    Default Am I dumb if I trade Crosby...? WIll rep

    So Im not at all woried about Crosby's performanceso far. Usually I dont hit the panic button if a players is underperforming BUT just the idea of trading Crosby and getting back 2 very good players is tempting me

    You can see my team in the signature. Its a multi-cat league so let's say if I can get Draisaitl and Dustin Brown for Crosby. Is that enough or is that a little too much?


    Draisaitl GP/16 G-5 A-9 PPP-0 PLUS-5 PIM-6 SOG-43 FO-137 HITS-10 BLOCKS-3
    Crosby GP22/ G-6 A-10 PPP-7 MINUS-12 PIM-32 SOG-69 FO-283 HITS-16 BLOCKS-9
    Brown GP/20 G-8 A-11 PPP-6 PLUS-9 PIM-8 SOG-57 FO-9 HITS-60 BLOCKS-6

    note: because of the extra 3 Forward spot guys who take FOs are valuable. Crosby is second in the league only behind O'Rielly
    I can try to trade him for Seguin and O'Rielly. What about that one?

    I one at least one of the players back to be a FO guy.
    Thanks

    Where are the two very good players you're getting back?

    I gave up on Crosby and moved him in my pts league. If you're getting the right price then I would say sure it's a good idea but don't lose value on him just because he is starting the season off a little slow.

    You tell me Give me a combination of two player one to be a center. It will be better if they(or one of them) cover more categories like hits pim etc..

    Personally unless it’s an overpayment I still don’t move Crosby especially as you already mention he is providing you some value without any real hot streak
    Experience is the teacher of all things.

    You want me to come up with a trade proposal without knowing anyone else team in your league?

    yeaa I know Im giving you a hard task but you can make an example or two - Like Kopitar + Maroon. its that enough?
    Scheiffele + Pastrnak/Pachiorety. Schenn or Tavares + Simmonds. And combination of 2 of Pavelski, Trochek, E.Kane, Seguin, O'Reilly.
    ^^^ that's all real combinations on the other teams.

    Bolded the three options I would try.
    Or Drainait plus someone better than Brown.

    If you're moving Crosby, Drai is a decent first piece, but Dustin Brown? Puuuuhlease. This guy was waiver wire fodder to start the year and suddenly he's a good enough piece in a 2-1 Crosby deal?

    Find a better deal or better yet, advertise to your league that you're considering moving Sid. Create a bidding war if possible to drive up the price. Unless someone overpays, don't move Sid.

    Thanks for the advices, guys. I already put Sid on the trading block. BTW why is all the hate for Dustin Brown? I mean the guy is a hitting machine, always has been. In multi-cat league he is valuable with that and also is good for around 200sog, good for PIM too. He has dropped tremendously in goals and assists after that Cup 2012 season but its not like he never produced points. Considering that he is valuable because the peripheral stats
    if he keep producing point he could be a solid top 30-35 player. I know.. its a big IF

    So I will sit and wait for the right offer. I'm not lowering the price just because Crosby is not producing like Sid the KId at the moment.
