I kinda laughed him off and he has disliked me ever since. Hence "the wolf of wall street" tag for a few days lol he would hate our league then ….LOL I’ve got 5 on my NAHANA …… hockey knowledge is called cuffing the goalies and adding a 3rd for off nights… sheesh….. eff him….

Math Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Maybe one strategy given the goalie injury pandemic is to load your roster with goalies on IR, and when they all become healthy, organize a giant auction. Now I've got 4 goalies too, but I have starters that play like third AHLer and back-up goalies trying to steal the number one spot. So I'm still fcuked lol.

J0e Th0rnton Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 @FD19372That's the worst value i have ever seen anyone get in a McDavid trade lol You asked me for like the equivalent of 4 Stamkos(Crosby/Pettersson/Makar/Pavelski) and then you settled for basically 1 Stamkos straight up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I care what yours is? No. Do I care if others agree with you? No. I didn't just give you McDavid. II offered you McDavid +. I wanted value for McDavid.... was what I got, enough? Maybe, maybe not. He was on the trading block. You could have made me a decent offer. You didn't. Edited November 30, 2022 by FD19372 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilldoc Posted November 30, 2022 Author Share Posted November 30, 2022 I guess my question would be…. Why would the #2 player in the League be on the trade block to begin with? McDavid /Draisaitl / Vesi / Shester would be players whom I deem untouchable. You build your team around them….. Looking at the teams involved… if McDavid is truly on the trade block… the asking price would be starting for me , IMHO, at least 3 of the 4 (Ekblad / Stamkos / Zibby / or Hischier . Maybe Landenskog if willing to put him on IR. Just my humble thoughts and opinions… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my humble thoughts and opinions… In a banger league I get trading McDavid IF you're getting multiple people who have some scoring and a lot of peripherals. But in this case, nominal benefit in peripherals and a blood bath against in production categories. It's just... No understanding of it on any level. The offer J0e listed was vastly stronger. For this package, I stick with McDavid and it's not a close call 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If memory serves i got five for one, actually five for two because i threw him kempe as well. Anyway, the depth won me the cup, i may have won it with McJezus but i cant swear to it. So yeah, in a non keeper league i can see a case for trading him to fill multiple holes in the lineup or to own more than one cat going forward.

Maybe I would have considered trading 2 of those 4 players, but not all 4. I assumed the asking price was sky high and didn't bother to counter because when the feeling i got. Had the offer been a reasonable 2 of those 4 players I might have done business. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case, it's for a lesser McDavid and a barely better than waiver wire winger. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yave1964 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Trade between myself and the team known as my team He gets Ullmark Chabot Kunin I get Francoux Ekblad Hischier I have Georgiev so adding Francoux is something i have been trying to do for the last month. Ekblad is a bit of a risk because of health but if healthy he is a beast. Hischier is now firmly established as a star, top two or three faceoff man in the game today and scoring over a point a game. He gets Ullmark who is 13-1 with a microscopic goals against, Chabot who has struggled this year but has upside, and Kunin who is a nice multi cat role player.

You had holes to fill and filled them by getting multiple players for McDavid…. This trade actually weakened him…. Both in scoring and peripherals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
