Reply With QuoteI think Giroux and Kessel are awful close in a league like this, and in reality I would probably edge Kessel a little bit with SOG as a cat (even as a minor one). I definitely prefer Benn to Pominville, so to me I would pass.
Giroux + Pominville for Kessel + Benn ??
Hey fellas, not for team in my sig.
scoring is as follows:
G = 1
A = 1
GWG = 1
STP = .5
+/- = .2
SOG = .02
This is a 14 team, keep 4 league, each roster is 8 Fwds, 3 Dmen, 1 Goalie, 2 Bench
Ive been offered the following
Giroux and Pominville
for
Kessel and Benn
My team as of right now is:
F - Kessel, Toews, Parise, Benn, Lucic, Voracek, Wheeler, MacKinnon
D - Byfuglien, OEL, Voynov
G - Lehtonen
Bn - O'Reilly, Vrbata
My initial reaction was no as I want to hang onto Kessel and I do think Benn might finally take that next step this season. On the other hand I love Giroux and own him in every keeper league I am in except this one.
I would love to hear some other opinions please.
Cheers, wc17

Pominville pretty much kills the deal for me. Kessel will at least give you superior goals and sog. I see this almost as a 2 for 1 deal to acquire Giroux. I would stay put.

I think at first glance it might look better than in practice (Giroux's name carries that weight). I would stand pat. Kessel's pretty close to Giroux (with potential for Kessel to outproduce Giroux in the right circumstances), and Benn should be a step up on Pominville.
Kessel and Benn side definitely wind
