Well, as I mentioned things were ugly in week one. The goaltending was subpar, the offense struggled and the defencemen didn't chip in much either. I went 2-9 in week one. If there is a glimmer of hope, I play the second last team in my league tonight who is actually my brother in law. His team is 3-8.

I made one trade:

Patrick Kane and Brian Campbell for Mike Comrie and Jason Pomenville, hopefully that will boost the offense.

I also have another trade waiting for the other owner to take a glimpse and decline or not...what would you do if offered this

Im offering

Eric Staal                                  FOR                           Patrice Bergeron

Ales Kotalik                                                                 Jaroslov Spacek

Vesa Toskala                                                               Mikka Kipprusoff

I think its a good deal maybe im wrong. This is also a team that also has Rick Dipietro and Manny Fernandez in goal. So with Toskala he wont be suffering too much.

In a twelve team league that plays two goalies on any given night...thats pretty good threesome

The move would give me Lundquist and and Kipprusoff. and Marc DenisI would consider Staal a big upgrade for him at Center and Kotalik is a 30-40 goal scorer waiting to happen for Spacek who is an over rated yet steady defenceman.

So the question is, do you take Staal for Kipprusoff?
