Hossa + O\'Sullivan for Ryder + Marleau
I would take Hossa and O\'Sully by quite a bit, even though they are bit more expensive. Well worth the investment IMO.
Hossa: 90-95 points
O\'Sully: 60-65 points
Marleau: 80-85 points
Ryder: 50-55 points
Hossa and O\'Sully alos have the higher upside of their counterparts. Hossa should threaten 100 points (Marleau MIGHT threaten 90, but no more than that I don\'t think).
O\'Sully could threaten 80 points in the next couple of years. Ryder won\'t come close.

Hossa + O\'Sullivan for Ryder + Marleau
Great trade for the Hossa side. I think both Hossa and O\'Sully have greater upside than Marleau, the best player on the other side. Marleau is having a very nice season, but I don\'t think in his best years he\'ll ever surpass the 85-point mark - he\'s only done it once in that 2005-2006 season, which to me was an anomaly even with SOG (he had 260, far more than ever before and since). Plus the age factor, since he\'ll turn 30 soon, and O\'Sully is very young.

Hey teddy ...I\'m Duck Amuk in your new league where this trade went down in.
I like the Hossa side of it. Although O\'Sully\'s C position is detriment because of the lack of face offs, I feel he\'ll be a good fantasy contributer in years to come. Hossa won\'t get any more expensive because of the NHL economy ...he should resign wherever for about the same amount he makes now. Kudos for Marleau for having a nice comeback year but i see him regressing next year.
