Matthews for 2nd +?
I have the Matthews pick this summer and I'm buying into all the Laine playoffs hype. The guy with #2 has Schwartz and Huberdeau and I'm wondering if it's worth getting one of them from him.
Roto league, cats are FOW, FO%, G, A, PIM(negative), SOG, HIT, BLK
The fact that we have 2, not 1, categories for faceoffs gives Matthews an even bigger value than otherwise. That's 2 out of the 8 skater cats that the wingers won't contribute to at all.
So, 2nd + Huberdeau or 2nd + Schwartz, or should I stop drinking the koolaid and take my future franchise center and run?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Matthews for 2nd +?
Nope, I haven't talked to him about it yet, I'm just considering whether I should toss out an offer. If I can't get one of those 2 guys then he's got nothing else I'm really interested in.
I just took over this team after the previous owner ran it into first-overall-by-a-landslide territory and ditched, and don't really know the other owners yet so no idea how likely it is that he'll accept.

Re: Matthews for 2nd +?
If you could squeeze a Huberdeau or Schwartz and Laine for Matthews I would make that deal in a heartbeat. A lot of what I've heard is that these two guys are neck and neck and Matthews is getting the edge because he's the C.
Also there is the possibility that with the world championships coming up in a few weeks that perspective on these two could change. Laine could jump ahead of Matthews, if he has a great tournament and you could get screwed.

Re: Matthews for 2nd +?
What does the rest of your lineup look like? Who do you have for centers to help you with those two categories and what centers does the guy with the #2 pick have? Why aren't you looking at trading down, say even to #3 and pick up a good center with the pick swap? Any of those top three guys are going to be awesome.

Re: Matthews for 2nd +?
Ok, that was my thinking. I doubt he accepts the deal. My fear was that if you sent that offer, he would counter with the 2nd and a lower tier player (as opposed to Hubs or Schwartz) and then you would have to work around that.Originally Posted by Lekkric
If you are interested in moving Matthews for that number 2 pick, I suggest you send out an email saying that you are willing to move the pick if the price is right but that you want a top pick and a top player in a return. Let that manager send you the offer and then you set the bar and go from there. You may also end up getting an offer for the number 3 pick and a better player than Huberdeau or Schwartz in return so you would have that to consider as well...
You may also end up getting ridculous offers and just keeping Matthews which is not a bad thing at all IMO.

Re: Matthews for 2nd +?
Shop it for sure, but I'm still feeling the need to hang on to Matthews and let the Finish hype just pass on bye.
