Vinny & Filatov for Duchene?

[Killer67]

I need a stable C and I think this offer would get it done. Anyone think this is going to hurt me going forward? I get Duchene.

Not sure how many keepers you get but certainly (thou I think Duch will be a great player down the road and the best player in this deal) you are overpaying.

What about Vinny & Yandle for Duchene & Pitkanen (or Coliacovo)?

Giving up on Filly too is dangerous, but it wouldn't necessary be a massive failure. The jury's still out, but who would you pick up to replace him?

Coliacovo, Whitney, Vrbata, etc...They are just holding spots until Staal and Okposo return.

Interesting - hard to comprehend in a way that Viinny is now worth less than Duchene. I certainly think your first offer idea is an overpay.

I understand you want a center now but I really wonder about your timing in trying to move Lecav - could it be worse?

if its a large keeper and u r buikding why not offer Vinny straight up for Duch

Yeah that was kinda where my head was at - maybe throw him a bone in the way of a low class prospect or some kinda pick.

True enough, thanks guys. I guess I feel like Duchene will out point Vinny this year and will be better going forward. I'll try straight up but I need to drop some when Okposo & J Staal come back.
