Kucherov + vs Panarin +

[cheese_cake]

First things first, I wanna thank the community for chiming in a lot on threads that I created. I really appreciate it.

I've received an offer in the 2nd league in sig (almost pts only.) :
My Kucherov, OEL and 5th OA.
for
his Panarin, E. Lindhom, A. Svechnikov and 16th OA

My plan was to pick someone like Gusev with my pick because he has rookie eligibility until next year. In 16th I can expect to pick someone like Labanc, Miller, a third G or maybe a good def if any are left.

I'm pretty set on declining the offer but I would really like to acquire Svechnikov. The other GM also has Gaudreau and I was wondering if replacing Panarin with Gaudreau would make it worth it. Or replacing Kuch with Tavares (though he is no Kuch himself).

Any input is appreciated and I'll rep if possible.

Thanks!

I would pass on both. Kuch beats any other player you mentioned and the other pieces don't make up the difference, especially in a limited keeper. Don't get distracted by Svechnikov so much you deal Kuch away for a big loss, and the same goes for Tavares.

If you really want Svech then I would scrap what is on the table and come back with a completely different approach.

I would stay put

Thanks
Then would offering the 5th OA straight up be too much?

Guessing his main interest is Kucherov.
If that's the case what if you just offered him for Panarin&Svech?
That way you retain your #5 and a good dman in OEL.
I'd be interested to hear if that's not enough coming back your way?

That's not a terrible idea. However I do think that I would keep Kucherov. Panarin has some question marks (although I think he will be fine) and Svechnikov may still be a few years away in a points only.
Kuch will inevitably be tops for a few more years still.

If you could get Gaudreau and Svechnikov and a pick, maybe it would entice me but i need much more than your original offer.

Yeah right now the talks have evolved around Tavares, Meier, OEL for Panarin, E. Lindholm and Svech.
Meier would definitely be hard to let go and he is comparable to Svech from what I project, so right now I am leaning on declining the offer and moving on.
