Shipachyov value

[ledrew]

I'm in a 20 team, deep league with full keepers. I'm in a full rebuild so I would want to deal shipachyov. What would be realistic return for him?

First off, what are your categories?
Secondly, are you starting to turn your rebuild around, or do you have in mind that you're just going to sell him for picks?

[ledrew]

Categories are G, A, Pts, hits, ppp, shp.
I would prefer prospects from past couple of years over picks at this point.

Too broad a question IMO - truth is with him is whatever someone will pay as there is no bench mark... You need someone who believes the hype to extract full value and that is hard to gauge right now

Broad for sure. I just can't believe the differences across my different leagues. Some people view being on an expansion team as a terrible thing. Personally, I think it's great that he will have top minutes at 5on5 and on the PP. Just wondering if he's getting much value in other leagues.

With unknown guys on expansion teams, their value could spike or plummet quickly. Be prepared to sell high or buy low.

For what it's worth, I'm in multiple multi-cat H2H dynasty cap-leagues with the same setup and he's been going between 10-12 overall in the amateur drafts (basically made up of 2017 draftees and the odd older player).

First I'd try getting Keller or D.Strome with him. If that doesn't work, I'd try getting someone like Glass or Suzuki instead. Or maybe a guy like Sam Steel if he's easier to acquire. Shipachyov should have that kind of value IMO.

I think that a sell high at this point would be grabbing promising young forwards : Keller, Strome (upside), Aho, Reinhart (current production + future upside) are all potential good returns imo. Fabbri, Larkin and that kind of prospect I would find insufficient.

Trying to provide guidelines, just my grain of salt
