Thread: What kinds of names could Kessel and/or Henrik Sedin fetch?

  1. #1

    What kinds of names could Kessel and/or Henrik Sedin fetch?

    Trade deadline is on the 8th and I was in 1st place back in the first week of January, now on a 7 week winless streak (1 tie, 6 losses) and I really want to try and get top 4 so I'm a high seed (8 team playoffs).

    I'm really unhappy with Henrik Sedin lately as he seems to barely get points anymore and gets a two or three game stretch where he'll score a few points and go in a big dry spell again.

    Although I'd rather keep kessel I think I could get a really good return for him, plus if I include Henrik Sedin into a trade with him I think I could bring in some more good assets for my team. What kinds of names could I expect to get from trading either kessel or Sedin, and also how much return is reasonable to expect if I were to package both of them together?

    Also, any opinions as to what I should be doing for my team to prepare for the playoffs? I clinch a berth for sure after tomorrow night. I know my goaltending is a train wreck lately once I think past Rinne, but what else should be improved through trades here?

    Sorry for the essay lol, but thanks in advance!

    I'd keep Sedin.... But if you package him with Kessel I don't see why you couldn't get a goalie like Quick or Howard.... Personally, I'd try and turn Kessel into a goalie...

    Sedin AND Kessel for Quick?? That seems like way too much to give up. I'd think one of them for one of the goalies you listed is pretty close.

    I've been looking at going for Giroux lately and that same team has Howard Hiller and Halak for goalies. If I offer him Kessel and Sedin for Giroux and one of his three goalies, which of the three goalies would be good in this offer? And if I want Giroux and Howard, how much more would I have to add to Kessel and Sedin to be a decent offer?

    When you have less goalie stats, they are the categories that if you can win them - win you the week. Well at least in a H2H environment. So goalies, in my experience, tend be a bit more expensive.

    In November I dealt Kessel straight up for Rinne. It still looks like a good deal for each of us.

    I've been thinking of having to do something with Briere, absolutely agree with the aggrivating thing!

    And that was a fantastic job on your part getting Rinne Cowtown!

    I think I might be getting Pavelec for Pavelski, I was talking to the manager of that team earlier today and he gave it some thought and is letting me know later. I believe Sedin should be able to bring in a good goaltender, not a top tendy but higher up the list like a bobby lu or someone a bit on the lesser side of him.

    Also looking for a good FA pickup, Ryder, J.Staal, Dupuis, ehrhoff, williams, doan, read and purcell are guys I've been looking at. Who would be best to take? I'm leaning towards staal ryder and purcell but not sure who would be the best guy. There's virtually zero goalies in FA so I'm improving that through trade hopefully..
