, do I need 3 goalies? I've got 2 at the moment, but no goalie on the bench. Most guys in the league have 3.

What are your stats, skater and goalie? It helps to evaluate trades and the importance of goalies. Who are your goalies?

Yeah. Generally a good idea to have 3 goalies.

Still depends on the categories on your pool....but overall, that is a sweet trade for you, Hossa and Pominville are similar players, but Pominville has a better line, Trouba is a young prospect with a lot of potential, Ekman-Larsson is a prime asset who has a lot of experience and has made a name for himself.

Here's my team. I got lucky and traded Toews for Crosby (Blackhawks fan). 8 teams.

Who should I drop for a goalie?
I'd say Saad, but I'm hoping he has a good season.

C-Crosby
C-Johansen
LW-Benn
LW-Landeskog
RW-Perry
RW-Pominville
D-Weber
D-Pietrangelo
D-Ekman-Larsson
D-Faulk
G-Crawford
G-Smith
BN-Steen
BN-Nyquist
BN-Saad
BN-Seabrook
