    Default Rinne for Kopitar or Duchene?

    I currently own Rinne in the 2nd one-year league listed in my sig. Our trade deadline is in two days and I currently am sitting in first and looking to strengthen. I grabbed Rinne off FA a couple weeks back and he's looked sharp since his return. However, we only start 1 goalie a night and I am more than happy with my tandem of Hiller/Bernier. So I'm looking to move Rinne and the team I have in mind currently has Kuemper/Lehtonen as their two goalies (ouch). With Lehtonen going down, he needs to make a move before playoffs next week. This is his roster:

    Adam Henrique NJ - C
    Antoine Vermette Pho - C,LW
    Johan Franzen Det - LW,RW
    Matt Duchene Col - C,LW
    Andrej Sekera Car - D
    Evgeni Malkin Pit - C,RW
    Anze Kopitar LA - C
    Kyle Okposo NYI - RW
    Blake Wheeler Wpg - RW
    P.A. Parenteau Col - RW

    Obviously Malkin is way too much but I'm thinking he might bite on Kopitar or Duchene since he's loaded at center. Is that asking too much? What would be a decent return on Rinne if he rejects the offer for Kopitar or Duchene? The only other players that are interesting are Wheeler or Okposo, but I'm already set at RW.

    Thoughts?

    I think you are right in that with your other G you can afford to trade Rinne. I would assume that Kopitar or Duchene would be too much, but if you can enter talks and see if that idea flies without pissing him off, then go for it. If that doesn't work, although you say you are set at RW I would suggest Wheeler is an upgrade on Semin right now for sure? If Rinne is basically going to get no starts for you, then it's worth a Wheeler/Okposo in my view.

    Sorry, I should have updated my sig. I dropped Semin a couple weeks back. The sig is now current. I'm thinking of offering him Rinne + Koivu for Duchene and pickup someone like Hemsky, Stempniak, or Bonino to fill the gap. Seems like a win if it goes through.

    I like it. Desperate times call for desperate measures as they say. Take advantage of his situation if you can.

    Trade deadline came and went and I'm still holding Rinne. The owner wasn't willing to deal anyone of value and instead he picked up Bryz for FA. Could be a blessing in disguise as it looks like I'll play him in the 1st round of the playoffs and he's holding Kuemper and Bryz as his goalies while I have Bernier/Hiller/Rinne. Should all but guarantee that I win saves and wins for the week.
