I would make that deal in a heartbeat!!
I'm addicted... I just can't stop!
The Benn owner has Pronger and just took a big hit. I think I could swing a one for on Carlson for Benn. What do you think?

League has been running continuously since 1997-98
Pronger hasn't been playing for over a month. If he's made it this long without him he probably won't trade a young star like Benn for Carslon. Carlson is good don't get me wrong, but he would have to be desperate and/or stupid to do it straight up.
If you can make it happen kudos to you though!
Furthermore, Carslon is the only D you have that is actually producing to expected standards.
I still have lots of faith in Doughty, Rundbald, Carlson, Myers and Larsson but all except Carlson are underacheiving. Larsson and Rundblad are a still a year or 2 away from making a significant fantasy impact IMO.

That's kind of what I'm planning for, two years from now. I'm actually considering dropping Myers for Elliot if I can get him at our up coming re-draft. The big difference is I would go from protecting 2G 5F and 5D to 6F and 4D. Then I plan on using my draft picks to snap up both Russians next fall.
So no chance to grab a D until the 2nd round!
I don't know if I should just stick with 5 and 5 or try to get Benn?
I think the other team might go for it because his D is in tough and he has 20pt forwards that are not currently counting for his team. The loss of Benn this year would not hurt very much at all. He's in 2nd place as I type.
