    Default Vrana for Boeser?

    Thinking about offering my Vrana for his Boeser. I知 stacked up at LW, could use a RW but I知 not desperate. I have Guentzel, Rax, Bertuzzi at RW. He really needs a LW, only has Forsberg and streamer quality backup.

    I really like Vrana and his upside. I知 thinking the two players have similar point projections (around 70, give or take) but I love Vrana for off nights. Should I make the offer?

    I make that trade in heartbeat if it gets it done. I like Vrana but I still take Boeser over him. Now with you filling a positional need it's a no brainer.

    You can offer, but unlikely the other owner accepts. Boeser getting all the offensive opportunity in the world. Vrana next to nothing for opportunity in Washington and it will likely stay that way for some time.

    Hmm...people like Boeser that much? Dobber has him for 63 pts...Vrana for 52. Vrana appears to be breaking out in a big way, will be playing w backstrom when he returns from injury and WSH has one of the best off night schedules in the league. Boeser probably has the higher floor, but both have the upside. If both hit 70 (entirely possible with current point pace), are Vrana's off nights enough to make him the more valuable hold?

    I think Boeser still outpoints Vrana, if only because of power play opportunity. Since your league counts PPP, I think Boeser is the better own (especially if you think you could use another RW). However, I know injuries are voodoo, but Boeser seems to enjoy getting hurt. I'd still do it.

    I wouldn't trade my Boeser for him. Brock, if I'm not mistaken, leads the whole league in PP time and is also glued to Pettersson at even strength. His deployment is wayyyyyyyyyy safer than Vrana's

    Those 63 pts Dobber projects are also in 71 games (72 pt pace) so keep that in mind. Vrana’s projections have him around 55 pts and with his deployment I think even finishing at 60+ would be fantastic. They both have nice upside but Vrana won’t get there playing 15 min a night with PP2 minutes.

    Boeser is playing 19 minutes a game with a crap load of PP time next to EP and has never been below a 67 pt pace since his first real season...if I owned him there’s no way I trade for Vrana straight up. You’re looking at a 70-80 pt pace for Boeser practically guaranteed vs a guy who isn’t even pacing for quite 70 with less than ideal usage. Don’t let the better off night schedule make a difference here—Boeser is the much safer pick and that’s an easy decision for me.

    I like Vrana, I own Vrana, he just isn't getting the same level of opportunity as Boeser. If one day Vrana could get up to 19 minutes a game and top PP deployment then I think I may even lean Vrana, as his health is not as big a question mark.

    I can say this much, if I was offered Boeser for my Vrana I would mash the accept button.

    he might have him down for 63, but he's currently on a 71pt pace but also has pt/gm+ upside playing along side EP all season. 63ish is where I expect Vrana to land this season. Boeser will be closer to 80 than 70 - assuming he stays healthy (probably more the reason he's projected at 63)

    not everyone is a Boeser believer yet. I'd say there's a 30% chance OGM accepts 1-1, but would expect a decline & need to add a sweetener.
