    Default Points only - Duchene vs Ryan/Yak

    I have a feeling this is going to be an easy choice for the Duchene side, but in a keep 6, points-only league (g=1, a=1) would you trade away Bobby Ryan & Yakupov for Duchene?

    Duchene is the clear-cut upgrade keeper.

    Duchene by a mile

    in small leagues like this one, you always want to upgrade your single keeper spots

    hell, I'd argue that in a league with only 60 keepers total, Ryan might not even be a keeper. Yakupov definitely isn't.

    I would do this trade. Duchene is an upgrade for your current keepers.

    Unless Ryan/Yak can get you something better than Duchene, yes!

    Yes if Duchene replaces Ryan as a keeper then it is definitely an upgrade. You would not be keeping Yak anyways, by the looks of your sig, so really it is Ryan for Duchene which I would do every day of the week.

    Easy yes!

    I'm wondering about the other manager - is he really offering up Duchene for those two? Or are you proposing?

    Will this be the first time in fantasy league history when a GM gets down on one knee and opens a box with pictures of Ryan and Yak inside, and pops the question:

    "Will you accept these two for Matt Duchene??"

    No need to deviate here. Upgrading from Ryan (very good) and Yak (who the hell knows) to Duchene (bordering on near elite talent)...

    Yes...YOU DO THIS. means you're consolodate your keepers (ALWAYS a good thing) and take a flyer on someone who is likely to out produce Yak in your format (or even a nice little RIsk/Reward pick ... enter Drouin)
