    Default Should I trade Malkin?

    Hi guys,

    I'm in a keeper pool (pts only), currently sitting in 5/8 (71pts out from 1st - really close to 6/8) and I'm considering offloading Malkin.

    I already have had some requests for him and I'm not sure what is fair asking price.

    The players I was looking/interested in on the other team are the following:

    1st RD pick in 2016 rookie/free agent draft
    2nd RD pick in 2016 rookie/free agent draft
    3rd ...

    Ryan Spooner
    Rich Nash
    Oscar Lindberg
    Jakub Vrana
    Noah Hanifin
    Nikita Zadorov
    Eric Comrie (G) ?
    Matt Hackett (G) ?


    I *might* trade E.M. for 1st RD pick + 2nd RD pick + Spooner + Vrana ?

    I'm still not sure... Malkin is a beast.

    What do you think?

    One for one trade. No chance I offload Malkin. You'd need a combo of those players to get a deal done.imo.

    Ya, thing if its a 1 for 1 trade, it doesn't make much sense for points as he wants more... I on the other hand prefer younger players / picks, but I still want fair value if I'm going to trade him.

    So Malkin for 1st RD pick + 2nd RD pick + Spooner + Vrana is not good enough??

    thanks, and ya LPP are my initials.

    It's not crazy terrible, but you giving up the stud here. He wants Malkin( you've said you had requests). He needs to step up. It's ok to downgrade to get younger, but you need one KEY piece coming back. The first is the key piece imo. Is it the first overall? Then it's closer.
    I'd want a kuznetsov,Gaudreau,stone, etc. Coming back. Obviously a terrible time to try acquire one of these guys, but do you have guys on your radar that he owns.
    I wouldn't trade Malkin without getting a guarantee prospect in return.

    Ya good point, but his team is older so those players are the one I like that I could get. He also has Mikko Rantanen, could ask for Spooler, Rantanen and his 1st RP.

    Since it is an 8 team league, his 1st round pick could be 8th overall, but if he doesn't win, it could also be 6th/7th overall.

    Dunno.

    Draft picks are nice. But you need to get premium young talent back in the deal. None of these prospects are guaranteed. Nash isnt young in a rebuild situation.

    You are correct - Nash is 31, but he is decent quality for 60 pts. Thing is Nash doesn't count in his point total (doesn't have enough), so it won't impact his team.

    I was thinking

    Malkin

    for

    1st RD Pick (would be 8th overall at worst)
    Rick Nash
    Mikko Rantanen
    Ryan Spooner


    Is this worth it?

    I could also pick more picks/prospects instead of Nash... but then it gets riskier.

    Ya, the more I think about it, the more I think it's probably not worth it.
