the one on the right for sure. she looks like a real slut and she knows it and she likes it. the one in the middle looks like she has no idea what to do.

Patrick Sharp had no issues bringing his wife/friends! Maybe Kesler told them to stay home! LOL

IMO it depends on a lot of factors.

How many players are kept each year
What stat catagories are counted
Is there a min number of D needed on the team
Are you still trying to win this year or tanking and building for the future

In the current keepers pool I'm in where we only count points I wouldn't make that trade
Gaborik is roughly a PPG player and would get picked up in the first round in any year where as PK is still un proven points wise and could probably be picked up in the middle rounds of the yearly draft, and you're expected to give up 3 rounds on top of that
But then again, in my pool the protected spots are usually reserved for elite scorers and franchise goalies. There are only a handful of D that get protected every year and these are the obvious recent norris nominees and/or winners (ie lidstrom, keith, doughty etc...)

giving up gaborik and a 3rd to get subban and a 6th?..

how many ppl/spots are in your keeper pool?

14 people in my pool.

6 keepers + 1 extra keeper that you acquire through a trade.

Currently my keepers are Gaborik, John Carlson, Taylor Hall, Matt Duchene, Paul Stastny, Henrik Lundqvist.

I also have another D prospect coming up (Oliver Ekman-Larsson) but if he plays 60 games, I have to either drop him or keep him as a keeper rather than a prospect.

I've had Gabs for years now and he's only produced two good seasons without significant injury so I'm looking to unload him but there's no question that healthy, he's an elite forward.

Young players with star potential are extremely valuable in keeper leagues. Taylor Hall, for example, cost me Iginla, Visnovsky and Varlamov (all guys I didn't really want to keep because they're old). If he turns out to be awesome, I have a star player for 10+ years.

Oh by the way, scoring in my league is balanced for D-men so that an elite defenseman is just as valuable if not more than elite forwards.

Forward +/- is not calculated but it is for D-men. Also, all D-men points are multiplied by 1.5.

Therefore, when Lidstrom scored 80 points, he's equally as valuable as Ovechkin scoring 120 and so on.

That's why I'm betting on Carlson being the future of the Caps blueline. I also think OEL is a top prospect...comparable to Lidstrom in the future.

I would do it.

If you guys are only keeping 6 or 7 players I think there are more viable options, especially if you're already keeping a D man in Carlson. Since forwards are typically going to get you more points than a Dman I'd save your keeper spots for PPG forwards. Besides, I think there are a lot of young underrated Dman (letang, yandle, jack johnson etc...) that you can try and pick up in next years draft instead of giving up 3 rounds and one of your keepers. Is the guy that's offering you this trade even planning on keeping PK?

No one in my pool is stupid. Letang, Yandle, Johnson are all probably being kept for next year. We've been doing this for almost 10 years now. Everyone knows the formula.

Keep in mind...14 players...7 players each...that's 98 NHL players off the table.

The guy offering the trade has one of the worst teams. He would definitely keep PK.

Didn't see your post about Dman getting 1.5x the amount of points.
That would make me more likely to make the trade.
