    Default Aho, Rantanen, and Trouba or Elias Lindholm, Jack Hughes, and Montour ?

    Hello all,

    Going into the all star break, I have a cool 8 point lead in my Roto redraft league.

    This morning, the 2nd placed team sent me this trade:

    His Aho, Rantanen, and Trouba for my Elias Lindholm, Jack Hughes, and Montour.

    Categories are G, A, PPP, SOG, Hit, and +/-.

    I'm happy with the trade up until Montour, as he has been a huge reason for my success this year. But I'm getting the feeling he may slow down a bit over the second half, especially if Maurice splits up him and Ekblad.

    Categories that I stand to improve most upon are goals and hits, for what it's worth.

    Any preference here ?

    I’m not trading Hughes here. You lose this trade.

    I'm not sure I'd say you lose this trade, but I think it's petty close.

    I think Rantanen and Aho are upgrades to Hughes/Lindholm, but Montour has been a D1 this year. The shot rate has been excellent as well. Trouba will give you so many less points.

    I say it's a push, and most times when I have a trade that I can't decide on, I tend to keep the players I have.

    My two cents

    Especially when they’ve got you sitting in first so far.

    Yeah Hughes/Lindholm for Rantanen/Aho is a push. I give the edge to Hughes because he’s better and Rantanen has been injury prone. Really can’t go wrong with either side. It’s Montour Trouba where I think the trade becomes a loss for you.

    Yep that's my exact thinking. Hughes has been shooting and scoring more than Mikko.

    I do think Aho will be better than Lindholm rest of the way but it'll be close.

    And in Roto, Montour has been a top 5 defenseman this year while Trouba top 40. Trouba will shoot just as much as Montour and hit more, but the points difference is remarkable.
