Conacher for JVR
Details in my sig. below. What's important is that we are allowed to keep 3 players with below 164 games played. I have a lot of players eligible: Granlund, Schenn, Tarasenko, Brunner, Conacher, Atkinson, and I also have Zibanejad right now because I have two players on IR.
I hoped to use some of them to make packages to improve my core 12 keepers. I am hoping to win this year, and I already have a lot of good LWs, so I'm not sure JvR is a starter on my roster. However, I wanted to ask because if anyone thinks that JvR will drastically out point Conacher, it may still be worth it to make the trade.
Thoughts?
10-team Keeper. Everyone keeps 12 + 1 G + 3 "young keepers" (players with less than 164 NHL games played), and 1G. Points for G (2), A (2), PIM (.2), Hit (.2), Blk (.2) SHP(1), W(4), SO(8) Must dress 4C, 4LW, 4RW, 6D, 2G
C - Crosby, Backstrom, Kuznetsov, Eichel, Johansen
LW - E. Kane, Drouin, Schenn, Miller, Foligno, Zucker
RW - Wheeler, Stone, Lindholm, Oshie, Tolvanen
D - Karlsson, Carlson, Dumba, Nurse, Ceci, Pionk, Larsson, Montour
G - Murray, Quick, Koskinen, Blackwood, Georgiev
Minors - Turcotte, Bouchard, Kaprizov
I wouldn't just do away with JvR for nothing. LW is traditionally a hard position to fill. If you're strong there someone else in your league is weak there. I'd work out a deal with a team that is hurting for a LW and strengthen your team elsewhere.Originally Posted by Achilles
I have Conacher. He's offering me JvR.

Oh, I see. I would pass. I think JvR is more naturally gifted, but I think Conacher's will is on par with JvR's talent. This is not to say JvR is soft. I just like guys who will find a way to score and don't have to rely on their god-given talent which will always fall short unless there is drive to see it through.
In contrast to what I state about talent/will, I think Conacher's talent level is higher than JvR's will to date. Besides any of this, I like Conacher's linemates better. And his dual eligibility in Yahoo leagues's doesn't hurt.
