    Default Just pulled off a blockbuster

    Sent: Kessel, Vrbata, Gaudreau, Markov, 2nd, 4th

    Received: P Kane, Rielly, Gibson, Nylander, 1st, 3rd

    P Kane to IR.

    Gibson and Nylander sent to farm (can call up Gibson and send him down as he plays).

    Hoffman called up to pro roster. Bailey and Mitchell (H+B and FOW) picked up off FA.

    Thoughts?

    I still believe I'm in the playoff hunt - currently my team has accumulated 33 more assists, 31 more points and 68 more PPP, than any other team - so I felt I could afford to give some of that up.

    I need to catch up in H+B's, FOWs (picked up Mitchell for those) and goaltending stats (enter Gibson).

    Anyways, I posted the offer earlier this afternoon and thought I owed the final result to those who responded!

    Damn! Love this for you. Picks in your favor... Got younger. A lot hinges on prospect development... But I love those prospects and Kane is a stud immediately when he returns negating the loss of Kessel. And Markov? Yeah...give me rielly any day.

    Great move for tomorrow!

    i can see why you did this. But i also see why the other guy did. I think the other guy wins this year by a wide margin. You win long term. Probably a good deal for both teams. I assume the other guy has a decent team if he has so much great youth to trade away and is trading for vets??? Also with it only a 12 team league i think goalies may not be too scarce so maybe you overpaid a bit for Gibson.

    The more i think about this one im not so sure i would have done this, especially since you are in a playoff spot. If i was rebuilding id do this deal in a heartbeat though.

    I wouldn't have done this trade in your position. Go for the win when you have the chance.

    You'll come out ahead in the long-term, but I wouldn't have done this deal... I would've went for the kill this year.

    You don't trade for the future when winning this year is an option. Long term nice work but you gotta go for it when you get the chance.

    Thanks fellows.

    I still think I have a top 4 team for the playoffs.

    And going forward this injection of youth will only make me stronger.

    Cheers!

    Well I was way ahead of the rest of the league in most offensive cats (except H+B's and FOW's - going to pick up a couple players that will help me there now that I have a couple empty spots) before I made this deal... and I was middle of the pack goaltending-wise. Hopefully Gibson gets more starts down the stretch.

    Andersen has been activated from the IR and that will probably limit Gibsons starts. Can you target another goalie?
