I could see Foote+Girardi+Joseph+2nd or something
Johnson isn't much of an upgrade on Little if anything.
Point on the other hand..

It’s worth the upgrade for 1 big run this year. Wouldn’t give up a Point or a Sergachev but a Foote I would.Again, if Trouba were locked up long term to a team-friendly deal and we had a plan in place to clear the necessary cap space then sure, but as things stand he could walk in two years and as such simply is not worth Foote.
I feel like jets defense can afford to lose Trouba at least somewhat
Connor-Scheifele-Wheeler
Ehlers-Johnson-Laine
Perreault-Little-Roslovic
Tanev-Lowry-Copp
Is loaded. Jets fans keep complaining about their hole at 2c and Johnson could be an answer, and if they think Trouba will leave for nothing in 2020 then it makes some sense
Considering the return for Rick Nash at the TDL, I hope to hell we can get a better return than Tyler Johnson if we are trading Trouba! It starts with Sergachev (possible 1:1) then goes to Foote +. TJ would be ++. With Hedman and McD locked up, do you need Sergs?? A Hedman/Trouba, McD/Strahlman would be deadly.
The problem starts with the fact we are both in win now modes. Trades like this only happen at TDLines with teams out of the running. Look what Boston had to pay for Nash. Winnipeg will get much better offers than Tyler Johnson

I can understand not wanting Johnson but at the same time you have to realize that Trouba with only two years of team control doesn’t come close to landing someone like Sergachev, who has already looked very good at the NHL level in his rookie season (at 19yo no less) and who has another two years left on his ELC. Foote is at least debatable as he has yet to set a skate on NHL ice, but based on the reports that Yzerman wouldn’t trade him for two years of Karlsson I’d say it’s highly unlikely he’d give up Foote here.
I agree that with both teams looking to win now and being deep at forward that we don’t make very good trading partners. We don’t really need Trouba and can’t afford him without gutting our forward depth, and you’re probably better keeping him for another season and then if it seems like you won’t be able to resign him trading him for futures at that time.
If the Jets do trade Trouba, I'd think they'd want a high potential D prospect and a pick. Losing his contract will make next summer a hell of a lot easier for Chevy
Unless the Jets can get a deal that's clearly better than what they'd get for him as a rental in 2 years, which most proposals on these boards are not, they can hold on to him. As of January they can negotiate trades where the interested team can agree on a long-term contract in advance.
So all these proposals stating they're only getting him for 2 years are based on a logical fallacy that the Jets have to trade him now and only now, that his value is going down and that the Jets can't use him somehow for the next 2 years otherwise.
So to reply more specifically, start with Point or Sergachev, otherwise forget it.

Newsflash: You could replace 29 other teams in that statement.Newsflash: Tampa would definitely give up scraps for Trouba!

Next Story: Leafs come in with the blockbuster offer of Hyman + Bracco + 2nd.
Again, Point and Serg aren’t going anywhere and without Trouba already being signed to a longterm deal neither is Foote.
I knew I'd get responses like that, and rightfully so. Was just kicking the tires.Point isn't on the table for Karlsson...so no
Tires were sufficiently kicked when NYR fans told us that McDonagh wasn't moving unless Point + Sergachev went their way.I knew I'd get responses like that, and rightfully so. Was just kicking the tires.
