    Easily barkov. Even though couture looks great this season and I like him alot. Barkov gets more ice time than any other forward in the league and he is absolutely top notch. The pick upgrade is gravy.

    I prefer Barkov and the age difference comes into play as well as far as the pick upgrade/downgrade (depending on how you want to look at it) is acceptable. Sucks losing a possible top 3 pick but you are still gaining a 2nd which could still work out for you.

    Thanks for all the advice guys.

    Just a quick update. The guy upped the deal a bit. He offered Hall instead Of Couture.

    What you guys think about it now?

    Barkov, 2nd FOR Hall, 1st

    I'm still going to go with Barkov, as he's about 4 years younger than Hall. I think that Barkov's best season is still ahead, and Hall's best seasons are behind him.

    It makes more sense than couture. You could use a LW keeper more than a center or rw. I prefer barkov but this makes more sense positiobalky for your team. I think Hall still has some great production ahead but his inability to stay healthy is a concern for me. When he's playing and focuses he drives the entire NJ offense. I could see making this deal but I'd see if you can get a small plus.

    If FOW were a category, then I'd say go for it. I don't like the Hall deal with the 1st as much as the other offer. I'd keep Hall and the 1st. You shouldn't need to downgrade on Taylor Hall to trade him.
