    Default Trade off prospect for a chance to win now?

    I've been offered the following deal in my dynasty:

    I get: Okposo, N. Backstrom (goalie)

    I give: Sergei Kostitsyn, Forsberg and my 2nd round draft pick (likely high 2nd round since my goalies have been sucking it up.

    Would you make this move for the proven guys? I'd also have to drop Higgins to make the move.
    15-team keeper (keep 10) - G,A,+/-,PPP, Hits, Blocked Shots, W, SV%, Saves

    Forwards - Kunin, Trenin, Eichel, Bjorkstrand, Boldy, Pastrnak, Boeser, Caufield, Laine, Crosby, Newhook, Konecny, Farabee, Rossi (NA)
    Defenseman - Brodin, Hamilton, Zadorov, Severson, Forsling, Braun, Roy

    I'd pass. I don't like it. No offense, but these aren't the kind of guys that push a team over the top to win it. Okposo hasn't delivered on his promise and Backstrom is on his last legs. I would want more out of my "proven" players. For all of the question marks these "proven" players have, you may as well hold out on the question marks that come with your high picks and higly touted prospects, like Forsberg. At least time is on their side. I can't say that for Ok or Backstrom. No thanks.
