    Default Value of McDavid in a points-only keeper league

    I'm the proud owner of one Connor McDavid, and obviously don't want to trade him. However, the other guy REALLY wants him and just offered me Crosby, Kessel, Drouin and a 1st round pick for McDavid and a 2nd round pick. Am I a fool to say no? I really don't want to trade him but these offers are getting hard to refuse... would you take it?

    I would take it. It's a lot better than the offers I've got for McDavid in a 15 team 19 player keeper. The last offer was Kadri, Desharnais, Yakupov for McDavid, Drouin, Nylander lol. I think its too good of an offer to say no but I wouldn't hold it against ya if you said no. Some players we would just rather have on our team and I understand if that guy is McDavid for you.

    I know McDavid is great and all, but come on man, that's got to be a yes right there. Do you guys remember when Ovechkin wasn't seen as an elite player any more because of his two down years? Similar to Ove, the Pens are coached by an offense-stifling idiot.

    To me it depends on who you will be dropping AND if the players you get in return become better keepers than what you have. How will this trade look after it's done regarding keepers. Maybe post a before and after to better gauge the end result. I probably would keep McDavid over Crosby for example, just based on age...but how about the other players involved?

    That's a serious haul for McDavid, and considering every piece he offered is a keeper I would be inclined to say take the deal

    I have always said it would take an offer I couldn't refuse before I'd move McDavid and I think this may be one of those offers. Wow!

    As much as I'd hate to trade McDavid, I don't know how you can refuse that offer.

    Alright, thanks folks! I messaged the potential trade partner "ARE YOU CRAZY??" and he rescinded his offer. It's probably for the best anyway cuz I'm one of the co-commissioners of our league and feel a responsibility to encourage a moreless equal balance of power. If the trade went through I would have three top-5 players which probably wouldnt be too good for league morale.

    Wow I like the way you think. I wish more people thought like you. You have a great team already and some very good players in your farm.
