    Default Acquiring Doughty

    Team and league in sig. I've been trying to acquire Doughty given his slow start and received the following offer: Doughty and Voracek for my Carlson and Couture. This would negatively affect my team in terms of goals, shots, faceoffs, PIMs, hits, and probably +/- so I'm wondering if landing Doughty will make this worthwhile. Carlson is no slouch, and Couture is lighting it up so far... Columbus players have always given me fits, and while Voracek is undeniably quite talented he's also very streaky. Bottom line, will this deal benefit me sometime down the line or am I overvaluing Doughty and ignoring the supporting stat categories just to land a big name? Advice or insight appreciated.

    I dont think that will get it done but you can try I just dont see Couture as a huge upgrade to Voreack enough to get Doughty for Carlosn I think you are going to have to step up your game.

    I would accept this trade in a heartbeat. Doughty is extremely talented and it's only a matter of time before the scoresheet reflects that.

    Yes, take this deal write away. Great sell high for your on Couture and buy very very low on Doughty. You're guaranteed to be thankful for this move once Doughty gets back on pace this season, and with the minutes he's getting that will now happen at any time.
