Upgrading Defense: Subban, Josi, Buff, and more
Looking ahead to Barkov's return as it takes a long time in my league to get deals done. I'll need to free up a F spot and I'm not really buying CBJ keeping it up for the year, so I wanna sell high on Atkinson.
Looking to package Atkinson + Yandle for an upgrade on D. I was considering buying low on Subban or Josi but both are struggling and are now injured. Are the Preds a risk in general? To be honest I can't see them stringing together wins this season. Correct me if you've got reason to believe otherwise.
So options for D upgrade are one of the Preds duo, or I could toss an offer to the Weber or Buff owners just to see what they think. It's a long shot. What do you guys think? Are any of these reasonable trades and am I leaving a target out?
Thanks for any input
