thought it was worth a try since her G is really weak/inactive

I GET:
Crosby

SHE GETS:
Olli Jokinen
Cristobal Huet

sure i\'d get a hole in my G but i\'ll still have turco but on the plus side i\'ll get crosby

i may lose in the W category for goalies but i\'d still have a chance of winning SV% GAA and SHO every week

that is an awful trade, why would anyone ever take that?

i\'m in essence trying to force her had, i mean jokinen is still a 90 point scorer with PIM, she only has emery and harding and i play her the coming week and emery probably wont be back by then. if she doesn\'t take this trade and no one else offers her trades, i automatically win 4 out of 10 categories just for having a goalie whos playing.

I might consider this deal IF I was desperately in need of goaltending in a one year pool where you were offering Turco AND Jokinen.

Props if you can pull off your thievery though.

She\'s going to think you\'re a \"Dirty Sanchez\". :laugh: (See Dobber\'s Donkey Punched article)
Seriously, unless she\'s dumb, you\'ll have to give up more.

i\'m basically going with the desperate times come for desperate measures approach on her. i mean jokinen isn\'t a bad player and she needs a goalie, if she wants turco i might do a turco and kozlov deal for crosby and see what happens. she considered a turco kozlov for hossa emery deal so it might work.

turco kozlov for crosby is insulting, the only way you are going to get crosby from this person with these kinds of deals are if you are massively taking advantage of her ignorance. if that is the case, then you don\'t need to ask us what we think here, because honestly, none of these deals are good deals for the person with crosby.

not to put crosby down or anything, he is awesome which is y i want him but at the same time you can\'t put him on a pedastal in which he is completely unattainable unless I AM THE ONE IGNORANT and giving up the world for him. i agree that huet and jokinen will be ripping her off but when 4/10 categories count in a H2H and you have an injured goalie and a backup goalie and no starter to pick up from FA you don\'t have a choice but to try to get a goalie unless she wants to keep forfeiting 4 categories per week until emery gets back to game form. because as of next week if emery is unhealthy, i can play denis for 1 game and he can let in 100 goals, and i\'ll STILL WIN THE 4 CATEGORIES! because she\'ll have no stats in it.
also another thing is if this trade is accepted, the tables turn, SHE becomes the one with a strong goalie tandem and has a chance of winning categories, and she doesn\'t lose too much pointwise because she\'d still have jokinen. because its H2H format, the total points in the end by the player doesn\'t really matter. if crosby gets 10 points in one game which contributes to his 125+ points this season, those 10 points go only towards that one week, and then the next week hes back to 0 for me.
