Trade for a rebuilding team
My team is rebuilding this season and I'm trying to sell off John Carlson and maybe tweak my goalies a little while I'm at it.
I started with the following offer:
Give: Carlson, Chris Driedger
Get: Aaron Ekblad, Thatcher Demko
Which was rejected and countered with:
Give: Carlson, Ilya Samsonov
Get: Aaron Ekblad, Thatcher Demko
It's been tough to get any sort of read on Samsonov this season because he missed so much time with COVID, but I still feel like his long term value is higher than Demko's, so I don't think that's a good trade for me. Or do I have it backwards and Demko > Samsonov?
Alternatively, I could forget about the goalies and offer Carlson for Ekblad. His other goalies are pretty bad (Koskinen, Smith, Vanecek) so I could try offering Elvis Merzlikins instead of Samonov (though I'm currently negotiating a Merzlikins for Blackwood swap with another owner).
