    Do not trade Malkin for this package, especially as you keep 7 skaters only. In a limited keeper league, you want to consolidate talent, not dilute it. Malkin is top 3, worst top 5 skater in your league. Keep him.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    I wouldn't do it.

    He's getting the best player in the deal in Malkin, so I say no.

    I agree with everyone else here, keep Malkin.

    Well, I'd see what you can generate with just Pavelec and Selanne.

    In these types of keepers trading Malkin is a bad idea. You can only keep 7 skaters which makes his status even more valuable.

    Halak may be younger than Backstrom, but his numbers haven't been much better over a full season so it's not like you're getting a major upgrade there for the loss of Malkin. Couture is nice and so is Eriksson, but it's just not worth it as you already have a pretty solid team.

    I wouldn't do it.

    Which means Dobber himself will take a personal grudge towards you and haunt you day and night with that scary beard and dark shades.

    I echo all previous sentiments. Also, if you plan on contending in a couple of years, you need at a start to target a top tier, young Goalie.
    13 team Keeper, top 8F, 4D and 2G count. 1pt G/A, 2pt W/SO.
    Protect up to 500 points in a full season
    (K) denotes keeper

    Keepers:

    F: Draisaitl, Thompson, Thomas, Zuccarello, Konecny, Marchessault Ehlers, O'Reilly, Tarasenko, Perron, Coronato, Seguin, Atkinson, Rossi, Michkov
    D: Q Fox, Sergachev, Dobson, York, Hutson
    G: Vasilevsky, Jarry, Levi

    Just like your Perry deal, this is no good. With 7 Keepers you need to get one superstar or very close plus another star keeper who would bump your worst keeper..... at the very least.

    You also need to remember, his value is at an all time low. He was injured last year, you are new to the league and someone is trying hard to take advantage early.

    Be patient, there is not need to ever trad Malkin in a 7 man keeper, but if you do, be patient - wait for him to light it up - and get a massive return.
