Trade Help

by bauerspeed17 on Jan 19, 2012 7:31 PM EST

Trade offer:

I trade Jimmy Howard, Krejci (or Lucic) for Ryan Miller and Steve Stamkos

I am probably thinking way too much about this offer and may be an idiot for not accepting it but here is what I am thinking:

I’m really hesitant to pull the trigger on this deal because I’m first in wins, GAA, and shutouts and second in SV% and I am afraid that I will lose out on these categories if i part with Howard

I am currently 10/12 in goals scored at 102. Teams above me have 105, 108, 108, 110, 113, 115. Do you think with Stamkos and my roster that I would be able to pass these teams in goals. Any advice would be much appreciated.

FYI: Previously offered Miller and Fleish for Mikka

My team

I say YES

if this is standard league scoring
Skaters G, A, +/-, PIM, PPP, SOG
Goalies W, GAA, SV%, SHO
these leagues favor scoring slightly more
if you don’t start Miller you lose a few wins and maybe a couple SHO
Kipper and Rask should keep the goalie stats fairly well
I would let them slide while improving scoring until Miller and Sabres get things settled down, maybe?
you might think of trading for some help on the blueline though.

I could go either way on this one… I think your goaltending should be able to hang on even if you downgrade from Howard to Miller, he has to get better at some point. On the flipside, I feel like you should be able to make up the goals with the roster that you currently have.

So I’d probably lean towards not making the deal but I don’t think it would be a bad if you did make the deal.
