Lehkonen and Miheyev are fairly irrelevant/replaceable. That being said, I would probably rather own DiPietro, so I would counter with UPL for Di and a single asset that actually has some use to you. See if the other owner bites.
Received a trade offer for my Luukkonen in exchange for DiPietro, Lehkonen & Mikheyev
16 team, dynasty league
I see Dipietro ranked higher than Ukko, but the latter just had a really big year...
Sell high? Or hold?
I dont really care about the secondary pieces in the trade... it's really about the two goalies...
Who do I want here? Help?
I honestly have no idea ...

DiPietro is good and all but Demko has future starter written all over him. 4+ years before DiPietro has tandem status at best. Ukko Pekka by a country mile in my opinion.

They are a push for me value wise. Ukko might have an easier path to the net because Demko might be given every opportunity to succeed. EB’s suggestion is spot on per usual. Goalies are just so darn hard to project I usually have other league members marinate them and target them closer to thier nhl arrival.

Yeah, Demko is kind of a concern...
I don't really need either goalies for a couple years however
Lots can change too, as we know... the crease in St. Louis looked blocked by Allen a year or two ago... for example
This isn't the first time this GM has sent me offers for Luukonen... I've got nothing to lose, but to ask for more of a return - which I shall... stay tuned
Issue with goalies is opportunity - who do you think has the better? For me I probably think the Buffalo crease has more question marks than Vancouvers...
Experience is the teacher of all things.
Buffalo can't really wait for Luukkonnen though. Their team will need a real starter before he'll be ready.
My guess is they sign/trade for a starter within the next 2 seasons and Luukkonnen opportunity became as good as Dipietro.
I declined and he changed it to Dipietro with Kurashev and Blueger...
Not sure what to make of this
I mean, sounds like we view the goalie prospects similarly...
Do those add on players swing it?
I'm not really moved to trade UPL unless it's a no brainer ...
I went to watch DiPietro play a few times in the OHL playoffs. And while that's a tiny sample size, I was shocked by how bad he looked. No rebound control. Not covering angles. Giving up weak goals early in a period. He reminded me of Garrett Sparks from a few seasons back. I still don't know what to make of this...

Sounds like goalies this far away are crapshoots anyway...
He said he would "throw in" Tyson Jost
Luukkonen for Dipietro/ Jost
?
Would be an absolute yes for me.
What are his other players? Looks like he really wants him, so might at least try to see how far he is willing to go
