Brad Richards for...

[chromosome9]

Hi all,

I have been offered Mike Green for Brad Richards and Mark Giordano. It's a keeper league (we can keep any 6) and its a bit different than other ones I am in. See the scoring below. Green has 132.5 and Richards has 158 pts so far on the season. I can grab a C off waivers to replace Richards that is about the equivalent in points to Giordano. So I guess I am asking who you think will finish the season stronger -> Richards or Green?

My other centres are Stastny, Getzlaf and Zajac (he is filling in for Getzlaf as we start 3)


+/- - Plus Minus 1 point
A - Assists 1.5 points
DA - Defenseman Assists 0.75 points
DG - Defenseman Goals 1 point
G - Goals 3 points
GA - Goals Against -1 point
HT - Hat Tricks 3 points
Hits - Hits 0.25 points
L - Losses -2.5 points
PIM - Penalty Minutes 0.5 points
PPA - Power Play Assists 0.75 points
PPG - Power Play Goals 1.5 points
S - Saves 0.25 points
SHA - Short Handed Assists 3 points
SHG - Short Handed Goals 6 points
SO - Shut Outs 10 points
W - Wins 5 points

Welcome to the boards!

Damn, I really like this deal for you. In a keep 6 there's almost no way you keep Richards as you are already deep at center. Green, however, could be an amazing keeper for you. Considering how close he is to Richards in your scoring system despite how poorly he's played tells me that his upside in your league is enormous.

Thanks! That was the 'nudge' I needed

Image a 70 or 80 point Green next year.... he's way younger.... you already have it figured out in regard to points for this year.

Yep, take a chance on the potential Hall-of-Fame D-man!

Did Green lead your league in points last year?

Just think about this: Green gets a 3 point night (2 goals, 1 assist), and gets 9.25 points. Richards does the same thing, only 7. That's a big difference. i'd do this, considering your league and its cats.
