Why even trade Trouba for Fowler? You could get Fowler for a lot cheaper and use as a stop gap until the ideal Trouba trade materializes. I don't think it would take much as the Ducks would appreciate the cap space to help sign their own RFA's.

Hmm. LHD, in the same ballpark as Trouba, 25 and under. I've got:
-Lindholm
-Gostisbehere
-Murray
-Rielly
-Ristolainen
-Klefbom
Yah I agree. Except I'd rather keep dano then Fowler. Nit sure why so many are down on that kid.
Hes good and going tk be a very strong top six scorer IMO
Leave Connor & Petan alone.
Dano, Armia, Lowry... feel free to trade all 3. They're not worth much though.

Nickel eye Heel hers
Happy thoughts
I definitely don't include dano in that group with the other two.
Also important to note is connor and Laine are both Lw. Dano's the only natural RW of the group (I believe)
Long term I'd love our top line to look like
Laine Little Wheeler
Connor Little Dano
Perrault Petan (whoever)

Agreed. I would prefer to move someone else other than Dano, though he does seem to be undervalued around here.

Trouba sour about playing with Stuart
Chevy forced to trade Trouba
Solution: Trade Trouba with Stuart

Lol that would be ironically convenient.
Trouba and Stuart for harmonic and de haan

Oh I know, but there's lots of time to deal with that and it would be a ton of fun in the mean time.
glad some people are giving trading trouba more thought then chevy because pretty sure he hasn't given it any. positive chevy would take a lot of peoples money here if they played poker with him.
Great in theory
And thats why we may need to include Connor or Petan
I really do not want to see Connor moved. You could talk me into moving Petan. I think Trouba and Petan should net a really nice return.
Lindholm
Chychrun +
Theodore
Provorov
Sanheim +
Beaulieu
Werenski
Nurse + Drai
Klefbom
Hanifin (we might have to add)
Fowler +
I agree with your Werenski
I don't think Columbus wants Trouba though. If they do trade anyone it's likely Carlsson and that would be a big add coming our way along with it.
Lindholm, Theodore, Hanifin, Provorov, Sanheim, Sergachev and Werenski are my favourite targets. Getting any of those guys would make me pretty damn happy about this situation.

Same crap that was said about Kane. Won't come out until after the fact but my bet is he doesn't want to be here.
Mo helped that along immensely by miscasting him with an absolute plug. Ehlers was lucky enough to escape the plug treatment; Trouba never did. As it stands I'm blaming this one on Mo, helped along by having a knob of an agent.
Good question!
Laine little wheeler
Ehlers little dano
Connor Perrault Petan
Boom boom.
Switch petan and dano as you see fit

Completely forgot about Hanifin.
I considered Maatta and de Haan as well, but I'm not sure if they have Trouba's upside.

It's all a sham, smoke and mirrors
Well, this much is clear -- Jacob Trouba and his agent would do us all a favour if they could at least get their story straight.
Because right now, the only gulf wider than the one separating Trouba and the Winnipeg Jets is the one separating what Trouba had been saying just days ago about the state of those talks and what his agent is now saying.
Pick a version, fellas. We don’t even care which one. But at the moment, you’re just insulting our intelligence, while simultaneously calling your own into question.
It is impossible to reconcile -- at least with a straight face -- what the Jets defenceman told the Free Press less than two weeks ago about the state of his contract negotiations with the Jets and what his agent, Kurt Overhardt, told the world Saturday night about those same negotiations.
The list of discrepancies between the relatively rosy and optimistic picture Trouba painted to the Free Press with the apocalyptic version of events Overhardt described in a news release issued on the eve of a Canada Russia hockey game is so long as to be laughable.
But hey, everyone could use a good laugh, right? So let’s compare and contrast what Trouba told the Free Press on Sept. 14 with what Overhardt said in his news release on two principal issues.
On the state of talks with the Jets
Trouba on Sept. 14: "They’re dealing with it. Kurt’s talking to Chevy. They’re going back and forth and talking."
Overhardt on Sept. 24: "There has been no negotiation regarding the terms of a contract between our client and the Jets over the course of the last several months."
--On whether there is any doubt Trouba will be in the Jets lineup on opening night:
Trouba on Sept. 14: "Not in my mind."
Overhardt on Sept. 24: "Our client, Jacob Trouba, will not be attending the Winnipeg Jets NHL training camp. Since May, we have been working with the Jets management in an effort to facilitate a trade of Jacob’s rights."
Bwahaha. You crazy kidders.
Never mind whether the Jets and Trouba have been talking; I’d argue the better question right now is whether Trouba and his agent have been talking the last couple weeks.
And the discrepancies don’t end there. Indeed, these two guys weren’t even on the same page on the one issue Overhardt says is a deal-breaker -- Trouba’s desire to play more on the right side of the defence because he is a right-handed shot.
"The situation is not about money," Overhardt wrote in his release, "it is solely about our client having the opportunity to realize his potential as a right shot NHL defenseman."
Is that right?
Well it just so happens that a lot of my interview with Trouba on Sept. 14 -- I tracked him down in Pittsburgh after a pre-tournament World Cup game involving Team North America -- centred on Trouba’s desire to play a larger role -- with the Jets -- and, yes, his hope to play more on the right side -- of the Jets defence
Indeed, Trouba’s desire for a bigger role and more right-side play were the first two paragraphs of the column I wrote about that interview.
But Trouba also made clear to me at the time -- in very specific detail -- that playing the left side despite having a right handed shot really isn’t that big of a deal for him.

I don't think Connor = Petan. Petan's an add Connor is a lot closer to the main course.

I'd deal Petan before Armia and Dano for sure. And I have absolutely no interest in trading Connor unless we get an over payment coming back.
Just think it's terrible mistake to trade Petan before he's had a real look with some skilled players. You pair a playmaker like Nic with a couple of finishers and it could really raise his stock.
