Possible Niemi trade (REP)

[Sens85]

Im trying to land a goalie to fix my stupid goalie troubles and deal away the cancer that is Halak. Niemi's owner might be interested in dealing him. I sent him a trade with Halak+Kopitar for Neimi, he responded that he wants Allen too. Does this deal look good for me?

Halak+Allen+Kopitar(Or Backstrom-C) for Niemi (and maybe Fasth as well).

Should I offer Kopitar or Backstrom(C)? Kopitar is way better this year, but Backstrom is perceived to have higher potential and has higher O-rank in my yahoo league. Also should I ask for Fasth back or not bother with him since Hiller seems to be back in full control.

Note; Niemi will most likely be my 4th keeper, team info in Sig.

EDIT: I should mention Niemi's owner has Hiller and Fasth as well. Im assuming he's gona drop Fasth if he asked for Allen as well, I doubt he's gona keep 4 goalies.

Personally I think its overpayment. Halak=Niemi and thats coming from a sharks fan. But ok Niemi has so far got a much better season so I can see why you would have to add to make a deal. If you arent keeping either Backstrom or Kopitar then trade Backstrom.

No friggin way! I wouldn't trade Kopi or Backsteom for Niemi straight up. Even Allen is a decent chip, putting a claim in on the starting gig in St.L. walk away from the computer before you make a MASSIVE error.

In a keep four, I wouldn't be keeping two goalies (unless you have two top goalies, like lundqvist and Rinne, and even then, I'd probably trade one for an elite forward and keep only one). I think you'd be better off having Backstrom as a keeper instead of Niemi.

Anyways, you're massively overpaying here, and that's without Allen in the deal.
