    Default Mack for Burns Trade

    Was offered Giroux (C,LW) and Burns for my Mackinnon (C) and Letang. Categories are G,A,PPP,SOG,FOW,HITS,BLKS. IM currently in 1st place in our H2H 12 team Yahoo league, but I struggle in PPP a lot and my lead is decreasing with a few weeks left. Im definitely going for the win this year, but also want to be in a decent position next year. We keep 4 players + 2 prospects. Mackinnon would've been one of my keepers next year, but if this deal is made, Id keep Burns and maybe even keep Giroux over Forsberg. Giroux and Burns are both highly rated in our setup so the move is intriguing.

    What are everyones thoughts on this trade ROS and moving into next season? Team in Sig.

    I like the deal short-term, as I think getting Burns for Letang is an upgrade to your D. Conversely, Giroux isn't much of a drop off from MacKinnon.

    Next season, though, I think you're getting quite a bit older. But sometimes you have to sacrifice next season to nail down this season. For that reason, I think I'd do the deal.

    If you're in first is the move really necessary? Letang and mack are no PPP slouches. I'm not certain it's a big enough upgrade this season to sacrifice your keeper youth here. Id want a 3rd upgrade piece to make it significantly more of a win this year before pulling the trigger, you need to outright win this trade this year by a good margin imo. I'm holding as is but wiling to tweak.

    I like giroux but I really like macky. I think letang is just not playing like the letang from the past but being healthy for atleast now. Point is if he was you wouldn't be considering this.

    Can you rework the deal without macky??

    He has offered to do Pastrnak for Radulov. So the full deal would be Giroux + Burns + Pasta for my Mack + Letang + Radulov. Would this be worth it?
