  • Ribiero or Koivu, Backstrom or Eberle?

    Jim C by Jim C . Feb 1, 2013 10:31 AM . Permalink

    I have some deals in the works but need some feedback. I imagine that Koivu will get more points on the top line than Ribs will get, but Ribs gets me more PIM's and seems to be the only Cap scoring. Should I make the trade and take him for Koivu?

    Also, I think I can get either Backstrom (C) or Eberle straight up for Fleury (G). Which would you rather have?

    Thanks!

      Koivu and Eberle are my choices. But also it depends what position you need?

        Koivu and Ribs are both C's so that's a wash. I already have 3 goalies so losing MAF is not a huge deal... I can easily ride Rinne and Price and get all my minimum starts. So getting either Backstrom or Eberle for MAF is just an add-on to my skaters. I am not looking for position.

        The reason I'm entertaining Ribiero is for PPP and PIM's, vs. Koivu. That, and the fact that I am a Caps fan and am looking for a reason to read their stats!
