On another note, I have 9 keeper slots and 10 players I'd like to keep. The guys on the bubble are Krug and Karlsson. I'm open to offers of a pick for either, or a swap for another player I'd definitely want to keep. Not interested in a Dallas offer for Seguin, lesser player spam has no value to me, obviously. Ya, Ive got some legit keepers I'll need to deal for picks or hope to redraft them. Anyone looking to beef up their roster I think guys like OV, Burns, Stone and can be had for first rounders. Might be dumb for going with some exciting youngster rather than current studs.

Stupid autocorrect. I meant to say: Happy to be on board and can't wait to make OC cry. Didn't you inherit Shupe's team? That's like Chiarelli's successor coming out cocky. Without McDavid.

Hopefully you will be more of a Brian Lawton type GM.

Hopefully you will be more of a Brian Lawton type GM. I'm halfway through A Moveable Feaster: How To Win Things and Stuff in the NHL - by Jay Feaster. It will be the Bible.

If you just let those guy go on the assumption that they won't be around until December, you're golden.

Hopefully you will be more of a Brian Lawton type GM. I just looked at your roster. It's like you drafted based on the first post of the Around the League thread...

Think he’ll look good on a line with Malkin & Wheeler Anyone interested in Evander Kane, Giordano or big fat Buff?

Essentially a first round pick in any league for a 10th rounder... I'm just going to stick with my younger guys. I still have Burns... Arguably the best dman in fantasy hockey. First offer for 1st rounder takes him. Planning on just keeping Dahlin.

We're they diagnosed with superaids and I missed the update?

We're they diagnosed with superaids and I missed the update? Yes. All of your players now have superaids. You should trade them to me for Esa Lindell. I keep looking at the trade offers where you ask for my first pick in light of two thoughts: - If he's worth a first round pick, why aren't you protecting him? - If I want to use my first round pick on him, odds are pretty good he'll still be there at 4, so why would I give you my pick in what effectively lets you keep 10 instead of 9 players of that calibre? Now, if you want to offer them to me for later picks, I might be more interested....

Now, if you want to offer them to me for later picks, I might be more interested.... My team is just transitioning... The curse of good picks. Since I'm protecting guys like Petterson, Dahlin, Boeser, Tkachuk... Ill get what I can from some studs while their value is still up. Burns is the top dman unless you want to make a case for Karlsson. I'll trade him for a first only or I'll keep him and move others. Id say getting Burns for what essentially is a pick in the 90's is a pretty good deal depending on your d depth... But not all agree obviously. Stone has some pretty high value too, I think, and I've put him out there for 2nds and 3rds, but nada. There's a bunch of teams out there where burns and stone would be a pretty good upgrade from their keepers... But I guys guys really love their picks! The highest pick takes stone or Boeser if anyone is interested.

There's a bunch of teams out there where burns and stone would be a pretty good upgrade from their keepers... But I guys guys really love their picks! The highest pick takes stone or Boeser if anyone is interested. Burns is a very good pick - hard to argue that he was the best D last year. Not only was he the top scoring D, he puts up really good numbers in hits and blocks for a guy who also scores. The big hitters and blockers score more like Carlo. But I can see him taking a step back in plus-minus and scoring as they find a way to balance him and EK now that EK is in the fold for the long haul (and he's younger...). If my indifference means you keep Burns and release, say, Boeser instead, and I can snap up Boeser at some point with an appropriate pick, that may actually work better for my team since I have to rebuild from what Shupe left me. And I never really think of it as a pick in the 90s with a keeper league. To me, it's still the first round. As long as there's a Jack Hughes in play every year, it's not really the same as saying the best 90 are already gone. There's also the fact that others are in the same situation as you - guys who have 15 players better than 7-9 on my list are going to have to give up something of value. Still, Burns for a first makes sense based on last yaer's stats.

They were together on the pp. Just think of how Pasta carried bergy's lazy but and inflated his stats.
