Rumor: Jets shopping Trouba

[Whileee]

Detroit is the obvious destination. Winnipeg does not want salary back for obvious reasons.

To Detroit: Trouba
To Winnipeg: Hronek, both Detroit's and NYI's second round picks

Enough? Not enough?

Not bad, in my view, but I think the Jets might look for a 1st as a centerpiece. The Flyers' #11 overall would be enticing.

But I like Hronek...

 

[StreetHawk]

What?



They were 3 mil apart before the hearing and the arbiter chose 5.5 mil.

When you go to arbitration one side is nearly always ridiculously low and the other ridiculously high.

Yep. Wish it was more like mlb where the arbitrator chooses one of the two numbers. Forces both sides to be realistic otherwise they risk going with the other sides numbers.

Man the jets two years ago was look how strong their D is. Now it’s myers hitting ufa and Trouba on the block. Just shows how quickly things can change.

I wonder if Trouba has his heart set on a particular location and will pursue UFA status to help that cause.
If so he'll fetch the return of a primo rental, whatever that equates to in the summer rather than around deadline day.

I can promise you that nobody from the Wings board will consider this remotely close to reasonable. If this is the cost, Detroit shouldn't buy.

Nylander for a signed Trouba!

If he comes in at 7mil sure. Reports are that he has asked for up to 9? crazy

yeah trouba wanted 7 and the jets offered 4

now he can accept the arbitrate himself (6.5mil?) right to UFA

Ohhh... I thought that was for this upcoming negotiation and that’s why he’s on the block.

If Travis Hamonic got traded for mid first + 2 second round picks, I'm pretty sure price for Trouba is going to be even a bit higher than my suggestion.

I don't see Detroit trading #6OA...

Nylander for a signed Trouba!

Makes too much sense. I wonder if the trade could be expanded to move Zaitsev as well?

 

[Whileee]

Makes sense for the Leafs. Try to explain why the Jets would want Nylander at a $7M cap hit.

 

[Liferleafer]

No, he's heading to the Island....he misses Lou.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Ahhh yes the yearly Trouba contract talk.... Hopefully he signs a VERY long contract this offseason so we dont have to hear about him again

 

[jgimp]

I thought Trouba didn't want to be in Canada

I could only see Toronto as a destination that he would agree to seeing as it is close to Detroit and his family and is a big market which he is looking for. But even so I doubt he would go there long term.
Florida, TBay, Detroit are my top three and Philly, Pittsburgh and NYR rounding out the rest.

Trouba for kessel and something g

Trouba for kessel and something g

The very last thing the Jets need is Kessel. The Jets' RW looks like this...

Wheeler
Laine
Roslovic
Appleton

Edit : N/m, I see it was clarified.

I think it's already been established that Detroit won't include Hronek in a trade for Trouba. Cholowski might be more realistic.

Maybe Yzerman works something out where the Wings swing a trade with Tampa to take Callahan's cap hit and JT Miller, and then flip Miller+ to the Jets for Trouba.

 

[jgimp]

Yeah, they were 3 million apart before the hearing and settled at 5.5. As @Whileee said it was reported the Jets were wanting 4 and Trouba wanted 7.

Should have paid him 7 long term

 

[StreetHawk]

Trouba in essence has a ntc as he can file for arbitration if he doesn’t like where he gets dealt to and hit ufa in 2020. He’s come this far.

Is he a rental or a guy who gets signed for term by the acquiring team?

 

[Echo Roku]

Flyers. Rangers. Wings. Panthers. Avs. Sabres. Ducks.

As an Avs fan, he’d be a nice to have, not a need

 

[MardyBum]

Makes too much sense. I wonder if the trade could be expanded to move Zaitsev as well?

What are Nylander's bonuses like going forward? That might dissuade Chevy alone. He's not a fan of them.

NHL Trade Rumor: Jacob Trouba to the Detroit Red Wings

 

[MardyBum]

Should have paid him 7 long term

That was on a 1 year arb deal, not long term. If we could have gotten Trouba on a long term deal at 7 million it'd have been done already lol.

 

[danielpalfredsson]

I'd imagine they only want picks/prospects/ELC players.

I think they end up with a 10-15th pick and a prospect. Don't think they get a huge return here, but it's better than keeping him for one more season and losing him to free agency after that. They need cap space so clearing 5M+ for futures has added value.

If Travis Hamonic got traded for mid first + 2 second round picks, I'm pretty sure price for Trouba is going to be even a bit higher than my suggestion.

Travis Hamonic, the guy with term and a cap hit of $3.85M? Compared to Trouba in need of a new contract that will cost probably double Hamonic's? Put it this way, the picks I don't care about, but Hronek is likely a non-starter for the Wings at this point.
