M. Lemieux & Shields for Leclair, Gagne, & Belfour?

[Trojanmojo]

I've just been offered John Leclair, Simon Gagne and Eddie the Eagle for Super Mario and Steve Shields. My goaltenders right now in this league are Felix Potvin, Roberto Luongo, Steve Shields and Mike Dunham so I feel I could use the help at G. I already have a ton of firepower on offense with forwards like Sundin, Yashin, Mogilny, Forsberg, Naslund, Morrison, Conroy, Bonk, Kovalchuk and Straka. Should I pull the trigger on this trade? Mario is hot now but is a serious health risk (as is Leclair I know). I feel like I'm getting 3 solid players for Mario and a throwin goalie.

even with the eagle's injury problem, this is a steal for you. you really think Super Mario is going to get in 55+ games? Look at LeClair this year. He is back healthy and productive. Upgrades all around. pull the trigger

Thanks...I went ahead and made the trade. I figure I should deal Mario now while he's hot and before he gets hurt. Take away Lemieux and Leclair and I still get Gagne and Belfour over Shields. I think Gagne will come on strong shortly and Belfour will give me a good #2 goalie behind Potvin. Now I can dump Dunham and contract to 3 goalies on my roster from 4 and get a bit more roster flexibility with my forwards. Thanks:)

Yep, I really think he will, and if he does, he's going to put up great numbers. I'd still do the trade, but also think Mario's back.
