  • I veto'd this trade.

    Player One Gets ~ Patrick Kane and Dan Ellis

    Player Two Gets ~ Corey Perry and Jonas Hiller

    This is a keeper league (So Hiller's injury isn't a big factor) and there's 16 teams and two starting goalies each (32 goalies min), it's a head to head league and they are 14 categories and 5 of them are goalie categories, so as you can see goalies are worth a lot.

      I'm glad you are not in any of my leagues. Veto is to stop collusion, clearly none on this trade, and stop player dumping, clearing not the case here. Sure the side getting Hiller and Perry win, but not by a ton. Are you sure Ellis will not have a big year next year? Are you sure Hiller will not continue his issues? No you are not. So why veto this trade? And 5 of 14 categories is not goalie heavy. I'm in one where 7 of 13 are goalie stats, now that is goalie importance.

      it depends on how many keepers you can keep ot how many managers.

      To me, this is clearly a trade of Kane for Perry.
      The other Goalies are just added.

      So i think the Veto is not wise.

      Sometimes you got to let the players make their own decisions.
      Not worry about a Veto, because a trade is 1% lopsided.

      Perry for kane is an even trade i think.

      Bad Veto here.
      Goalies may be worth alot, but so are the offensive player.
      You know what you are getting with Wingers & Centers.
      Goalies are like Pitchers in baseball.
      Besides a select few, they are too unpredictable.
      Just like with Pitt goalie.
      other 2 goalies are not even worth being kept.
      I can think of better goalies.

        There is also times where for example Kane & Perry.

        You try to trade perry to get kane to no avail.
        Sometimes you have to offer more to get THAT player you need.

        I did that sometimes.
        I am losing in my keeper league to injuries.
        So I offered Some good players & a descent keeper for a HUGE keeper.

        Sometimes there is a reason for a trade.

        Just got to be cool with it.

        Managers are responsible for their team.
        Let them make their own decisions if must be.
        As long as there is not Cheating,colision & a far out crazy trade like Kessler for Tanguay or something in that nature.

      There is nothing wrong with this trade. It's definitely not cheating, but more importantly, it's not even obviously unfair. Goalies are so unpredictable and there's no telling what Ellis will do in Anaheim. If I owned Hiller in a keeper league, I would be a little worried right now too.

      Kane and Perry are both 80 point wingers, so fair enough there. Hiller is obviously better than Ellis statistically, but hes hurt for an unknown amount of time. The guy is willing to lose a better goalie to get one that will play. Nothing wrong here.
