    Default Marner trade

    Another manager in my league put Marner and Couture on the block, indicates he wants LW and FOW as priority.

    I lowballed my Forsberg straight up for his Marner, he came back with Marner+Barzal for Forsberg+Gallagher. Marner is signed as a 4th rounder with 2 yrs remaining and Gallagher as a 13th rounder with 1 yr remaining. Forsberg and Barzal were both drafted this year and not likely to be a keeper for either of us.

    Barzal as a dedicated C has limited value in our pool. He doesn't win face-offs and his physical play is almost non-existent. Could say the same for Marner, but 90pt potential for a RW is a whole different story. Gallagher is good value as a 13th rounder but is less physical so far this year. Forsberg is ... who knows. If Nashville ever figures out the PP he could be a beast but until then...

    He's currently in 2nd place in our league, I'm 10th. My team is awesome at G, A, +/-, SOG, SHP but terrible in PIM, PPP, GWG, FOW, HIT, and BLK. This would be to establish Marner as a keeper for next year more so than improving my many deficiencies this year.

    Thoughts?
    12 Team H2H, keep up to 4 with max total contract years <=10. Keepers replace the draft round in which they were originally selected.

    G, A, +/-, PIM, PPP, SHP, GWG, SOG, HIT, BLK, FW,

    C: Karlsson, Trochek, Haula (C/LW)
    LW: Guentzel (LW/RW), Connor, Vrana, Teravainen (LW/RW), Forsberg,
    RW: Konecny, Gallagher (R13), Voracek, Toffoli (LW/RW), Namestnikov (LW/RW)
    D: Carlson, Graves, DeAngelo, Werenski, Myers
    G: Andersen (R3), Samsonov, Merzlikins


    * Andersen (R3) is signed for 2 more years, Gallagher (R13) signed for 1 more year. Carlson is termed out, can't keep.

    Marner, in my view, is the jewel here - especially that you can keep him 2 more years. I’d go for it.
    CONDORS, 2022-23 league champions, Reg Dunlop Mem Cup

    12-team, H2H. Keep 12, but drop 2 of top four skaters, and also 2 of next six, then five more (from end-of-year rankings). One GK max.

    Stutzle, Sergachev
    Keller, Doughty, Verhaeghe, ErikssonEk
    E.Lindholm, Barzal, J.Gaudreau, Huberdeau, S. Wright

    I'd make that trade now.
    Marner + 2 more yrs of control.

    Plus you can also move Ovie and Carlson for more futures.

    Thanks for the responses.

    Given he initially put Marner and Couture on the block I tried to substitute Barzal for Couture. He countered with his Marner and Couture for my Wheeler and Connor.

    Between the two scenarios, I like the first one better. Thoughts?
