Kucherov or Panarin & MacKinnon + or McDavid

[Grapes]

Out of it this year and I’m looking to acquire Kucherov .
I’ve been asked for Panarin. Kucherov is my second favourite player.

Second offer from another GM is MacKinnon & Rantanen for McDavid. I’m seriously considering this one because MacKinnon is my favourite player.

If you are out of it this year then I like both of these moves for you.

Its never easy giving up McDavid - but you are getting a player that is just below McDavid and Rantanen.

Your keepers go from:

McDavid, Panarin, Vasilevskiy, Marchand, Malkin, Rielly

to

MacKinnon, Kucherov, Vasileskiy, Rantanen, Marchand (Malkin/Rielly/Hall)

Personally, I dont think that is enough for McDavid, I would keep him. It is a very good offer though.

I would do that Panarin trade. It is a bit of a gamble due to Kucherov's injury, however, I think the gamble is worth it.

Thanks. Just trying to be thorough. While I like McDavid, both Kucherov and MacKinnon are my two favourite players.
Trades are tough in this league so I decided to change my keepers to players I like while being competitive at the same time. Looking for a little more fun in the process.

In your league, that McDavid offer is reasonable early in a full season where you get impact of two players for a whole year, and upgrade your keepers. Now, halfway through a shortened season, I pass.

The Panarin trade seems fine, if you're out of it. I think Panarin is close to Kucherov.

I'd never trade McDavid.

Especially since we haven't even seen if Kuch will make a full recovery. Hip surgery is nothing minor.

The last 3players to have hip surgery were Pekka Rinne, Jamie benn, Ryan Kesler.

Rinne recovered ok for a few years .

Kesler and benn never ever looked the same again. In fact Kesler needed a 2nd hip surgery last year and hasn't played since.

Benn went from scoring leader to a very fast fade away

The McDavid offer will be there after the season as well.

The Panarin for Kucherov talks have shifted. The OGM won’t do Panarin for Kucherov straight up. He will only move Kucherov & Matthews for McDavid & Panarin which doesn’t help me improve Malkin/Hall/Rielly.

My objective is to improve upon Malkin, Hall, Rielly, Marchand in my last 3 keeper spots.
McDavid I can trade anytime.

Keep McDavid unless the trade makes you the favourite for a few years.
