Oh boy I am not so sure about turning down that deal - Karlsson is going to be a stud and Parise is already - gotta love what Sedin brings but jeez that deal looks sweet to me.
Reject that for sure.

That really bad first offer in your post. crawford deal I think
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken."
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."
I got the best player in the deal by far.

You just landed a player who will get you close to 1,000 NHL points over the next decade. Sit back and enjoy. You win.
Preface* I'm not sure how many keepers you get, but I'm basing this on it being above 4. Assuming OP meant Cory Crawford, this is an objective loss and it will probably hurt his team. Roloson is probably going to be retiring soon and is on a terrible Isles team for the time being, not good. I'm also high on Ryan Kesler, I see no reason he can't score 70-75 points most seasons and Krejci can reasonably be expected to produce about the same in the future. MacKenzie is basically a dump.
So you have
Dump
Dump
Backstrom (C)
vs
70-75 pt forward
70-75 pt forward
Goalie who'll probably get a lot of wins this year and has a solid future.
Is there something I'm missing??

This season you are loosing but you yourself said you were weak on D....Karlsson = STUD and Sedin = Parise next season on...Done deal!
We get 10 Keepers, My Players worthy of being keepers would have been:
D.Sedin
Horton
D.Jones
Kadri
Wolski
Connolly
Kessler
Krejci
Myers
Markov
Quick
Thats 11, 1 too many.
I traded 2 of my would have been keepers for a superstar(Best player in the deal), and in the meantime cut down to the correct number of keepers. I wouldn't have kept Crawford anyways. I could care less about losing him.

I'm confused, I can't navigate the whole thread and find every single trade you have been offered lol.
So why don't you just put all the trades you have been offered into one post and I will look at all of them. I can't even remember the Crawford deal lol
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken."
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."
haha sounds good.
TRADE #1
To Him:
F - Ryan Kesler
F - David Krejci
G - Corey Crawford
To Me:
F - Nik Backstrom
F - Derek MacKenzie
G - Dwayne Roloson
I Accepted it.
TRADE #2
To Me
Tyler Myers D
Nicklas Grossman D
Chris Neil F
To Him
Travis Hamonic D
Tyler Ennis F
Kyle Quincey D
Michael Grabner F
I Accepted this as well, I need a d-man that I can use as a keeper and Ennis would have been my only keeper form the players that I traded.
TRADE #3
To Him
D. Sedin
To Me
Parise
Karlsson
I didnt make the trade yet, but am thinking about it.
24 team Keeper, H2H (points only), Salary cap, No Position Requirements, 12F 6D 2G
========================================
Okay that helps a lot. I think you won most of these trades, I also think the last one with Parise and Erik Karlsson is a no brainer. Not really sure what Travis Hamonic is going to do with the Islanders but Calvin De Haan is the d man of the future there. Quincey is garbage, Grabner is a mess. I assume your league counts PIM's so Grossman and Neil are nice pickups. Nice trade there. The first trade is also a no doubter, I thought you were getting Backstrom the goalie, but you're getting the stud forward so you have to take that deal. As long as you can find decent replacements for MacKenzie, Roloson etc, these deals are great for you. Sorry about my confusion, you just had like a ****load of trades that you posted and I wasn't following ahaha.
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken."
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."
I guess I'm the only person questioning who you'd have kept, Wolski, Connolly and Markov are borderline, D. Jones is still an unknown commodity as well. Objectively, you lost this trade without any doubt. You were apparently a little over attracted to the big name and went for it, most people here do. That's how big names get so valuable. Don't worry, we all do it sometimes but try to be a little bit better at your critical thinking next time.
