    Default Trading Giroux?

    Hello everyone

    Dynasty keeper league - 12 TEAMS
    Piont's only (5G, 3A, 0.2 for PIM, 1 PPG/SHG bonus - 5W, 0.2 save, -1 GA, 5Shutout)
    Head to head for 1 week at a time
    Keep 10 / Start 10 (5F, 3D, 1G)/ 10 on the bench

    Current team -

    Malkin, Tavares, Benn, Gaudreau, Kuznetsov, Giroux
    Werenski, PK Subban, Carlson
    Murray

    Bench
    Schwartz, Connor
    Theodore , Dumba
    Crawford, Vasilevskiy, Hellebuyck, Smith

    I have been offered a 1st overall pick or 1rd (7th Overall) and 3rd pick for Giroux

    Getting rid of him would be nice so I could keep another player

    Buuuuuuut is Giroux still that good ? Is he that much better than one of my bench guys and an early pick in this format? Only keep 10

    Some Players available in draft that I could get ........
    - I currently have the 2nd Overall pick (lottery pending)

    Hischier, Patrick, Keller, Strome, McAvoy, Kovalchuk, Shipachev.... Am I missing anyone??

    Who would you draft??
    To trade or not to trade????

    Thanks

    How many teams are in your league?

    I'd be tempted to take the deal and keep either Crawford/Vas over Giroux.

    But depending on the number of teams, looks like there's some talent in your re-draft and perhaps a few good goalies.

    I would assume you would keep Schwartz in place of Giroux, or Crawford and just have a monster G tandem in a start 1.

    Which would make this almost Schwartz + Keller/Hischer/Strome/Patrick for Giroux. I would do it for the 1st overall, but I'm notoriously low on Giroux.

    I see a declining star, while others still love him.

    Giroux loses a lot of value in a goal heavy league, especially when it only counts PPG instead of PPP.... I think I like this deal for you. Hischier, Keller, Strome, or Patrick is a solid return for a player in a major decline.

    Better something for nothing - I like Giroux but the possibility of one overall AND keeping Crawford or Vas and really locking up your goalie starts in a start 1 would appeal
    Experience is the teacher of all things.

    I am a firm believer that Giroux should somewhat rebound but nevertheless like the trade for you.
