Richards vs Alfredsson
Without knowing a few more specifics of your league...are there positional requirements for F...how close to your cap are you...here\'s an initial take.
Giving up M. Richards, A. Kostitsyn and a pick seems a lot to give up for D. Alfredsson. Having said that, I think you\'re still getting the single best player in the deal. If you think this gives you a chance to win without completely paralyzing your ability to maneuver next year [cap wise], I think it\'s worth doing.
I would suggest you shouldn\'t need to add a pick as you\'re already giving up two high end youngsters who are already NHL ready. Certainly downgrade the pick at least. See what others say though.
Cheers.
