Goalies were a position of strength for me last year (Lundqvist, Quick, and both Blues goalies) and a major reason why I won our league (the number of shutouts were ridiculous). I drafted Mike Smith this year, and can't help but entertain the idea of selling Quick for another elite player and keeping Smith. I do think that Quick will be good for a long time playing under Sutter, but one can make the same argument for Smith playing in Tippett's system.

I've read arguments in another thread on Smith warning dobberites about his pending free agency and the possible impacts on him should he sign somewhere other than Phoenix. That, coupled with my gut and logic, tell me that I should stick with Quick.

Any thoughts? I'm in an 8 team keeper (keep 12, max 2 goalies) and kept Lundqvist and Quick last year. If you think that selling Quick is smart, what kind of value do you think he'd return?

Here are the rest of the details:

My roster:
C: Stamkos, Tavares, Getzlaf, Shaw
L: Kovy, Neal, Patches, Ericksson, M Foligno
R: Wheeler, Simmonds, Voracek, Cole
D: Chara, Del Zotto, Boyle, Yandle, Campbell, Kulikov, Nikitin
G: Lundqvist, Quick, Smith, Hiller, Brodeur

League settings:
positions: C(x3), L(x3), R(x3), D(x6), Utility(1), G(x3), Bench(x6) =25 players.
Cats include: G(1), A(1), +/- (.5), PIM (.25), SHG (2), SHA (1), GWG (2), Hits and blocks (.1), W(2), GA (-.2), SV (.05), SO (5)

Thanks!

I'd hold onto Lundy and Quick. That's an incredible 1, 2 punch at goalie and it will allow you to focus your drafting elsewhere while other teams scramble to solidify between the pipes

I ride this team with Lundy and Quick. Arguably the best goalie tandum in your league. No need to wreck that.

Yeah, in an eight team league there is a lot of parity at F and D. Quick and Lundqvist could be the difference-makers you need in a title run.

Have you considered dangling Hiller or Smith to gauge interest?

Your team looks really strong, even for an eight team league.

I agree, keep Lundy and Quick.

That's an unreal tandem! You should be able to get some help in other areas if you dangle Mike Smith and Jonas Hiller.

I would try to upgrade your right wingers, if anything.

For that team, if it were mine, unless I could get Malkin or Giroux while holding onto my other top end forwards, I wouldn't trade Quick, period.
