There's an issue with this forum and I want to address it.

I agree. Last year I was so proud to have tolvanen, kaprizov, borgstrom, mittlestadt, debrincat while a friend of mine was trading for horqvist, e kane or perry. He won. I realize that our league is not deep enough to keep those talents. I'm lucky that there`s still patient people in my league so I can get a bit older with old guys like skinner, palmeiri and kuznetsov

But I'm all in with bondon and I disagree with your way to espress yourself.

I would very likely trade my McDavid for Pettersen and a high 1st... in my cap league.
There's tonnes of value in those 3 seasons of control at 925k vs 12.5mil.

Cap leagues make things interesting like that. All though I think that’s an overvaluation of the 1st round pick. I’d prefer to know what I’m getting if I moved McD. I’d take the draft pick as a third or fourth piece but probably nothing more.

I agree with your basic concept Jyeatbvg. I have echoed the same sentiments many times on these boards. I love my vets for a myriad of reasons, most of which people have already touched on, so I won't repeat them.

I also agree with the majority here that the tone of your post came across as abrasive and condescending. There was no need for this. No need to cap shout your demands. No need to tell people how to think and what to think. Simply present your thoughts in a respectful fashion and allow the discussion to evolve.

Welcome to the forums. I hope you get as much value from them as the rest of us do.

I get the point being made but gm's try to aquire prospects in exchange for established players for a variety of reasons .

I love that all this hype happens, that's how I got Meier, Lindholm, Domi, etc practically free ..

I also got Burns for Pietrangelo last year after his slow start.. LOVE EMOTIONS!! I'll bank on them all day
