    Default Draisaitl + for Burns

    For the league in my sig.
    A gm put Draisaitl on the block.
    I could offer Burns in exchange but I want to keep a dman.
    He also has Subban, Barrie and Ristolainen on the block.
    I would ask for Draisaitl + Subban vs Burns.
    I have Radulov/Eberle as my 6th keeper right now.
    I would drop them or try to trade them for picks.
    I have hard time evaluating Draisaitl... I find him risky. Should I?
    What's your thoughts on a deal like that?
    Thanks!

    I don't think you'll get both Drai and Subban for Burns. If you can, take it and run.

    Burns is still potent, but is now 32. The chance to score some younger keepers is well worth it for you.

    I like this move for you...

    As for your qeustion about Draisaitl being risky... yes he is risky... if he plays with McDavid he is a point per game player... if he is not on that line he will bee in the 65-70 range.

    So the risk lies with how Edmonton uses him.

    I agree with this.

    I own Draisaitl, and would consider it a win if I traded him for Burns; but I would not do it because of their respective ages. So even if an offer is fair, it does not mean it will get done.

    Burns for Draisaitl + is fair; Burns for Subban + is fair. I don't think the + you are asking for is fair. If you can get it, great!

    I would offer Radulov and Burns for Leon and Subban in a heart beat.

    It's a good time to move Burns. His stats won't plummet, but given his age and San Jose likely being a team on the decline it makes sense to sell high.

    I would bet it's more likely you have to add to Burns to get Draisatl than vice versa.

    I agree I would trade Burns+Radulov for Draisatl+Subban.

    Hell. Add in Eberle too if it gets the deal done.
