  • HUGE OVIE TRADE!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Alex by Alex . Oct 18, 2009 6:31 PM . Permalink

    Here is the trade that another team and I settled after more then a dozen counter offers back and forth. I'm in a 12 team H2H league.

    Follow me here and see if my logic was sound.

    I traded him
    Alex Ovechkin 9G 7A +9 4PIM 5PPP 0SHP 2GWG 61SOG
    David Krejci 0G 3A 0+/- 0PIM 0PPP 0SHP 0GWG 12SOG
    Dennis Wideman 1G 1A -2 0PIM 1PPP 0SHP 0GWG 10SOG

    I got
    Jonathan Toews 1G 4A +6 0PIM 1PPP 1SHP 0GWG 17SOG
    Rick Nash 3G 7A +3 6PIM 2PPP 1SHP 1GWG 24SOG
    Duncan Keith 2G 3A +3 4PIM 1PPP 1SHP 0GWG 19SOG

    Ovie is the only real player I losing here as the other 2 are dead weight so far. I'm hoping for Krejci to not be able to repeat last years performance. And hoping when Hossa comes back he will be on a regular line or at least PP line with Toews and his numbers will go up. And we all know Nash is a beast, and he is on a roll so far this year with better linemates.

    What I'm losing for Ovies goals and assists I'm hoping Toews and Nash can combine to come close. I will still get a huge boost in the +/-, PiM, and SHP which are 3 stats I lost each of my first 2 weeks.

    What do you think?

      I'm not sure why anyone would trade Ovechkin.

        kinda awkward to trade such a strong fantasy player so early on in the year.. trading the big names is never bad when you're getting something you need.. but at this point in the season you definitely didn't need to make the trade.. the guy you're trading with would have accepted the trade if you offered in February instead of October... and you'd be able to say whether or not Nash will have 90+ or Toews 70+.. i would say.. hold on to the guy.. then trade him when you need a star goalie.. or a star defender to make up the games..

      if your saying nash is goin to get what hes on pace for ovi is on pace for 2 points a game...

      if your saying nash is goin to get what hes on pace for ovi is on pace for 2 points a game and thats 160 ....ovie will get about 120 and krejci will get about 40 -50 so thats 160 - 170 .. u can also probly find a good FA guy that will probly hit 60 and drop krejci but anyways nash will get in the high 80s and towes will get probly 70 kane or hossa its doesnt matter who he plays with i personally like kane better but ya that is 150-160 so your losing the trade, and ovie will get u 500 shots when nash and toews combined may get you 400 shots if your lucky ...never trade alex ovechkin!!

        You're a tool. I've never trusted a leafs fan to know whats what with hockey. You've been subjected to AHL level hockey for so long that you have no clue what the big boys league is like.
        The biggest fish (Ovie) is King. You can't replace a king with 2 knights!!!!

        Take your blindfold off and realize that there's more stat categories than just points. Shots will always be yours if you have Ovie, goals and points has no substitute for Ovie.

        I can see a lot of the "back and forth" you've been having with everyone on this issue. It just goes to prove that helping a leafs fan is like helping a retard out of his helmet. He'll come out swinging but have no idea what he's saying or doing.

        Good luck in the season, retard

      dude you're an idiot Alex. the point of making a trade is to make you team better. You traded by far the best fantasy hockey player. you're also assuming toews and nash have career years. nash has never had 90 pts and toews has never had 70.

      Even if you only gave up Ovechkin, I would think this was a bad trade.
