halfsharkalligatorhalfman Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 I usually don't trade one elite player for two very good ones. RWs and LWs are rare and Centers are easy to come by. Morrow's a solid fantasy winger, and Sakic is a good Center but Alfreddsson is a top ten skater. The trade will end up hurting your team because you are gonna lose elite production from one roster spot in exchange for decent production from two roster spots. Unless you have absolutly no depth (and since you say you would be loaded at Lw and C you sound like you have depth) I wouldn't do it. As to the league being dead, I guess its because everyone has already accepted the fact that I'm gonna run away with it. Sorry I'm so good at fantasy hockey.

NJDevs4978 Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Boy I had great timing trading Kuba, two days later Boucher is on IR for a month, so much for my D depth Anyone has a D or LW, I have C's and RW's available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevs4978 Posted December 14, 2007 Author Share Posted December 14, 2007 I just put up the archives of the first four Fantasy Hockey seasons on the league home page, you can access standings, rosters and draft results just by changing the year displayed above the standings (or hitting the 'All Time' link and picking a year).

Ah, thanks Has allow me to relive the devestation of losing in the last 4 days of the season 2 years ago. Then again my best placing so far. But anyway i think part of the lack of activity is due to the lack of any depth from waivers. So people may try a trade to get better, but there arent many options for team improvement. Though i havent looked at the other teams roster activity lately. Hopefully some others will pick it up some, as it really does effect the rest of the league.

Devils731 Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Ya, I really can't make any moves, my first 2 skater picks have missed most of the season and 1 is probably done for the year so it severly hurt my team and really hard for me to make any worthwhile offers to people as well.

redruM Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Broduer for Lundquist?? seriously?? I know when I traded Broduer it was a bade decision, but at least I got Malkin, Gaborik & a goalie!!! Lundquist??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devils731 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 It was a tough decision for me to make since Henrik has played so well but I worry that he hasn't had a whole good season yet and he has struggled for almost all of December. I guess I just felt more comfortable with Marty's consistency going forward but it wouldn't surprise me if Henrik has a better rest of the year compared to Marty. I don't expect that to be the case though. For my team, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter since my 2 best offensive players were hurt most of the year and one isn't coming back most likely.

Devils731 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 So far that trade is working out well for me from the Goaltender position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 (edited) That's why I usually hate lateral trades, they can really bite you in the ass...although I have to say I'm amused that Brodeur's been traded twice and both times it's killed the team trading him. My team would be pretty good if I didn't STILL have 25% of my roster on IR I wonder who if anyone will be the obstacle for Swede as he goes for back-to-back glory, he's led by an arm's length for about a couple months now.

redruM Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 you also gave up Gionta, Shanahan, and the top point getting dman Sergei Zubov. In case you forgot about that part of the deal.Hate to say it, but I think Lundqvist is a better goalie and he's on a better team....

aylbert Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 The Sworn Defenders have traded Alexander Ovechkin and Johan Holmqvist for Mats Sundin and Ryan Miller. Sworn Defenders, leading the leauge in goals scored, trade from their position of strength to significantly improve their goaltending hodge podge and massively improve their faceoff totals (17th out of 20).

NJDevs4978 Posted January 19, 2008 Author Share Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) Nice, two trades in two days of big-time players that are actually fair for both teams.
