    Not the league in my signature but a 16 team dynasty league with an identical scoring and roster set up. I've been offered Galchenyuk and Schwartz in exchange for my Tolvanen and Andreas Johnsson and a 3rd round pick (likely in the 33-38 range overall).

    I'm down on both Gally and Schwartz and excited to see what Tolvanen becomes but is this one of those trades you just have to take?

    Thanks in advance!

    Dont see this as anything near a trade you have to take. A mediocre offer, at best. Chucky and Schwartz fail to excite these days.

    I'll go the other way here. I like taking gambles on guys who are down and ready for a bounce back. I've always liked Schwartz and I guess I'm just not so high on Tolvanen's ceiling. Do you get the 3rd as well?

    Good luck!

    If Tolvanen were in almost any other organization I'd be higher on him long term. I just don't see him hitting his ceiling in Nashville, not with Forsberg and Arvi ahead of him for first line spots and the remaining offensive structure being too spread out to encourage high point totals. Maybe this is a post I come back to later and eat my words but right now I'm not seeing it.

    Certainly not crazy but I'd really haffa think about it. Tolvanen is really the guy your gonna end up missing but as per what FrozenInferno says if he wasnt on Nsh hed be a better prospect.

    I'd make the deal myself..

    I would take this deal too ( I made the offer lol) My good buddy serge has a team that can win it all this year and would receive two guys who are definitely not over the hill and into their 30s! He rejected my offer but it's all good. Good luck the rest of the way buddy!

    Galy and Schwartz are both looking for redemption and you should play that up. That being said, Schwartz is a shot machine and is shooting at an abnormally low % (2.6%, I kid you not). His "normal" % should be i the 10/11 range. Galy is just on a team that is poor in scoring ability, overall. Both play quality pp minutes.

    Tolvanen is downswinging and Jonsson is good, but will not crack Toronto's PP much.

    I'd try to make the deal without losing a draft pick, but I make the deal.
