I wish we had the ammo for Trouba, he would be perfect.
We don't?
Trouba was a hold-out, took his team to arbitration after they made it to the WCF, and has arbitration rights where Winnipeg can only get elect a one-year deal because of JT's proximity to UFA. Thats not to say that JT holds all the cards but the clock is ticking. That limits their time to find that vaunted quantity-for-quantity deal. And JT is either being traded on a 1 year deal with UFA around the corner or you have to find a team that he's willing to come to terms with before a trade is executed.
I think Detroit could really put together a very competitive package. Personally, I put anything but Larkin and Cholowski on the table, including our 2019 first if it ends up being outside the top 6-7.
