I suggest we start considering trades based on position. Consider this: Pronger is the best D in the game - rated 84. Thus, he is the BEST so lets say 10/10 for Defence. Ovechkin/Crosby are the best forwards at 89. As the BEST, thus, 10/10 for offense. Thus, Pronger, the best at his position, should be equal to Ovechkin, the best at his position, because they are both the best. THIS IS BASED ON RATINGS, NOT COUNTING AGE FACTORS AND SHIT.
The ratings are fucked, and we all know that, so I propose we start looking at trades this way. I know everyone will start yelling at me about how this makes no sense, because I know a few of you have problems with thinking outside of the concrete ratings box, but it makes A LOT of sense when you think about it. A LOT of sense.
If people need me to clarify this, let me know.

Yes, I agree with what you are saying. An 84 forward isn't the same as an 84 defenseman

Related, but not the reason for this - Note to GMs. Stop sending me offers of 84 overall forwards for Pronger.

it might get confusing though...and trust me i have had alot of ideas for Man NHL....i just think you might as well move the d-men's ratings up because if you say Crosby for Pronger is fair i mean no way

Crosby, Ovechkin, Iginla and Thortton are the best forwards at 89 its not just crosby and Ovie.

What sense does that make? They are fine as is, as long as GMs think about them in the right way: D are comparable to D and F are comparable to F. And as I said, RATINGS-WISE Crosby IS comparable to Pronger. What makes you whine about "is fair i mean no way" is that crosby is about 20 and Pronger is about 40....other than that - yes, it is equal.

I still don't think your ever going to trade a Pronger for even an 87 forward though. But I understand what you are saying
