    Default Adam Larsson Future

    I have an offer on the table (league in my signature) for a future 1st rounder in exchange for Larsson. We're a 14 team dynasty and start 6 Dmen so Larsson is definitely well above the cut off. The pick is for 2019.

    Here's my question: do you see Larsson increasing his point total and becoming a 30-35 guy (or better) with strong peripherals or is he more of a 20 point guy with strong peripherals? As a 30-35 guy in my league he'd be quite valuable but if last year is an indication of his production moving forward, he's not likely to be better than a 4th-5th depth dman in our setup.

    Would love to know what you all think.

    Cheers,

    He seems to be their #1 shutdown D-man and doesn't get any offensive opportunities, so I think him being a 20 point guy is more likely than him getting 30+ regularly. But there's definitely a possibility of that happening if they give him more offensive opportunities.

    I wouldn't bet on him going above 30 more than the odd season where he gets a couple lucky bounces. It's peripheral cats he will hold the most value.

    he won't get ya many points but if you are looking for hits/blocked shots he's a good option, not quite Gudas level but still decent

    Even Dobber is off his bandwagon - that should tell you a lot.

    Think the initial post from JP sums it up - not sure I'd add anything to what he said
