    Default Gun shy - My Hall/Boeser or Aho+ for Kane/Bergeron+

    Hi - looking from some input.

    The last place GM looking to upgrade his keepers, while I'm currently in first - Yahoo H2H, 12 teams.

    Asking for Hall and Boeser or Aho and has offered up basically my pick of his team.

    He has Bergeron, Kane, Schneider that I'd be interested in.

    We are a keep up to 4 and I'm set in this regard with cheap Barzal, Rantanen, Aho, Doobs.

    Offer is Hall/Boser/Hutton for Kane/Bergeron/Schneider...I'm hesitant! The $$s on Kane/Bergeron are high so this would be a rental.

    Would this push me though the playoffs or hurt me? Worried Hutton losing starts to Allen, Brock's been solid while Kane's slumped and Bergeron/Hall have been comparable.

    Thoughts?

    Thanks!

    Points only? You aren't keeping Crosby or karlsson? I get there's a budget but that's like 25% of your reasoning when it comes to keeping. Not 100% and if u aren't I'd be selling them for players and picks. If they are all players that you wouldn't be keeping then I'd obviously accept the trade

    You don't need to do this. Why? Well, your in first place so all is good there. Here is how I see your keepers: Crosby and Monahan, very solid. EK on D. Devan Dubnyk. The only guy coming back to you in the deal is Schnieder who arguably is perhaps a slightly better keep option than Dubnyk. That's not enough for me. I'd pass.

    You guys are missing that it's not a salary cap league, it's an auction draft. So he can throw them back, and bid on them again next year. There likely aren't any picks to acquire, unless they have a draft at the tail end of the auction when everybody has enough for single dollar bids for remaining roster spots or something.

    I agree with the type of keepers the OP posted, because of the auction draft nature - star players at fair prices aren't who you keep, you keep guys at a bargain prices. I'd make the deal with Aho in it instead of Boeser. Konecny is close enough to Aho for me to live with him as a 4th keeper; I am admittedly assuming he was super cheap at auction. I prefer Boeser to Aho.

    The rentals are fine, as long as they don't either impact anything related to an in-season cap that you'd exceed an pay a cash penalty for, or would force you to drop other players that help you win.
