A GM wants Rakell. Right now his value isn't the highest, and the offer was originally Rakell+Mrazek (he owns McElhinney) for his Hutton+Ullmark (asked for Ullmark because he'd drop him and FA is thin). Now he wants to add D. Brown and his Palat to the deal.

I got lucky last week and crushed my opponent tying me for 4th place and 15 points ahead of 9th. Is either variation of this deal worth making, or should I wait until closer to February to see how things play out? I'm not too comfortable with my goaltending right now and I think it's only a matter of time before I start to decline. Personally, I like the first deal, but I'm not keen on adding Brown for Palat because of the cost in peripherals (SOG and Hits). Only thing this helps with is alleviating my abundance of RW players and maybe Palat scores more points IF he stays on the top line the entire season.
