    Default Looking to retool...am I getting a good enough return?

    Trying to move some higher priced pieces for guys who are ready to start contributing and future.

    I would be moving Marchand, and the current offer on the table is as follows;

    R. Thomas - STL
    J. Kyrou - STL
    P. Tomasino - NSH

    Thomas and Kyrou would be in my active roster and I would have 3 more seasons with Tomasino on my minor league roster, before he would have to jump up to my active roster.

    Thoughts, pros and cons, as always are appreciated.

    Definitely need more information here - we don't know scoring, league size, roster rules, etc.

    Even without more info i think this is a paltry return for a guy like marchand, this puts you in a full rebuild, a retool is a little different to me, you should target guys like Larkin, Svechnikov and the like, or to a lesser degree the Jack Hughes and Kakko type players, Marchand is a stud in almost any format, get guys established but younger in the NHL and speed up the retool, if i had a guy like any of the players above and had a chance to win i wouldnt hesitate to trade one or two of them for marchand. EI - Larkin and Kakko would be a great return and one worth doing, just my 2 cents

    Even in a cap league this return seems very light. But yeah, without knowing how deep the line ups are and what the scoring categories, nobody can say much of anything about this deal.

    I like the players you are receiving but I don't think it's enough. If you trade for really young players like that, I don't call it a retool but a rebuild.

    Marchand is not higher priced when you consider the return he gives you on production. If anything, yes a bargain at his contract price.

    You can do much better than this. To me, you're too busy at looking at age compared to anything else.
