Sigh, another Crosby question

[newfcollins]

Points only pool. My team in sig.

I want to make an offer to guy with Crosby. I'm in first place in my pool by about 25 points, which isn't very much in a points pool (one good trade and a good night, and I'm in second).

The guy in fifth has Crosby, and I want to try and get him (along with Moulson, if possible). I know I need to give him one of Malkin or Stamkos, so Malkin it is since he's on the IR.

I know I need to overpay, and I'm willing to do so as getting both will help me win this year, and help me in the future.

Looking at my sig, is there a deal that makes sense for me to Crosby, and possibly Moulson?

I'm thinking Malkin, Hall, Ryan, and two firsts. Thoughts? This would get me about an extra 14 points total right now, plus whatever extra points Crosby would get while Malkin is out.

As an aside, Ryan doesn't count for me, and I may have to drop him at the end of the season for nothing.

Note: Yes, I know last year was the time to try and get him, but we couldn't get a deal done (neither of us were competing, so we both wanted the same thing: doesn't make for good trading partners).

Huge overpayment IMO. If it costs that much I'd pass.

Malkin and getzlaf for Crosby and Moulson is where'd start

I should add (I'll edit my OP as well) that I'll probably lose Ryan at the end of the season anyways, as I have too many forwards to keep, and he's not counting for me.

the difference between Malkin and Crosby isn't necessarily Hall, Ryan, and two 1st round picks; however, given Malkin's recent injury (and not knowing how serious it is), you will have to overpay to even get someone to consider acquiring Malkin while giving up Crosby.

For comparison purposes, I recently acquire Crosby in one of my leagues and I gave up Tavares, Galchenyuk, and two 1st round picks.

Thanks for the responses guys. For the record, this was my offer:

Malkin, Duchene, Miller, Ryan, high second this year and a first rounder (this year or next year, his choice)

for

Crosby, Moulson, Bryz and a third (he chooses what year, what pick)

He turned it down. No counter. He now wants to make a run to finish in the money and needs those players.

Well if he turned that down you aren't going to get a deal done - that's a good offer IMO.
