    Default Bennett and Br. Smith are frustrating

    Hey,

    So I've got a contending team in the league in my sig. Bennett and Smith are both eligible for my farm team (<200 games played) for at least the remainder of this year. I'm trying to reduce the amount of young players on my roster that aren't producing for me Smith being the biggest culprit. Should I try to trade them or trade some of my other prospects and move Bennett and Smith to the farm club? Honestly, I'm getting tired of waiting for these guys. Are they worth the wait?

    Thanks

    I owned both and they were taking up spots on my active roster, so I shipped them both out last month.. Bennett is a candidate for the band aid boy hall of fame at a ridiculously early age and smith was only useful to me cause of his cap hit. Happy to see them both go and although I didn't get much in return I have found much better uses for the roster spots.

    If you aren't going to get much in return, then you might as well keep on farm. Wait till Bennett comes back and if he gets a few points then it would be a better time to try and trade.

    Thanks for the advice. I'll keep sending out offers and hope someone bites. Logically I know that Detroit defenseman take a long time to reach their potential but I want to bail on him so bad at this point. Im less frustrated with Bennett since he mostly sits on my IR and doesn't cost me a roster spot.
