    Default Rookie seeking trade advice

    Fighting a good fight in a head-to-head one year keeper league (3C, 3RW, 3LW, 2G, 2 reserve) but just offered a trade with a major competitor in my league (league leader, actually).

    The offer: Halak, Kessel and Marleau for Anderson, Franzen and Ovechkin.

    I'm leaning toward declining the offer as my current goalie situation, while not ideal, is certainly working (Anderson, Howard and Kiprusoff). I'm also optimistic re: coaching change will kick start Ovie. Any advice would be great!!!


    League details:Point awarded for G (2pts) ,A (1 pt), hits (0.25 pt), PIM (0.2 pts), shootout goad (1pt), short handed pts (1 pt), SOG (0.2 pts), powerplay points (0.5 pts)

    For goalies: W (3 pts), SO (4 pts), overtime or shootout win (-1pt), overtime or shootout loss (1 pt), saves (0.5pt)

    This is tougher than it looks.

    At the very worst Ovechkin and kessel are somewhat equal this year.
    Franzen is really carrying the load on the Wings this year and won't be that far behind Marleau by the end of the season as long as he stays healthy (which is a risk)
    Goalie-wise, it's hard to predict. If halak finally steals his job back from elliott, he is worth much more than Anderson in my opinion, especially with shutouts being worth so much.

    But this all rests on the fact that Ovechkin will be similiar to Kessel this year, which I don't think is true, so I guess keep the "best player"

    I'd decline as well. I would be shocked if Ovechkin didn't out produce Kessel by 15pts over the rest of the season...

    Even if OV and Kessel finish close to the same total, the would mean OV puts up 15 (or so) points more over the rest of the season.

    I'm on the 'decline' side of this as well.
