Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.

LW: Nash, Neal, Lucic, Michalek
RW: Horton, Iginla, Hejduk, Williams
D: Pronger, Phaneuf, Karlsson, White, Quincey
G: Lundqvist, Anderson, Halak

His Roster:
C: Kopitar, Roy, Lecavalier, Skinner (RW), P. Kane(RW)
LW: Parise, Zetterberg, Hartnell, Smyth, Gagne,

Thanks again for the help.

I just traded for Nash and Phaneuf for Hartnell and Suter, so I might be biased here. I think Nash and Skinner are a toss up for who will produce more points. Even SOG may be close between those two. It also looks like +/- may be equally as bad for both this year. I think Hartnell will have a solid year, but I don't see him producing at this clip for long. In that case, I would go with the elite (so far) defenseman in Phaneuf. I really like your defense if Pronger stays healthy, and its clear he is trying to upgrade his with this deal. I say stand pat on this one.

I wouldn't take this deal and I don't think it's close.

Skinner is the young sensation and he will be good but he's far from consistently proven. Hartnell is solid but not an elite scorer by any means, his production will slow to his average shortly.

On the other hand Nash is a star and will still finish with 70+ points and Phaneuf is an elite D-man who is once again playing like an elite D-man.

I'm not sure what's worse that you the best player in this deal (Nash) or that you lose an elite D-man in Phaneuf. Eitherway I hate this trade for you.
