    Default Rask for Laine

    League and team details are in my signature.

    My team has been a perennial winner. But I lost a lot of talent due to this summer's depravity and dynasty draft. So what I have left is in my signature. One of the rebuilding teams looks primed to take a shot this year and has offered me Laine for my Rask. I really don't need Rask as I can contend with Anderssen and Price. But I just can't figure what Laine will be for a points only league.

    Do I make this deal?

    I would do that. Laine will be an upgrade on one of the wings, and your 3rd goalie spot can get drafted pretty easily.

    Thanks. The holdout worries me slightly, although I don't think if he signs with the Jets or traded somewhere will make that much difference in his production. I just don't want to trade for a name. In points only format there's no difference in GvsA, so having a guy score 40G/10A is not worth much. I just want to make sure I'm trading for the next OV/Benn/Kessel and not a Yak/Daigle/Stefan.

    Best Case Scenario is that Rask plays in 50 games and wins 30 of them. How much is a 60 point goalie really worth?

    D: Burns, Carlson, Dahlin
    G:

    H2H - Keep 5 + 1R - 10 teams / G, A, Hit, Blocks, PIM, +/-, SOG, PPP, SHP / W, GAA, SV%, SHO / [2ND SEASON]

    This is a good take. Laine has 70 point potential or more; he's 21 years old, and has scored 70, so that's not really debatable.

    Do you think Rask has a lot of potential 30 win seasons left? I say no.
