    Default Bulking up for the win

    I have a GM who is having a fire sale and I am considering making an offer. He has three pieces that interest me.

    Perry
    Parise
    Nugent-Hopkins

    If the price is cheap enough...

    1. Who should I be targeting, or how would you rank them?

    2. Would any of them make it into my keepers for next year?

    I wouldn't bother with RNH for this year, and I don't think he has any chance of replacing one of your keepers.

    Parise and Perry are both good options, and could possibly replace one of Getzlaf or Backstrom, so if the price is right I'd pull the trigger one one of those guys.

    We all know how Backstrom can produce when the caps and ovie are going.. but the way things are going now, its hard to imagine that 100 point season he had happening again.. If the price is good, I wouldn't mind having Parise and Perry to help for the push this year, and a case can be made for either of them replacing Backstrom on your keeper list (or as another poster suggested Getzlaf). Either way having too many keepers is a nice problem to have, and I would suggest to trade and upgrade your keepers with some 2 for 1 trades if at all possible

    The price may be Backstrom for one or two of Parise, Perry, or Nuge. I don't think I'd take a one for one deal, but if I can get two of them, is that a win? I normally don't like being on the "Two" side of a two for one deal. It would strengthen my team now, but would that weaken my keeper situation at the end of the year?
