So my question is, if I were to dangle Toews for a winger, what kind of player should be coming back?

Any that I could buy low on now and have my investement repay itself in 3-5 years time?

30 Team, multi-multistat (10 categories for G and 11 for F&D), start 12F 6D G and Flex (any player), 33 man roster with 25 Keepers inc 8 prospects.

I have pick #6 and need more help at F than D but am 99% sure that the top 5 will be Yak, Galy, Grig, Fberg and TT so we're moving into the 2nd level of F prospects and taking the first D becomes a better option.

So would you take a Faksa, Hertl, Grigensons, Wilson, Samuelsson ahead of Reilly or Dumba? I think my D is one of the best in the league (Buff & Letang) but adding to strength helps massively in trades so which way do you go?

First-post-bonus-question: could you rank the above guys as well? Those F are pretty much a toss up for me while I think I like Dumba over Reilly due to potential opportunity amongst a bevy of very good offensive prospects about to move into the NHL.

Cheers!

Do you think J.Morrow will be in the NHL this year? And your 3YP?

What's the effect of Pouliot and Maatta on his long term value in keeper league points only?

Thanks!

Id like to know if you think any of these players will make an impact this season or ever and if so who are the best options to put up points in a very deep keeper league considering all stats

Omark, Da Costa, Aliu, Mursak, Nolan, Cormier, Bulmer

Thankyou

My final options for my bottom 2 active forward spots are A Desjardins, C Gillies, L Leblanc, K Barch, S Matthias, M Beleskey and G Brule (assuming he signs). Which 2 do you see having the best year?

Please rank the following forwards and dmen from "best as a keeper for my team" perspective, for the league in my sig:

- Forwards: Roy, Fleischmann, Perron, Horton, Havlat

- D: Visnovsky, Bieksa, White, McDonagh (keeping in mind my top 3 of Karlsson, Letang and Byfuglien are already going to give tons of points, SOG, etc., and our league counts blocked shots).

I am wonder what BSutter's expected production is now that he is in Pitt as the 3rd line C. Thanks

I'm completing a re-build a year early thanks to a gamble on Mike Smith paying off much better than I ever could have hoped. I'm betting this year that he repeats or comes pretty close to doing so. With that in mind I made the following trade:

In
Milan Lucic
Patrice Bergeron
Erik Cole

Out (PHX)
Devin Setoguchi
Paul Gaustad
Matt Cullen
Marc Methot
Mike Komisarek
Tomas Tatar
Tomas Jurco
Ryan Spooner
Toni Rajala
Charles-Olivier Roussel

My roster is now:
Active:
F: Tavares, Seguin, Lucic, Bergeron, Erat, E. Cole, Mi Granlund, B Schenn, Tarasenko, Eller, K Barch, Beleskey
D: Byfuglien, JJ, Gardiner, Hedman, EJ, Robidas
G: M Smith

Bench:
F: Radulov, Brule, L Leblanc, C Gillies, Matthias, A Desjardins
D: B Smith, T Barrie, A MacDonald, N Schultz
G: Markstrom

It's a 30 team salary cap dynasty league, I finished 14th over-all last year. The above deal cleaned out a good chunk of my high-end prospect depth (still have Colborne, Dumba, Howden, McKegg, Kuhnhackl, Clendenning, Budish, Ebert, Kucherov, Gusev and others on a 30+ man farm roster). Did I make the move too early given the number of question marks on my roster (M Smith repeating, EJ finding his offense, 6 rookies (3 required to play major roles (Granlund, Tarasenko and Schenn))? I dont really have a problem with the value just potentially the timing.
