PLEASE HELP - Doughty or Yandle with 2nd for A.Pietrangelo

[L2TG]

I'm currently in a roto style (11 team) keepers league. We keep 4 every year and this year I am the "team to beat". I loaded up on draft picks for this year but so far its been kind of rocky. I was wondering what you guys thought of this trade:

MY Doughty + 2nd or Yandle + 2nd for A.Pietrangelo.

I don't know who to let go of.. Yandle isn't the man anymore as OEL has taken ice time especially on PP away from him. But Doughty looks atrocious and his -10 is sinking me. I feel Pietrangelo is a pretty decent upgrade on any of these 2 but does it warrant a 2nd round pick? Would you do this trade, and who to let go?


League Settings: G,A,P,+/-,PIM,PPG,PPP,SHP,W,SV%,SHO,GAA.

My team:

C. Crosby (K)
C. Backstrom (K)
RW. Kane (K)
RW. Hossa
LW. Kunitz
LW. Benn
D. Letang (K)
D. Doughty
D. Yandle
D. Boyle
BN. Brown
BN. Moulson
BN. Voracek
IR. Hartnell

G. Schneider
G. Halak
BN. Bryzgalov

personally i dont see how you get traction with either of those offers

unless he has karlsson i dont see how he trades AP in a keep 4 personally

[L2TG]

Are you trying to say that it's worth the upgrade for me? He has Karlsson as a keeper already.

[lucifer316]

if you think this puts you over the top for this season it is certainly worth thinking about although a 2nd in a keep 4 leaves you kinda vulnerable next year i would think that you might be able to get a pick back for either letang or AP once the season finishes up before people solidify their keepers

or one of them plus backstrom might get you a better forward or high end goalie keeper

only you know if you are a serious contender and what you might be able to move guys for once the season wraps up

[L2TG]

In your opinion

Doughty or Yandle -> Pietrangelo

Is that upgrade substantial by end of the season? And if so who would you rather get rid of Yandle or Doughty?

Furthermore, the offer has been adjusted to 2nd for A.Pietrangelo.. I can potentially roll with 5 Dmen or send Doughty + Yandle for S.Weber to another owner?? Thoughts?

[lucifer316]

its tough to tell how substantial the upgrade would be however it is a clear upgrade over either player

as for doughty and yandle for weber i wouldnt do that personally

unless weber wakes up in a big way you likely break even on the player end however spend a pick for what could amount to a lateral move

I would HAPPILY part ways with Yandle + 2nd for Pietrangelo!!!!

Who do you prefer Yandle or Doughty?

Yandle = Reduced role because of OEM and has declined for past 3 seasons.
Doughty = Gets all the time and has big role, but is -10 and has also scary trend of decline over past 3 seasons.

I'm undecided on this. Im gonna pull the trigger on 2nd for A.Pie.

given your keeper setup this is a one year decision not a keeper decision so i would want to hold yandle and trade doughty
