    Default Mackinnon offer??

    Was offered Nathon Mackinnon & a 4th round pick for Quinn Hughes & Jack Hughes....

    I am a huge fan of Mackinnon BUT also realize how hard defensman like Q. Hughes are to come by, let alone Jack Hughes in 3 years.

    Thoughts?

    Absolutely I would take this deal! You have other good young defensemen to soften the blow of losing Quinn.

    I'd do that you have a small active roster, and there's a good chance that Jack Hughes isn't going to be startable for a while still. YOu can cover for the loss of Quinn Hughes.

    And you seem to have no trouble finding defensemen like that, either.

    If your team can compete now, I make this deal.

    I am not sure the 4th round pick holds much value here. In my eyes this is basically Nate vs the Hughes brothers.

    I would probably do the deal, but I'd try and get him to sweeten the pick.

    Yes I agree the 4th is irrelevant . So this year we finished 8th ( with out the use of Tarasenko because of injury) out of 14 dynasty teams and we have been building for 4 years as an expansion team to a 25 year dynasty league. S I agree that if we feel we can compete next year then we do the deal but that is the question as our team is full of young promising breakout potentials. Just have to decide if we are ready to go for it

    Another yes. The Hughes brothers have big potential. But in MacK you'd get a guy that's as good as it gets. Take the sure thing and let the other guy wait until the Hughes brothers live completely up to the hype (if they do so at all).

    The small active roster is the key for me here. What you want is a few top end guys, not a whole bunch of 'good' players, when you're only going to start 6 per week anyways. Yes it hurts to lose Quinn Hughes but gotta give to get.
    PS: do you have any options to fill your "vet" spot.

    Please look at MacKinnon's age. MacKinnon >> Jack Hughes, due to the lack of bust potential. Admittedly MacKinnon can't breakout like Jack Hughes can.

    My vet spot will be filled with 2 of my 3 first round picks or 3 2nd round picks. We can keep our players until they are 32. once they turn 33 they go back into the pool for drafting and can be held for the one year you draft them. Ovie, Malkin, Bergeron, Rask, Price, Burns and now Crosby etc. etc. are up for grabs to line your pool with vets or extra goalies if you need it. They always are gone in first two rounds. I am well positioned to go for it as I will be able to add 7 roster players to my lineup ( If I drop or trade Gardiner). actually 8 if I do the deal as its a 2 for 1. Thanks for all the feedback!

    I agree Mackinnon at 24 is very young and just getting into his prime Full Value. No real risk other than injury and with Makar leading the power play $$$$$$$$

    **also we dress 7 forwards next year not 6 as we decided to dress 1 goalie next year instead of the 2 we have been doing to date.
