Outgoing
David Krejci
Joni Pitkanen

Incoming
JP Dumont
Ryan Whitney

what do you folks think? I had a center to move with Sundin activated (and Briere returning soon).

I like this deal. Moving an asset out to updgrade the wing and def.

Whitney is quietly going to make pitts offense that much more better (pp especially) and I like him over Pitkanen.

Dumont helps your wing position and as much as Krejci is turning it on you have C\'s that can fill in the void adequately.

I agree, it\'s a very nice deal for you. On top of everything else, you get rid of some injury risk with Pitkanen. Dumont is very streaky but overall is a pretty solid addition to your W corps.

i honestly don\'t like it, your definately selling high with Krejci, however i feel that (this is a keeper right?) you could pull a bit more value from this

maybe try to swing a pick as well?

Not a keeper Limpdave

I look at it this way Angus - RW upgrade, D upgrade (maybe not as much as it would seem) - bring comparable centers to Krejci into play.

Can\'t see how this doesn\'t work for you.

[Kickerz]

Could you possibly swap Briere in there instead of Krejci? I am always wary of hot and cold streaks and tend to make a fortune in their dealings, but I think I would prefer Krejci to either Sundin or Briere.

I am not fully sold on the upgrade value of Whitney over Pitkanen. There is some, but not a lot.

Bottom line I say no to Krejci and Pitkanen for Dumont and Whitney and yes to Briere or Sundin and Pitkanen for those two.

Good luck with your decision.

You prefer Krejci over Briere Kickerz? That\'s a debate in itself I guess. Krejci\'s nice but unless you have concerns injury wise I don\'t see how one would pick Krejci over Briere for this year. I do agree however that I\'d much rather give up Sundin than Briere - I get the sense that Sundin will take 10 games or so to get up to speed, and even if he does, there\'s a good chance things get derailed by an injury. Unless he\'s free or comes very cheaply, I\'m in favor of staying away from Sundin for this year.
