What the actual ****? Why would they do this?

 

[26CornerBlitz]

Whoa! There's a surprise!

Why the hell would Tropp be waived?

 

[Lloydchristmas138]

Not a fan of this move. Hopefully he clears.

Not a Nolan guy?

worst Corsi REL on the team

 

[Sabreality]

bunk. don't like this move one bit.

 

[Dubi Doo]

Stupid move if we lose him.

 

[Myllz]

Not a Nolan guy?

Considering he's an interim coach and there's no GM right now, I don't like the idea of waiving assets that most likely won't clear just because the coach doesn't like him.

Yeah even so, that kid plays with grit and knows how to agitate. Makes us a slower team.

 

[Zip15]

That's surprising. My only guess is that they recognize what we're all seeing--that he gets lit up way too much--and don't think he has the ability to make it through an 82-game season. Still, I thought he may be a secondary or tertiary piece in a trade. I could see him getting claimed.

 

[OcAirlines]

Shame, really liked Tropp. Should have gotten some more time to get back to his game after the string of injuries he had.

 

[NotABadPeriod]

Tropp simply hasn't been all that good. If he gets claimed on waivers, so be it...not a big loss. In five years nobody is going to be like "can't believe we let this guy get away "

And he might very well clear, in which case good for the Amerks.

Don't have an issue with this. Tropp for D'Agostini might be a lateral move, or change for the sake of change, but that's not necessarily a bad move for this team that needs a culture shakeup.

 

[mgeise]

I'm pretty surprised by this, but I think he'll clear. I would have rather seen them send down a guy like Foligno to light a fire underneath him rather than potentially lose an asset with a little bit of value like Tropp. Or just send Adam, who's still waiver-exempt before he plays 10 games or spends 30 days here, back to Rochester.

I know Nolan was not happy with two goals Tropp was on the ice for in Phil. In nine games he minus eight.

 

[SabresFan26]

I don't know if anyone claims him. He is banged up and slower after his knee injury. He plays with grit but he has not been all that impressive thus far this year.

 

[Paxon]

I think it's clear he should be playing in the AHL right now until (unless?) he gets his game right. He might get claimed, but there's a pretty good chance he makes it through considering anyone claiming him has to keep him up and he's playing poorly.

True. Didn't think of it that way.

 

[jfb392]

I doubt anyone claims him.

 

[gallagt01]

I'm a fan of what Tropp can bring to the table, but he's been awful. If he gets claimed, so be it.

 

[Dubi Doo]

Admittedly i haven't watched too many games the past couple weeks. I had no idea he was playing so bad.

 

[kenfury]

I would have been upset if the 2011 Tropp got waived but this new and not improved version is not the same. I'm guessing his body is still not up to speed. I dont know if it is the knee or brain but he lacks a certian zip we all saw two years ago.

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

Tropp sucks. He's a dime a dozen AHL caliber player who doesn't belong on a NHL roster. Good riddance hopefully he gets claimed. I never liked him and I despised the fact he actually was on a line with Vanek.

 

[Jame]

Tropp won't get claimed...
Never really thought he had much of an NHL game...
