Urgent Help needed!! My Duschene, Backes and Pomminville for Kane and Kaberle

[93Leafs]

1 year league points only. Goals assists 1 point each.

I have Hemsky coming off the I.R. so I need to make room at Right Wing.

I can add Brassard, Jokinen, Stoll or Berglund off the waiver wire.

What do you guys think?

Here is my team:
Crosby
Getzlaf
Duschene
Stepan

S. Kostitsyn
Versteeg
Tanguay
Hall

Pomminville
Semin
Backes
Erat

Martin
Visnovsky
Karlsson
Suban
Gilbert

I.R.
Hemsky

Halak
Ellis

You don't need another center...you need to trade a center for a serious LW option as you're in bad shape LW...RW is suitable enough and C is very deep...Ellis is a bit of a liability but one of those two TB clowns with the amount of offensive supporrt they get should finish the season as at least a mediocre fantasy option but you could def improve there as well...LW though you need alot of help and have plenty of C depth to spare

Thanks for the reply MT. I am not getting a center in return. I am getting Kane who is a rw and Kaberle on D. This trade will allow me to get rid of 2 rw's then I can insert kane and hemsky on the wing. I tried to trade for a top lw already but just can't do it. Offers back are not good.

Please let me know more thoughts.

Yea as it helps balance out your roster adding a strong winger option in Kane at the expense of some of your center depth

[93Leafs]

Does this mean you like the deal?

My team would end up looking like this:

P.S. I am currently in first, 10 points ahead of 2nd.

yea I think Kane is outright better than Duchene and much more valuable to you at RW than Duchene asa #3 center...get someone other than Jokinen though as the add after the deal tho

[93Leafs]

Thanks again MT very helpful.

I can add Brassard, Stoll, J. Bailey or Berglund off the waiver wire.

But I thought Jokinen was on top line now with Iginla? Don't you think he is a better option? If not who is better?

[MT319]

Depends how the lines in Columbus work out with Brassard and Vermette...who ever lines up with Nash will be a solid producer...Jokinen can just as easily be replaced up the middle by Stajan to where he loses alot of value so i'd play the add by ear...I'd look into Fisher as well with Spezza out as he was a very solid option last seasn in these same circumstances
