heatley for zetterberg/phaneuf?

Its a non keeper league. It's a yahoo fantasy hockey league but amongst friends with our own point system. Goals = 2, Assist = 1.5, PPP = 0.5, +/- = 0.75, Shots = 0.25, SHP = 1. I'm having a really tough time with this trade. I really really want Heatley but is it too much to give up? Zetterberg has been in a little bit of a slump but he will probably pull out of it. What do you guys think? I'm leaning towards taking the trade right now, but there is no good D free agents for me to pick up. Here are the point totals for the year in our league Heatley = 99.75 Zetterberg = 69.00 Phaneuf = 46.50Here's my team C A. Yashin (NYI - C) 60 62.50 C J. Spezza (Ott - C) 83.50 LW A. Frolov (LA - LW) 72.75 LW H. Zetterberg (Det - LW) 69.00 RW P. Sykora (Anh - RW) 37.50 RW M. St. Louis (TB - RW) 41.50 D C. Pronger (Edm - D) 33.00 D A. Zhitnik (NYI - D) 41.25 D D. Phaneuf (Cgy - D) 46.50 D R. Whitney (Pit - D) 18.00 BN A. MogilnyDTD (NJ - RW) 33.75 BN P. Demitra (LA - C,RW) 85.00 BN T. Vanek (Buf - LW) 42.75 BN J. Stoll (Edm - C) 57.75 IR R. NashIR (Cls - LW) 0.75 G D. Aebischer (Col - G) GBench 26.20 G M. Biron (Buf - G) GBench 9.00 I'm drooling with the prospect of having a Spezza/Heatley combo to go with my Frolov/Demitra combo. If St. Louis and Nash (my first two picks) were doing anything like I thought they'd be doing, I'd be kicking some ass. As of right now, I'm first out of 16, but will be second after tonight. The person who is involved with the proposed trade is in 5th or 6th. I think that should be all the info for you guys!

I would make the trade because a goal is worth 2 points and Heatley is a goal scorer! I'm assuming there is a reasonable free agent left to replace Phaneuf.

Not really. Thats the problem. He's dropping Rafalsky to make room to pick up Phaneuf, so if I'm lucky I should be able to snag him. Any other thoughts on my team?

If he's dropping Rafalski, why don't you re-propose an offer of Zetterberg/Phaneuf for Heatley/Rafalski? Then you guarentee you get Rafalski.I'd do the trade, regardless.
