    Default Crosby for mcdavid

    I?ve been offered Crosby ($8.7m)for my McDavid ($12.5m, next year) in a salary cap league that uses players AAV (which will be a 4 m $ difference).

    Hesitant to pull the trigger on this, but see the potential benefit of Crosby?s lower cap hit starting next season, and for the foreseeable future, as well as similar production.

    Looking for some feedback! Am I nuts to take this or pass it up?

    The logic for taking Crosby, is that it will help me pay for kucherov?s and other players inevitable raises while keeping solid production. Obviously mcdavid is in the early stages of his prime.

    Thanks for the help!!!

    Current roster. Keep 14.

    It should be similar production for the next three years, so I would take the deal, especially since Kucherov's extension will be between McDavid and Crosby money.

    Crosby should be in the 80s for points over the next few seasons. McDavid will likely be in the 90s and possibly low 100s. That isn't worth an extra $4 million when you have both Seguin and Kucherov up next summer.

    Agree with everyone... having the most expensive player often isn't a good idea in a cap league. Often spreading your money out more evenly is the key. And you know Kucherov is going to get paid.
