In a 14-team keeper league, I think it's a good time to look at moving Ovechkin for a top tier goalie.
Why: It is easy to evaluate forward vs. forward - making it very tough to get a good return on Ovechkin.
The key: It is very hard to evaluate forward vs. goalie.
Ovechkin is still considered, by most, as a top-tier forward.
And you can therefore flip him, by relation, for a top-tier goalie.
In 14-team leagues, goalies carry a ton of value.
I'd look for a team that happens to be well-stocked at goalie.
They will feel they can part with one.
Make them a decent offer of Ovechkin+ for Goalie+.
I really have to try to move Ovechkin in my dynasty league.
Might be the last year he has ELITE value attached to him.
Last year I was offered Carey Price for Ovechkin.
I declined because our league was including HITS for this year... but I'm now wishing I had made that deal.
