  • Veto this trade yes or no?

    I'm just wondering what are the requirements for a trade to be vetoed?

    I will give you a few examples with numbers and you can just answer by entering the number (or explanation if wanted)

    1. One guy is obviously getting more than the other. But the trade will obviously help out both teams.

    2. One guy is obviously getting more than the other. But the trade has great potential to help out the other team too. (i.e. gives away a really good player for a goalie who is in the dog house but has the potential). In other words, the other owner is trying to restructure his team or something (intent is there).

    3. One guy is obviously getting more than the other because the other doesn't know better (intent is there but it’s taking advantage).

    4. One guy is just getting rid of his players.

    What if its Toskala for Lidstrom. The basis for this is Toskala is going to a team who has no clear number one and is losing each week because he doesn't meet the requirements and thinks Toskala is worth more than his stats show. And giving up Lidstrom, who isn't having, or most likely isn't going to have as good of a season as usual (but still will be a great player for any team), doesn't apparently kill his offence and MAY (no guarantee) give him a chance to save his goalie stats and get back into the game before its too late.

      ok, i deal with this in my league. My stance is this: I dont think any trade should be vetoed. If two managers want to trade, be it whomever for whomever else, then let them trade. Its not your trade, its not your team, who gives a rats. This is fantasy hockey is it not? I mean, my basis is this, if somebody want to trade away player A and get player B, or players B's, or whatever, OBVIOUSLY both mangers have to THINK they trade will be worth it to them right? ORRRRR they wouldn't have proposed or accepted the trade in the first place right??? I mean come on, if you could wheel and deal these guys for that guy, or that guy for this goalie, WHATEVER, then would you not? I mean, isn't that the point in trading?? To re-structure your team, or do whatever you want? At the same time you wouldnt propose that crazy@$$ trade in the first place if you didnt think it would be worth it to you, would you have?? The two teams who want to do that trade should be allowed to do that trade. Thats just my stance

        The trade veto should only be used when someone is being seriously taken advantage of, or, more importantly, when 2 managers collude together with a lopsided trade to make one team awesome.
        Right now I have a trade pending: Price for Giguere and Zetterberg.
        I have a feeling it's going to get voted down.
