Vrana/Keller REP

[bbfl1987]

A deal I’m considering is my Vrana and McMichael for Keller and Hoglander. I’m not sure I trust Arizona to keep scoring like this. Is Keller a point per game guy now? What should I do?

Keller has always had a good ceiling.. in the last season and a half I'd say, I've noticed him getting involved a lot more, less perimeter play and shying away from the middle of the ice. He really is the guy in ARZ and they're adding young pieces around him.. I prefer Keller to Vrana, but McMichael to Hoglander.. so I'd say that this deal is more about preference.

I'd maybe lean the Vrana/McM side because of McM's long-term upside and Vrana can put up points too.. but Keller is my favourite single piece choice in the deal.

I fully agree with all of this except personally I would probably lean Keller/Hoglander. Vancouver should be moving pieces out soon and Hoglander will likely get a bigger role in the top soon.

Two GREAT responses so far.

I like Keller most in a points only.

Vrana/McM are solid pieces.

Hogs has a potential 'bump' coming (bit of down year) if/when VAN clears out some guys due to cap.

I'm leaning Keller/Hogs here but can see fair arguments for both sides. Good luck.

Got it done. Thanks, gents!

Is it the league in your signature? If so, I think Keller > Vrana. Prospects are hit and miss, so I would rather take the guy that is becoming a point per game player. His icetime is going up and his scoring is going up. He leads the team in shots and points. The problem is their PP is rubbish. Its the worst in the league. If they improve that, Keller would definitely improve on the numbers you are seeing now. Keller is the best player in the deal. I would definitely make that trade.
