I like it Malkin is a top 5 asset and you need to pay the price but I certainly don't think you overpaid if anything you underpaid and Dougie was a nice throw in as well.
I'm a young team that's 1 year old in a 16 year old keeper...I've been keeping my head over water but I decided to make a trade that will make me a contender sooner rather then later.
I traded
E.Kane
Landeskog
Girgensons
Kindl
Jack Campbell
2015 3rd
2016 1st belonging to a perennial contender
2017 1st belonging to me who by that time I hope will be a perennial contender
for
Gino Malkin
Dougie Hamilton
Michael Neurvirth (I needed to expose a goalie at the end of the year, rule in this league)
2015 5th.
Lots of assets to pay but at the end of the day I got Gino Malkin. Dougie Hamilton is a keeper for me as well and might be worth more then Landeskog or Kane by the end of the year if he keeps up his play. What do you guys think?

I really like this for you. Like Canucks_fan18 said, you paid to get a top asset in the league but you absolutely did not overpay.
Girgensons/Kane/Landeskog are nice players but they're more valuable in multi-cat leagues and less so in mostly points league. The PIM's does boost their value a little but not enough to say that you overpaid IMO.
Plus you now have Ovechkin/Malkin as your top 2 keepers, and a nice core of Malkin/Ovie/OEL/Pietrangelo/Bob moving forward with a bunch of young guys beind them with signficant potential.
This is a very good deal for you. And frankly I love that you got Hamilton. Sweet add.
2017 is a great year to give up a first in. You'll definitely be competitive by then, so no worries. 2016 first from someone else is a great trade chip so good job on using that. And not giving up your first this year is sweet (assuming you still have it). If you don't compete this year, you'll likely get a player who will be ready when you're hoping to compete.
I like this deal.

Honestly just getting Malkin for that would be a good return I think. Everyting else is just gravy. Nice work!
Thanks guys, made me feel good about pulling the trigger. Looks like I have no choice but to go for it next year.
