Swapping Centers

[klawz90]

So I was offered Henrik in return for Backstrom. It's a pts only league. I Know Backstrom will turn it around but from this point on who will score more points? The Sedins look like their old selves again.

Points only, no way I trade Nick Backstrom for Hank Sedin.

I think Sedin bounces back this year, but I don't see him out producing Backstrom this year, or too many more down the road for that matter.

Keep Backstrom.

Another vote for Backstrom. The other manager is trying a little buy low, sell high. Keep mind that Sedin's totals aren't that much better on a per game - 12 points in 10 games vs 7 points in 8 games for Backstrom. He's using that slightly inflated number to make it more tempting but I would hold Backstrom as I could see them swap their production rates quite easily. One big game for Backstrom and he's right there.

Sedins bouncing back is one thing. Backstrom is another (better) thing. Don't do the trade.

[Rehdaun]

Keep backstrom.

Sedin for me, going to get good starts.
Trots going to move Backs around and play better defensively.

Ya I'm just worried that Backstrom is going to be used in a more defensive role because of how complete his game is. I'll wait another week or so before making such a big move.
