Price Trade?

[KrayJack]

Ok so I was offered Quick & a 1st for my Price. His first will likely be a top 2 pick. This league though we only keep 5, and is a 14 team H2H. I guess my real question is do you guys see Quick returning to form here soon? I don't watch many LA games and have no clue why he is so bad right now. Not sure I want to move Price at any cost to be honest, but worth asking I think. Thanks

Price and Quick are both elite goalies that warrant a keeper spot. To be honest I'm not sure who I would decide is better, although I might actually pick Quick. He isn't stellar but he is playing pretty well for a cup hangover. Not to mention Mackinnon, Jones, or Drouin might also be worth a keeper spot depending on your team. You might be hesitant to give up Price but in this case [based on the info you provided] I would.

I wouldn't move Price for Quick in a month of Sundays.

Top two pick? I'd be very tempted. I like Price a lot more, but in a 14-team, keep five, that first rounder will be a very good player.

Who do you project to be dropped? Figure out the best few players from that list, and add them to the trade in place of the first pick. So, for example, if it's Bobby Ryan, then you probably have to do that deal, as it would be quick and Ryan for Price.

As of now my keepers are Price, Lundy, Crosby, and then I need to pick 2 from Nash, Letang, and Subban. If I was to take this deal I would for sure keep Quick and maybe just draft who I have to drop. His pick right now would be number 3 for next season, but he is fading pretty fast and could easily become the top pick in the draft. The only thing that bothers me on Quick is that dreadful sv %. I know his norm is way higher so hoping like you said if I do this it's just the cup hangover.

Ryan will be kept the guys team isnt very deep. Players who will be dropped though.
~Pietrangelo
~Nash(more than likely by me)
~Pavelec
~Yandle
~Yak
~Max Pac
~D.Sedin

That's a few I know for sure, in this league D is weighed fairly heavy if you have an elite D-Man. Example would be Yandle has 68.6 points compared to Sedin's 52.8.

So yeah, if you wanted Sedin, the trade works out to sedin and quick for Price. I don't think you can say no.

Appreciate the help. I may have to just pull the trigger, but see if I can't wiggle a little more out of him first.

Side note the points on these players are currently

Price 94.6 and Quick 57.5

Goalies get 4 per w, .7 per save, -1 per loss, extra 2 if they get the SO

you have to be careful with this line of thought

his number of keepers doesnt change so he gets sedin for one season not forever so classifying the trade as sedin and quick for price is not completely correct






if you view the goalies as identical this is a good deal for next year but you do take a hit for the rest of this year to get it

also having the better goalie this season his slide might stop and he could level off or gain a spot or two making the pick worse than you are estimating

it all comes down to whether or not quick and price are viewed as equal

That's a good point. On the flip side, for a second overall pick, there's a better chance of getting someone who is a a keeper for you next year.
