    Default Team Upgrade Mackinnon

    Team in sig.
    I have a slim chance of winning this year, but I'm going to try.
    I just traded Gaudreau for Crosby for a slight upgrade.

    My goaltending is unfixable unless I massively overpay.

    My D is pretty good I think.

    The Mackinnon owner is in second last, he's way out of it now.

    His team:
    Mackinnon
    E Kane
    Kuznetsov
    Vrana
    Lee
    Pavelski
    Radulov (IR)
    M Tkachuk

    J Carlson
    Seth Jones
    Ekblad
    R Andersson

    Samsonov
    Holtby

    Should I offer Panarin and a good defenceman, or even Panarin and Barzal for Mackinnon and a weak piece. Or is that not a big enough upgrade?
    The dream would be to add Mackinnon without losing Panarin but I also don't want to give away Sid. Might be stuck, but I wanted to see if people had any ideas.

    Thanks

    If you can do it without having to add a big piece to Panarin, then I think it's a win.

    If you yourself say your goaltending is not fixable, how do you see yourself pushing for a win? Mackinnon would be nice but I don’t see you winning with those goalies...

    You should fix your goaltending if you want to win.

    Also, why would this GM, in 2nd last place, make a move trading away MacKinnon for Panarin? We have no return date for Panarin and MacKinnon is a top 5 player. In a 1 year league it makes no sense for him and if I'm another GM I'm going to be questioning the motive (hint: possible collusion).

    I think it goes without saying that if you can get MacKinnon for Panarin, do it. Just seems suspicious from other perspectives.

    Trade doesn't have to be today. Panarin could be back soon. I'm willing to pay steep. What's Panarin if not top 5?

    All I can do is improve other areas of the team right now. I've shopped both goalies around, packaged with a good forward for a lesser piece and a goalie, any goalie, and no takers.

    Keep trying. In a one year league with your setup MacKinnon for Panarin doesn’t help much.

    Is it worth circling back to Shesterkin for Price?

    Maybe. Price is lost right now too. Definitely a buy low with some rebound potential.

    I'm going to offer Pietrangelo and Shesterkin for Weber and Khudobin. Weber might be a downgrade but his other D are Provorov, McAvoy, and Byram. If he refuses, I could try for Byram, because he's not getting the minutes or PP time, basically dead weight.

    Sounds like a plan. If I were you would think about targeting buy low guys vs a G who had a shutout his last time out. Maybe some guys who are having minor injury issues (Kuemper, Andersen, Ullmark)

    Was going to do Kuemper. I forgot Khudobin had that shut-out though, good point.

    Guy who owns Kuemper and Khudobin has me on ignore I think. Was going to offer for Hart today but he's working on a shutout this afternoon.

    Put an offer in for Andersen. Shesterkin and Klingberg for Andersen and Letang, which will be rejected.

    That leaves Price, Holtby, Koskinen, and maybe Mrazek (IR) as attainable in my league via trade.

    Give Mrazek and shot. And Elliot started for Philly, not Hart.

    Made the offer, but the guy never responded. He hasn't responded to a single offer this year, or last, so I'm pretty safe assuming he won't this time. Mrazek has no timetable for return anyway....
    Not looking good. Georgiev getting another start today. McPhee just said whenever Lehner comes back, they're going to split starts, so at least he's viable at that point.
