Buy-Low Offer?
I received the following offer and was wondering what people thought of it:
His E. Kane + Tarasenko
for
My Aho, Rakell, and Nyquist
To me, it looks like someone trying to sell low on two guys who aren't really 'going' just yet, for a trio who are. Tarasenko and Kane were drafted in rounds 3 and 4 in this league, whereas Rakell and Aho were drafted in round 5 and 7 (and Nyqvist was a WW pickup). So all of the risk/reward in this would be on me.
Anyway, any thoughts on this one? For details on my league and team, see below.
League details:
The league is roto, 12 GMs, standard Yahoo categories (G, A, PPP, +/-, HIT, SOG, W, SV, GAA). I'm in 2nd right now, with 74 / 96 points, just 2 points out of first.
Team details:
My team is performing well, earning 8 or more points in 7 of 9 categories. My weak points are HIT (2 / 11) and plus/minus (5 / 11). I'm a little banged up with a recent spate of injuries to Duchene, Lehner, Forsberg, and Rakell, so you can ignore a few recent WW pickups I made to plug some holes, but overall my team looks like this:
C: Seguin, Backstrom, Duchene (IR), White, Tierney, Coleman (LW)
LW: Forsberg (IR), Rakell (C, RW), Aho (C, RW), Huberdeau, Nyqvist (RW)
RW: Atkinson, Brown, Dzingel (LW), Coyle (C), Pominville
D: Dumba, Yandle, Gardiner, Suter, Hanafin, Matheson, Oleksiak
G: Hellebuych, Gibson, Greiss, Lehner (IR)
