    Default Huge Trade - Thoughts? E Staal/Nash/Green for Benn/MDZ/Bobrovsky

    Just made a huge trade in my full keeper league. Won the league for the first time this past year and decided to try to infuse some new blood and get a little younger. Just moved Eric Staal, Rick Nash and Mike Green for Jamie Benn, Sergei Bobrovsky and Michael Del Zotto.

    My team is in my signature below. This is a 20 team full keeper league and with some deadbeat owners, it has become difficult to trade. Most of the owners have become blinded by prospects and youth so guys like Staal and Nash (even though still not yet 30 years old) don't have the value that I believe they should.

    So anyway, made the deal and just wondering what some opinions are? I feel that Benn is the BP in the deal and Bob gives me a strong #2 goalie (we only start 1 G each week but having 2 good G's has its benefits). MDZ was a thro in for Green as I have had Green since 2007 and have grown tired of the constant injuries (which create havoc with weekly line-ups).

    Thanks for you thoughts!

    Great trade for both managers. Can't believe you have managers blinded by prospects and youth!! Is Teemu still available in your league??

    Without knowing the scoring cats, not completely sure about who wins the trade, but it appears to be a good trade for you. Yes, you did the get the best player and lost in SOGs. I see Staal's 100 point season as more of an outlier as time goes by. I think he is more of a steady 70 - 75 with an upside of perhaps 80 (max 85). I don't see Nash getting more than 60 in NYR either. So getting Benn as well as Bob as your 2nd goalie is certainly beneficial.

    I think you won the deal handily. Benn is the best forward in the trade, plus you got bobrovsky. Even if MDZ is a drop, i think it's worth it. While yes they're not 'old' per se, the 3 guys you gave up are all on the downside of their careers. You got excellent value.

    Easy win for Benn / Bobvrosky side of this trade. Two best players in the deal go to the same team.
