Getzlaf for Steen

[iamgloverj]

Hi guys, heres what hes offered me

(HIS) Getzlaf + Vanek

For

(MY) Steen + Palat + Koivu

I dont know. This trade could potentially put me over the top, but can Getzlaf and Vanek offer me something these guys dont already provide? Im in first place and havent lost in 6 weeks, so im hesitant to mess with my working formula.

OMG YES,
Getz>>steen
Vanek <= palat/koivu.

What you lose in Vanek (you may actually not) but Getz makes it up IMO.

I'm willing to bet that this guy is offering this because he's been looking at fantasy playoff schedules.
Ana and Min = terrible schedules
STL and TBL = amazing schedules.

Value-wise you win no question. I guess it depends on when your playoffs run

Clever take. I didn't look at it that way! Rep toy you sir. Still sticking with Getz side but excellent contribution snip show.

Hmmm very interesting, didn't think about this till I looked it up, Anaheim only has 4 games in the final 2 weeks of the season... that's H2H playoff killer...

Classic H2H trade. This is what makes H2H fun.

I'd probably still make the trade. Even with a crappy Playoff schedule, players like Getzlaf can out do in 4 games what Koivu and Palat can do in 8 games.

What about countering with Getzlaf for Steen + Koivu? You keep Palat and avoid the Koivu/Vanek schedule in week 24.

Plus you get to pick someone up with a great playoff schedule. Not sure who would be on your wire in a 20 team league, but teams like Chicago and Colorado play a lot of off nights in week 24, and Columbus is a good team to target for week 25.
