I think I'd do that. You are contending, and it's close. the deal helps you this year, and doesn't hurt the keeper spots too badly.
For first league in sig (keep 8, hoping you can see my roster via the link), we have no IR slots, and only 1 FA pickup each season (I grabbed DeAngelo). Got an offer on the table right now, Guentzal for Couturier/Pulock (plus a mid-round pick upgrade 4 for 7 going my way). Couturier would be a fringe keeper, and only if he has a really solid 2nd half, otherwise I would likely be keeping DeAngelo.
Basically giving up a rock-solid keeper who won't do anything for me ROS for a decent fwd producer and another depth D. I'm currently in a dogfight for 1st (4 teams all within 10 points).
Current keepers:
Kucherov
Matthews
Pettersson
Guentzel
Hedman
Letang
Andersen
JT Miller/DeAngelo/Bjorkstrand
Post-trade Keepers:
Kucherov
Matthews
Pettersson
Hedman
Letang
Andersen
JT Miller/DeAngelo/Bjorkstrand/Couturier
Thanks for any opinions!
Edit: he offered a better pick upgrade

Thanks Steve, yeah that's my thinking, just had such dreams of Guentzel helping me win championship after championship for years to come :P Would rep if I could!
