    What's the most lopsided trade you've ever made? It can either be lopsided in your favor or against

    Wow, that's a pretty awesome return for Skinner. How did it start? Like the Josi owner come up to you with that offer

    I once traded Wayne Gretzky for Paul Laus. I needed penalty minutes in a bad way and could afford to give up points. I think it was the Great One's second or third last season in the league. On the surface, an ugly trade, but I gained (net) a shit ton of points.

    We're in a keep 27. He expressed an interest in obtaining either Skinner or Ennis from me. My preference at that time was not to give up on Skinner yet, so I made what I thought was a reasonable offer in which I'd give up Ennis, and a ridiculous offer in which I'd give up Skinner, thinking that the obvious no in giving up Josi would lead him to accepting the Ennis deal. Instead he replied with, "I think I'll take the Josi deal", and then I fell off my chair.

    I once got Stamkos (After his dissapointing rookie year) for Craig Anderson, Olli Jokinen and a 1st and 2nd rounder.

    I reaped the rewards of that for a few years (3 Championships)

    2 years ago, I traded Brian Elliott and PA Parenteau for Henrik Lundqvist, the ultimate buy-low when the Rangers struggled at the start of the season.

    Wow, I'm surprised someone would give up on Hank to the point where they'd trade him for Elliot and PA

    In a one-year multi-cat I was offered Rick Nash and Shea Weber for Torey Krug and David Krejci - last year about a week before Krejci's injury problems started. The guy basically gave me the keys to win the pool.

    That first trade doesn't sound to great but the second one worked out great for you

    Patrick Kane for Dougie Hamilton in 2012/13 season. I still remember the feeling of thinking it was wrong to hit Accept. That feeling didn't last very long.

    So this year I felt like giving back and in the off-season I traded Kane for Nash, Perron and Marner.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.
