It's a different trade. You need to give a valid reason as to why you feel this is not a suitable trade based on the following criteria:
1. Pens has stated and shopped openly for a 92+ goaltender. Currently, this is the only one on the market, despite Caps insisting he's shopping Brodeur, though I feel he is not.
2. Pens is upgrading his net with the 4th/5th highest ranked goalie in the league, and is upgrading all other positions in the same deal, at the cost of 1 supreme player who is underperforming.
You can hate the trade all you want, but if you are going to reject it, the rejection has to be valid or I'm throwing it out. I've maintained the stance we aren't going to fuck people here, but we're also going to not fuck over people trying to enjoy the site.
The trade that was rejected is NOT this trade.
This trade is modified, includes 1 less participating trade partner, and has conditional pick attached. Be clear with your rejection, if you do, in fact, reject the trade.

I reject this trade merely on the basis of goalie hoarding, so this reject doesn't officially count.
Should move Barrasso immediately at this point.

I think the trade, as it is now, is acceptable. Joe Sakic 94 F 16 YR -> Grant Fuhr 92 G 7 YR (Fuhr just won the Jennings, is very high rated goaltender on a site that lacks excellence in goaltending, but Sakic has a decade left on him, though he is seriously underperforming) Craig MacTavish 84 F 4 YR -> Rick Tocchet 84 F 9 YR (Everyone makes that trade, I don't care who you are, and it adds some value back to the years lost on Sakic for Fuhr) Mike Ricci 84 F 14 YR -> Alexander Daigle 83 F 13 YR (Again, every single one of you makes that trade, if not, you're lying to yourself) Petr Svoboda 81 D 8 YR -> 2000, 2001, or 2002 Conditional 1st Round Pick It's clear what Pittsburgh Penguins wants is a Stanley Cup. As he said, this would give him a 90+ player at every single position on his team, and should be a clear path to Cup contention for the next 7 years. If he wins a cup, he gets everything he wanted. If he doesn't, then when Sakic has 9/8/7 years left in this league, he gets to pick up a first round pick, and even gets to determine which draft year he wants it in. That means, every season, he gets to see where the Oilers finish in the standings, and if they suck, and he hasn't won a cup, he gets to cash in on a high draft pick. Svoboda is the gamble offer on that part of the trade, and the dude isn't even cracking Pens top 6 D. I accept this trade. But with what Caps said, I agree, if Pens/Oilers wanted to do this for one of Sakic or Forsberg, I would be fine with either. Forsberg is more palatable because he's 1 overall less, but either way, it's still a fine enough trade.

no one with a better goalie has replied to my inboxes You have Barrasso........ Fuhr isn’t even the starter in Edmonton if he was his numbers would be worse. He has been starting Potvin. And for whatever reason in this league if you go through the stats the backup has better numbers than the starters. Edmonton wants this trade because he knows his team is fucked in 3 years if he doesn’t trade one of his goalies. Look at his retirements coming up. If you’re wanting Fuhr you shouldn’t be having to give up your highest rated guy to a team who isn’t even starting him. He’s taking advantage of you when you should have him by the balls.

I would accept if the conditions were removed from the pick.
Its not TOO terrible, since half Oiler's team will have retired by the time the draft happens. But I think cup or not they should get the pick, cause with no pick this trade WOULD be terrible.
