Value of: Jacob Trouba (Mod warning OP)

[FireGorton]

Watch Chevy accept Skjei as part of a Laine trade.

Dude he landed the 21 overall pick and Pionk for Trouba.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

what do faceoffs have to do with anything?

I mean, I wouldn't exactly want a center who can only win 27% of his faceoffs...

 

[ffh]

I bet you wish the Jets had a guy like Trouba.

not for 8 million they dont.

 

[snowkiddin]

Neal Pionk and Ville Heinola.

 

[biturbo19]

The guy has a NMC and basically ended up in NY specifically because that's one of the few places he was willing to sign a deal in the first place. He's not going anywhere. And frankly...that shouldn't really be that big of a concern to NYR fans. He's a good, impactful, all-around Top-3 Defenceman, and the best thing they've got, despite some wonky analytics "insights".

Does Marner still play center? Something around Marner and Trouba? Although Rags probably don’t like Marners cap hit.

Does Lafreniere play Centre, kid would look great in a Leafs uniform? Leafs would be willing to part with Muzzin.

 

[jetsforever]

I'd love to get him back on the Jets, not for his play (although that would be useful too) but just to see the look on his face when he realises he's coming back to Winnipeg. Alas, he has an NMC.

His girlfriend is calling shots here, so offers have to be send to her.

 

[SML2]

It’s much harder to replace the skill of DeAngelo & Fox than it would be to find a shutdown Dman, and that can be found for a LOT less than 8 mill. Lindgren is a tough cookie, Miller is a monster, DeAngelo can throw hands with the best of them. I don’t think we’re too soft, and if we traded Trouba for a LD I’d be targeting a big, defensive-minded guy

I went from an ADA hater to a pro ADA guy, but he cannot "throw hands with the best of them" he's tough but he's small. While he may KO the Kyle Okposos of the league, they are far from the best of them. ADA has to stay in his lane or the real tough guys in this league will serve him a plate of piping hot reality. He's not Tie Domi.

I've got an offer for her.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Doesn't he want to stay in the New York area because of his wife becoming a doctor ?

Even if you could trade him, it would have to be in that area.

 

[GAGLine]

It doesn’t kick in until next season

Which is in 5 days. He isn't getting traded.

 

[MisterT]

Took 26 faceoff's this year and won 7. Trouba won't want to play in Toronto anyways

Unless there's a significant add from the Rangers, Leafs wouldn't touch that regardless.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Trouba has a full no move clause in his contract. He's not going anywhere.

Doesn't kick in until Oct 9 Trouba can be moved without his say so, Though i doubt Gorton moves him.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

It doesn’t kick in until next season

It kicks in next Friday, But yeah Trouba isn't getting dealt.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Wasn't Trouba only willing to go to NYR or the Red Wings. He got a huge money contract with a full NMC. He's not getting traded.

Yup, He's not going anywhere.

The only reason Trouba chose New York was because his wife is going to be a future Dr there, That's the only reason.

[jrs]

I’m sure Pionk can play on the left side

 

[jay from jersey]

Yup, He's not going anywhere.

This. Guy is a legitimate 1B d-man. He got better as the season went on. In the play ins he was the best D we had. He is the only big minute eating D rangers have currently. But because of Fox deangelo and nils in the system and to some extent skinner NYR fans think it would be ok to deal him. He plays against the best in the world every night and does a good job insulating the youth. Fox and Deangelo had such great seasons because of trouba taking those match ups. Plus he has a mean streak which we need more of not less. He goes nowhere barring an ugly divorce. The key is finding a mobile good decision making partner to pair him with ( like josh Morrissey) to maximize his talents. Hopefully Robertson or K’Andre Miller can be that guy

 

[Lindberg Cheese]

I had no idea this thread would be a shit show going in

 

[cwede]

Posters thinking this idea is simply NYR Buyer's Remorse likely just havent watched NYR closely, to see how we got here.
In the short season after Trouba joined NYR, DeAngelo finally delivered a season consistently performing to his talent and gumption, Adam Fox arrived fully ready for NHL from college hockey, and NYR'S top RHD prospect Nils Lundkvist had one of the best seasons of any D man outside the NHL.
So many think Trouba leaving won't leave too huge a hole, and would allow using that Cap hit elsewhere on roster. All possibly true.
But I also believe that Trouba playing his many and tough minutes helped place ADA and Fox in position to maximize their impact and production.
And i expect Trouba to more consistently effective following his 1st season in NYC, many athletes go though a bit of challenging transition coming into such a new environment (obvi not always, thank you Bread)
It will be a gamble if NYR move Trouba

 

[pld459666]

Trouba is not getting traded.

This thread is a waste of bandwidth

 

[Stuzchuk]

hmmm... simply not going to work because he wanted to be in NYC when he got traded from the Jets...

[Mandar]

The OP is a well known hater of this player. He will take 5 used pucks so that his precious ADA will stay with the NYR. Take him with a grain of salt
