In trades like this, I look mostly at the best player in the deal (on both sides) and not the extra pieces.
There aren't many players who I choose over Kucherov, but McDavid is one of them especially as a keeper. Kucherov has only been better than PPG for 2/5 years and that was with Stamkos (arguably the 1 or 2 best sniper in the league) for most of that time.
McDavid has been PPG from day 1 and shows no signs of slowing down. In fact, you can argue that he still hasn't hit his prime. I am not sure I would trade McDavid for anyone in the world in a keeper league.
In a 10 league where we start 3C, 3LW, 3RW, 4D and 2 G daily. It is a H2H league - we keep 3 players (1 G max), are allowed a max of 2 keeps for each player. The number in brackets is the number of keeps I have left:
G, A, +/-, PIMs, PPG, PPA and Shots.
C - Larkin, Couturier, Kopitar, Cirelli
LW - OV, Panarin (1), Schenn (C), Ehlers (RW), Kreider
RW - Kucherov (0), Seguin (C), Palmieri, Voracek, Yamamoto
D - Yandle, DeAngelo
W, GAA, SV% and Saves.
G - Rask, Varlamov, Hart, Mrazek
IR+ - Tarasenko
I have Kucherov and Scheifele and as great as McDavid is, I'm not sure I would be able to pull the trigger, especially in a goal-heavy league.
EDIT: I went a little deeper with some numbers (my league's cats are similar); based on fantasy points per game this is the total for each side:
Wheeler & McDavid = 3.59
Scheifele & Kucherov = 3.8
Pretty damn close.
