pts-only keeper, we keep 7 (talking about my team 1) - getzlaf's price is 5.8m, voracek is 1.8m. if their price was the same, i'd have no issues taking getz in return, but with voracek at such a price, should i trade away? i have ennis at 2.0m by comparison, could maybe send him off instead. i'm currently in a down year, trying to improve my keepers in anticipation of next year. the other guy's team is:

f - thornton (7.0), stastny 6.5, datsyuk 6.5, getzlaf 5.8, weiss 3.4, krejci 2.9, peverley 2.3, marchand 2.1, gallagher 2.0, umberger 1.9, berglund 1.4, seguin 1.4, huberdeau 0.6
d- streit 4.2, pietrangelo 1.4, OEL 0.9m, hamilton 0.6m
g - rask 1.5m, pavelec 2.3

my team with salaries:

f - e.staal 6.0, kopitar 5.6, eriksson 3.1, j.staal 2.4, ennis 2.0, voracek 1.8, eberle 1.8, backlund 0.8, granlund 0.6, tarasenko 0.6, baertschi 0.6
d - yandle 1.9, carlson 1.1, b.smith 1.0, faulk 0.8, gardiner 0.8, barrie 0.5
g - quick 3.9, fasth 2.5


my question basically is: should i keep packaging off to get the best 7 fwds possible? in doing so, should i trade off ennis or jake for getzlaf?

take note, un-kept players can be "signed" but are at risk of being drafted in a 30-pick dispersal draft at season's end. kept players are untouchable.

Well if you can move Ennis for Getzlaf then that's a no-brainer.

Getzlaf is better than either.

ok what if it's getzlaf for voracek AND ennis - the key part of the deal being voracek? i'm tempted to ask for a high draft pick back in return, or throw in faulk to get OEL as a gapstop - what do you guys think?

Here's what I'd do.

I think OEL is destined to be a top 10 (minimum) Offesive Defender as soon as next year.
