    Default trade for Burns or nay?

    so our league allows 10 keepers, 20 teams, all stats (except ATOI)

    mine so far are: Seguin, Stamkos, Bergeron, MacKinnon, E.Kane, Hall, Perry, Letang, Josi, Vasilevskiy

    I got offered Brent Burns for Taylor Hall + Roman Josi should I take this or stick w/ the younger Hall & Josi?, both will be 26 next season while Burns will be 33 and potentially without Jumbo & Marleau, if I do this deal the keeper that would take the open spot would be one of Gallagher, Fabbri, Palmeri, or Lucic

    Tough to give up the youth but I do it. Burns helps you win next year, which should be the goal. Keep some youth with fabbri:

    Burns + Fabbri > Hall + Josi
    Set roster weekly in H2H (Mon to Sun) - 16 Teams - start 6F, 3D, and 1G per week - Keep 2

    Points: 2 G / 2 A / 1 PPG / 1 PPA / 1 Hat Trick / 1 SHG / 1 SHA / 1 GWG - 3 Goalie Win / 2 Goalie Loss in SO or OT / 5 goalie SO

    Forwards:
    C. McDavid, N. Kucherov, R. O'Reilly, J. Schwartz, J. Toews, J. Huberdeau, T. Toffoli, M. Granlund

    Defense:
    B. Burns, J. Klingberg, R. Josi, J. Slavin

    Goalie:
    J. Binnington

    Burns is the most valuable fantasy asset. Who cares if he is 33?

    Agree with Moses - if you can win it the next two years then this is a no brainer IMO
    Experience is the teacher of all things.

    I go against grain and stick with those two because of lack of ATOI, that kind of kills his luster a bit without his TOI. Not to say he is not great because he absolutely is but he will not replace the offense of both of those players and I am far more at ease rostering 26 year olds than a 33 year old who could drop off soon. If you pull the trigger I get it but if you retain your assets I would not hold it against you either. Josi started slow this season but he absolutely erupted after he returned from injury.
