    I am offered Burns, Vasilevskiy, James Neal for Tavares, Binnington, and Boeser in a franchise keeper league. What do you guys think? I think no even though my defense is weak.

    I would keep what you have. The age difference makes it a tough sell.

    I would pass. You're giving up the best two forwards by quite a margin and burns is really struggling. Vas and binnington are close enough not to make up the forward loss. Then there's the age as mentioned. It's just way too meh of a deal for you.
    Set roster weekly in H2H (Mon to Sun) - 16 Teams - start 6F, 3D, and 1G per week - Keep 2

    Points: 2 G / 2 A / 1 PPG / 1 PPA / 1 Hat Trick / 1 SHG / 1 SHA / 1 GWG - 3 Goalie Win / 2 Goalie Loss in SO or OT / 5 goalie SO

    Forwards:
    C. McDavid, N. Kucherov, R. O'Reilly, J. Schwartz, J. Toews, J. Huberdeau, T. Toffoli, M. Granlund

    Defense:
    B. Burns, J. Klingberg, R. Josi, J. Slavin

    Goalie:
    J. Binnington

    IR (2 max):

    Pass. You need to fix that D though. I replied to your post in the Defenseman area.

    No you would lose on that.

    McDavid/Necas/ Kucherov/Bjorkstrand/Rust/Nugent Hopkins/Cirelli/Zegras/- Letang/Morrissey/Dahlin - Swayman/Saros/Skinner

    Prospects include:
    McTavish/Clarke/Bordeleau
    Dumais/Korchinski/Hutson

    Don't worry I'm not going to say anything more than I have to. If that.

    Would a Tavares for Burns deal work? I have way too many centers but the problem is that Burns is 35 so he’s on the decline

    I wouldn't. Burns is too old and is showing serious signs of decline this year. Guys in their mid 30's tend to drop off fast when the decline does happen. I think trading JT for a very good Dman is a smart move but if you acquire Burns you're getting a very short-term fix and are likely to just find yourself in the same boat next season.

    With only 1G spot in this league and your current G depth, this trade does not make sense for you.

    What is a "franchise" keeper league? A dynasty (full keeper)?
