    Default Vatanen for Skinner??

    Skinner a few years ago was on the verge of being really good if not elite. Last year was a train wreck. I'm assuming things get better for him? If he gets traded to Pitt or something I"m sure the deal is off. My defense is deep but not awe inspiring. Love to hear some thoughts. Thanks

    I'm not giving away Vatanen here. Not on a hope that Skinner lands somewhere else. Vatanen is 50 points if he plays 75. Skinner may well need a change of scenery, but don't overpay.

    I'd keep Vatanen. He is your most valuable dman in my opinion and only getting better. With Skinner you are taking on a lot of risk....Injury history, spends to much time on L3 and PP2. Maybe Skinner gets traded but even still comes with risks.

    I would keep Vatanen. I think a 50+ point season is right around the corner for him.

    Too many unknowns with Skinner right now, hold Vatanen

    Agree with the group - keep Vats.

    Agree with you that Skinner is very much worthy of a speculative add via trade. Just don't give up a piece like Vatanen to get him. He should be coming dirt cheap right now and if not, then let that GM take the (substantial) risk.
