    Default Gagner/Tlutsy for my Hossa/Statsny?

    I look at this offer and think it's a classic sell low and buy high for me. But I am the defending champion in a 16-team H2H weekly matchups with multi-cat pts scoring (including FOW so centerman are worth more). No positional differences for forwards. We start 6-F, 4-D, and 1-G daily. Here's my team:

    F - Getzlaf, Kessel, Hartnell, B. Richards, Hossa, Statsny, M. Richards, Elias, Grabovski, Dupuis
    D - Chara, Boyle, Phaneuf, Wideman, Visnovsky, Irwin
    G - Kipper, Brodeur

    Farm: Teravainan, Rattie, Lindholm, Despres, Brodin, Maatta, Kostka, Lindback, Fasth, Scrivens

    These are the pts for the players involved:

    Hossa = 157pts in 28gms
    Statsny = 133pts in 29gms

    Gagner = 195pts in 29gms
    Tlutsy = 149pts in 29gms

    I'm going for a repeat title so acquiring the red hot players is appealing but this is a full dynasty and I'm not convinced that these two players (who were picked up on waivers this year - maybe not Gagner, can't remember) are better keepers...

    Thougths?

    I've been saying Stastny will bounce back for 2 years. I am having trouble convincing myself anymore.

    As for Hossa, I think he's still solid (own him too!) but he is getting injured more and more often. If I were chasing the win, this deal would really intrigue me. I also think it's a decent gamble going forward. Both Gagner and Tlusty were top 15 picks in their draft years, so there's reason to think they're more late-bloomers than flashes in the pan.

    Do you keep all? Any cap in this league?

    I keep all, no cap.

    I'm hung up on moving Tlutsy for my Statsny. I, like you, think Statsny will bounce back...but it's lookign liek he's not a good fit in COL. With FOW though he's pretty close in value to Tlutsy even though Tlutsy is playing lights out and Stats well sucks...but their pts difference isnt' that much because he gets FOW and Tlutsy doesn't offer much more in terms of other cats.

    I'm talking with the other GM and I"ve proposed this.

    My Hossa/Teravainan/Brodin for his Gagner/MDZ

    I think this is a nice move for both sides.

    Honestly, in the future will probably lose, though I am done waiting for Stasny to bounce back.

    Either way though, if you have a chance to go for it, you go for it all. Tlusty and Gagner have both been lights out so far, and being that it's a short season, there's no reason they shouldn't keep it going for the last 20 games.
