Rantanen Trade

[harr1son56]

For my league in my sig. I've been receiving a lot of trade offers for Rantanen and most of them being very underwhelming. One that I have some interest in is

My Rantanen + Hedman for Their Dahlin + Batherson + A prospect that i haven't figured out who yet. I tried to get Wallstedt but he wanted Ersson included but I dont want to move Ersson right now. The other prospects that could be included would be Oliver Moore, Will Smith, Marco Casper, and potentially Cutter Gauthier. My team isn't in a spot to compete this year but I'm hoping in a couple years to be a contender. Should I have any interest for this trade? I would be set on defense for a long time and Batherson will help fill the Rantanen hole in a bangers league. Or should i just hold onto Rantanen unless I can get a overpayment on him?

Thanks for any input! Will rep for the help.

Dahlin for Hedman is a fair deal. I would even add a bit to get that done. However, Rantanen (age 27 and still productive big time within your 2 year win window] for Batherson and a prospect is just not a reasonable return IMO. The Dahlin for Hedman piece does not make up for the proposed return for Rantanen. I'd shop Hedman for sure but any package deal that includes Rantanen would have to be significantly stronger than what you have been offered IMO. I'm passing on this.

I completely agree with Bubba
