Spinning my Wheeler - another Wheeler trade thread

[Melloj]

I am suffering in my H2H league with G, A and +/-. I've made some trades for players like Tavares and Hedman and Rask, but it seems to have set off a hornet's nest and the guy going for it has traded his 2/3 top picks and is now rocking, Ovi, Pasta, Matthews, Panarin and E. Kane, so pretty unstoppable.

I don't want to completely mortgage my future, but want to at least hit top 3 (i.e. money spots).

What do you guys think about this:

A: Wheeler, Grubauer, Dumba
B: Svechnikov, M. Jones, Giordano

Wheels Keeper cost next year = 4th round pick
Svech keeper cost next year = 6th round pick

I don't think I can get Svech for Wheels straight up, and the Svech owner is hurting on goalie cats (Martin is his top goalie!!!). Is this enough of a return for downgrading from Grubs to Jones?

Having just acquired Wheeler in a trade I am biased however he will turn it around this season. He's just too good. That combined with a juicy Grubauer in Colorado (current injuries aside), I can not emphasize enough that downgrading to Jones would be a tragic waste. Giordano looks enticing of course but Dumba has age on his side and if you can be patient will pay off for you longterm. I feel you though, Svech is Svech but to me I think the cost is too high with such a premium on quality goaltending.

Dumba would not likely be a keeper for me (he'd cost a 5th round pick next year and I think there will be better options at that value). Giordano probably wouldnt be a keeper either since he'd cost a 3rd next year. So its mostly who is better this year and I think Giordano is trending much higher than Dumba right now unless Dumba does a complete 180 before Xmas.

Yeah, no argument that Grubs is way better than Jones - that's the main draw for the other guy to take the trade. so it boils down to whether I get enough value out of Svech - he'd be a keeper longer than Wheels but question is whether for the rest of this season, Wheels would turn it around enough to get back on a 70-80 point pace? Dobber's tools shows that Svech and Wheels cover peripherals pretty well with Svech coming out on top slightly.

Other interesting players the other owner has are: Provorov (10th round keeper cost next year), Tom Wilson (gold in a banger - could be keeper, but kinda pricey at 7), Hamilton (But I don't think he'd ever trade him this year). His other keepers are Draisaitl, Barzal, Advidsson, Crosby and Teuvo T.
