I agree with keeping Benn. But if you really want to grab a D keeper, target OEL.

This is what I was thinking. Still try and make a trade but this is good fall back option. Could also try and get young stud D. Like Dougie Hamilton or Justin Schultz.

Ill try to target Letang or AP with Timonen+ maybe a secondary piece, he's killing it right now. Ill see what their owners say, but I wont push too hard for either one, im not willing to overpay at this point of the season. Thanks for the advice guys, much appreciated.

IR:

did you lose already or something? don't dismantle your team for a slam dunk D unless your packing it in this season and think you can land a letang type do-it-all defender. otherwise just keep benn. In a keep four their will be plenty of good dmen at the draft, get one of them or else get even better forwards if everyone keeps/ drafts dmen ahead of you.

So in a keep 4 you want to give up 2 players who should be Point Per Game players and acquire a Dman when you have no categories specifically aimed at Dmen? Not to mention Kopitar who has the skill to be PPG also. I guess if you are hell bent on the idea go after the big 2, Letang and Karlsson if you are unable to get them I do not see the point, not that I do anyways. I would much rather keep Backstrom or Benn.
