Barking at the net
Open up your nearest garbage can and start eating coffee grounds and apple cores. That's the gist of it.

I never said September and there's only 1 team in central Canada. Get a map of Canada and poke a hole in the central with a pencil. Spin it around like a top, tell me again there's 3 teams that just got stabbed.

Quite accurate. Not as painful as the International threads, but about 2nd worst thread on the board in September.
Maybe we can out do the ranting in this one?

No it's the center of the universe....for confirmation just ask anyone from Toronto
Would love him in Toronto but we'd have to give up Gardiner+ and I don't know if we could afford to do that, especially if the + is significant. I'm not saying Gardiner and Trouba have equal trade value (they don't) but moving Gardiner leaves a huge gap down the left side after Rielly.
Winnipeg needs a LD that can play right now back as part of the package or it makes no sense for them to trade him. I wonder if they can make a Fowler-based trade with the Ducks? They could help Anaheim out with the finances so that they can re-sign Lindholm and Rakell, and Cheveldayoff could then move Trouba to the highest bidder? Just spitballing here.
This is great.

Arguably, if Morrissey shows over the next few weeks that he an capably hold down an LHD spot, perhaps that opens up what the Jets are willingly to take back positionally for trading Trouba (i.e., Chevy may wait this out until Dec 1)
Meaning no slight to Morrissey, but I doubt your GM's going to count on a rookie to fill Trouba's role this year. Not in that murderous hellhole of a division.

Very true. I mean, most Jets fans already see him as the fix after a couple of preseason games (although he has been fantastic), but you don't patch the hole that easily. If he can stick around for a season and, you know, be a #4 or something close to that, we should be happy. Anything on top of that is a plus. But no matter what he is, the likely outcome is that he won't be playing Trouba's tough minutes. Someone capable of PKing and taking on some of the tougher matchups would be needed, and that's what I would look for. Would I pay Trouba for that? Depends on the player, obviously. But even a short term fix would be welcomed.
The Jets are not a contender this year. We're not looking at him as an equal replacement for Trouba.
D. Hamilton for Trouba
Just to gauge value here. How much would Winnipeg have to add if anything, to make a Dougie Hamilton for Jacob Trouba trade to work? Probably wouldn't make sense for Treliving to look at, but if Trouba came in at a long term deal under $5 million, it might hold some weight.

We will keep Hamilton especially since he just had a career year with us after a slow as hell start...
Trouba's value is very low right now, to get Hamilton they would have to add Ehlers or something of equal or higher value.

I think Hamilton is a better player and fits our needs more than Trouba ever will, but this is going to take a **** ton of flak.
