Trade Offer

[Digested Chimichanga Head]

Thinking I'm weak at LW and Defence
How's this look? the other owner only has Price as his goalie. Suggestions appreciated on how to tweek the trade.

His: Downie, Yandle, M. Richards

My: E Johnson, Turris, M. Smith

Can you list the other manager's roster?

Also, could you list and regroup your roster like this, with your best/more likely starters first:
C: 1,2,3
L: 1,2,3
R:
D:
etc.

It makes it easier to view and evaluate.

[Digested Chimichanga Head]

Well how's that horrorfan? I don't know if it makes it any better. I have a lot of players with multi positions. That's the reason why I laid it out my roster how I did. this is a league with 16 owners and only one goalie slot. very slim pickings at goal and he only has Price. anyways, here's his roster.

Center: Jussi Jokinen, Patrick Marleau, Mike Richards

LW: Daniel Sedin, Vinny Prospal

RW: Johan Franzen, Teddy Purcell, Steve Downie

F: Brandon Dubinsky, Martin Erat, James van Riemsdyk

Defence: Dustin Byfuglien, Keith Yandle, Dennis Wideman, Niklas Kronwall

Goalie: Carey Price

Anyone have any input here?

[lucifer316]

i think what he means is that giroux and spezza should be all the way left in your signature

also smith and bryz should be left of backstrom etc

your best players are mixed in with other guys and it makes it difficult to gauge what you have because your best players should be on the left not the right or in the middle

[lucifer316]

i dont think you are getting very much for a goalie sparse league or for a goalie that had a season like he did last season

you are trading smith prior to last season with that value

[Digested Chimichanga Head]

Thanks for the clarity on that Lucifer. Adjustments have been made. Think I should offer a different goalie then? Although he had a great year last year I'm unsure of Smith this year. Should I ask for more then?

has the offer above been proposed and if so by which of you

[Digested Chimichanga Head]

No nothing has been proposed. I am thinking of offering it. So even if it is proposed there is no guarantee it would be accepted. I am purely thinking I should find a LW. Might be a good time to pick up an LA King after their loss. There is very slim pickings in the FA list with 16 owners in this league. Him having just Price at goal might give me a small advantage in trading as well. Maybe I should target another player? Any thoughts on an easy player to target, add, or trade to get?

the problem is that if you offer smith you are kinda showing your ass so to speak

in theory smith should be your best goalie so the fact that you want to move him speaks to how scared you are of what he will do especially if you offer the offer above and he will try to squeeze you

maybe tell him you notice he could use a goalie and ask him if he has any thoughts on yours

let him be the one to ask for smith then you get to set the price not the other way around

if you offer smith he will end up setting the price
