Take the deal, that seems like highway robbery to me.
Hey Guys,
In my signature salary cap league, I am being offered Larkin (6.1M) for my RyJo (8M) and my Strome (0.863M).
I think I overpay this deal even though I have too many keepers.
What do you think?
Thanks !

Other guy must be super high on Strome. I mean, even if he has another really good year with chicago you're still getting the best player. And in a limited keeper the best player almost always wins the trade so I do like it. The cap savings is a bonus especially as it appears you are right against the cap.
Plus Larkin in a cap league has additional value. His deal is already a steal and should only look better over the next few years.
It's a nice way out of ryjo's 8 mil per year. The way I see it is even if strome really pans out it's a fairly even trade. If he doesn't you win this one by a good margin. Top end talent in a limited keeper is key and Larkin is exactly that.

Mash accept. Larkin is sooooooo good. Until Strome was traded, he was pretty much forgotten about and needs to prove he can produce somewhere near where he did last year.

if guys like jvr , lee , pavelski are routinely exposed in your leagues draft then I'd imagine upgrading to larkin via ryjo / d strome would almost be like trading d strome for larkin stright up since ryjo might be someone you'd potentially expose anyways + the added benefit of clearing a bit of cap room
otherwise known as upgrading your keepers
Great deal for you, gus_rocket.
Also, love the avatar. Cyril Sneer, and the Raccoons in general, is an all-time favorite show of mine. Grew up watching it. It is hard to find Raccoon's memorabilia, but I buy/collect as much of it as I can.

Thank you all for your help !
I am also considering the two following trades:
- MY RyJo+Pavelski+JVR for HIS Landeskog; and
- MY RyJo+JVR for HIS Zibanejab
How would you rank these three possible trades (for Larkin, Landeskog OR Zibanejad) I am considering, from the best one to the worst one?
Thanks again !!!

I actually like the Larkin trade the least of the three, but they're all good options. I'd probably prefer the Landeskog trade, then Zibanejad and Larkin. Mostly just due to cost, as you would only be giving up one keeper option to acquire Landeskog or Zibanejad. Keeping Strome is a nice bonus.

I agree with MounD on keeping Strome and going for one of the other two.
I like Zibs better because of the extra year on his contract, but he is also a C and you seem set there. Depends on how comfortable you are with each pro/con.
