Finally traded Scheifele, yr opinion on the trade + other offers.

[hockeycentresud]

7-keeper pts league

After seeing Scheifele get injured and being in a very close 4-way race for first place, I finally got settled on this deal with the club sitting in 9th out of 10:

Scheifele IR /Weber IR / Phaneuf
vs.
Burns / Green / Toffoli

I figure Burns holds as much, if not more value than Scheifele -- at least within this league.
As it is, I've been testing the waters of trading Burns and have received these two offers; on which I'd like to have your opinion.

First proposition comes from a good friend, sitting on top of me in 2nd place:

Burns, Coyle, 4th round, 5th round
vs.
Kessel, Doughty, 1st round, 2nd round

the 2nd propostion comes from the last place club and goes:

Burns, Koivu, Silverberg
vs.
Getzlaf/Barkov, Barzal, some D

I would take the Kessel deal immediately,

I'm in a similar league, 10 teams and 6 keepers. Pickings get slim in a hurry. Heck in my league we aren't even allowed to trade a first. That bump up with an extra first and second will come in handy. Kessel is having a great season ,so is Doughty. That would be my take.

The Barzal option is intriguing, but without knowing your current d corps or the d coming back, I wouldn't presume to say take it.
