Does the drop off from Talbot to Darling make Shatt worth it?
Darling has put up solid numbers in Chi Town. Was this him, or the team? I really like What Carolina is doing.
Am I lacking the stones to pull this one off? It's a keeper cap league....
For Goalies next year Im sitting on Gibson Talbot Raanta Hellebuyck (I play 3 based on year end stats)
For D next year Im sitting on (I play 6 based on year end stats)
Byfuglien
Chara
Carlson
OEL
Slavin
Savard
Severson
Montour
Bean
Philippe Myers
.....Not the best D corp in the league.
Been offered Shattenkirk (which will help the D for sure) and Darling for Talbot.
I'd love some guidance on this one. Im really torn.

I can see why you're torn. It's a tough one.
I'm a bit skeptical of Talbot's ability to repeat last year -- that was a LOT of games played. I'm not sure you can count on that usage again...at least not confidently.
But Darling has never had the workload he'll get this year.
I don't think I could do it. Not with the other goalies you're counting on -- they aren't safe bets either.
Too much of a gamble. There must be another way to get a Dman.

I think it's a pretty fair deal but I would keep Talbot. I don't hate your D that much tbh
Honestly I'd rather try and pull off Raanta or Helle for Shaty straight up
I'd keep Talbot. The Oilers are the real deal, and while Talbot will probably never play as much as last year, his stats will still be really good on what should be a powerhouse team for several years. Just look at how weak that division is - if he plays 65 games every year, he should still get in the upper 30s in wins every season for the next half decade.
And I agree with Rataylor, your D isn't as bad as you think. OEL should rebound in a big way, Montour will benefit from Lindholm and Vatanen's injury. Carlson will benefit from Shatty's departure. Buff should be really good as usual.
I'd try to sell high on Slavin, though.
GET WELL SOON, DOBBER.
Shatty isn't enough in a one for one swap for Talbot, so I definitely wouldn't also add Darling. Keep what you've got.
