Kuch for Draisaitl

Kucherov + 5th for Draisaitl

Ive been looking to add a RW keeper, but is this a decent deal for Drai? I’ve unloaded a ton of picks so my draft next year is pretty weak so any picks help.

I don't mind it at all, what's your plan at LW? Going to find a way to keep Huberdeau? I imagine there are decent goalies left at the draft.

[Christian T]

Ideally I’d like to keep a forward from each position, so Mackinnon, Huberdeau/Svech and Kucherov, with Carlson and Hart as my D and G. Then Makar as my rookie.

[MZac]

Yes so Svech would be the drop if you kept Huberdeau? Depending on goalie availability in your league I think I'd rather drop Hart than Svech but you know better than I do. Any chance we can structure the Kucherov deal around Svechnikov instead of Drai? Svech+ for Kuch?

We either have to keep a goalie, or a 2nd D. I’ve tried to get him to bite with Svech but he’s set on Drai

[MZac]

Sorry I missed that. Ok makes sense then, you'll have a tough decision between Huberdeau and Svech at the end of the year but tough decisions are a good thing.

Managed to get a 3rd round pick included so the full deal would be Kuch + 3rd for Draisaitl + 8th. Is Kuch or Draisaitl the better own as a keeper moving forward?

[stevegamer]

I'd take the deal, as the difference in keeper quality between Draisatl & Kucherov is small at best, and it's virtually unknowable who will be better.
