  • Miller trade

    Dynasty league, only W and SO count.

    I was offered Miller for Anderson straight up. I am not in contention this season.

    Could really use some advice here. Anderson has 25 wins (25!) and seems to start every game. Miller has only 12 and I think Enroth might make a case to start in the next few years. But its Ryan Miller. I look at his career numbers and I can't help but shake my head that I am hesitating to pull the trigger.

    Is Miller going to snap out of it? Which team is going to be better in the next few seasons?

    Opinions please and thanks!

    Maybe also of note is that I have Price and Reimer as well. But I can only protect two goalies.

      I would do it. Purely for their value in the long run.

      Buffalo's been hit by the injury bug pretty hard and their defense core hasn't had much time to gel together considering injuries to their top 3 (Erhoff, Myers, Regher), 2 of which are new players on the team. But all 3 have undeniable talent. I suspect Buffalo will be a much better team next year when they're healthy and have more team chemistry.

      Ottawa on the other hand, while they may be a good team now, I question their future. Especially with rumors of this being Alfie's last season.

      Just a thought though, regardless of whether you do the trade or not, I suggest not keeping Reimer for next season. As a Leafs fan, we all had high hopes for him after his amazing performance last season, but he's been disappointing after returning from injury.
