Eklund Rumor: Trouba to the Habs?

[Seanaconda]

Webber + for Trouba and one of your top 6 C

No-one wants Weber

 

[Go4soda]

Awesome.
Bad fit. No details.
Classic ek.

 

[Whileee]

Seeing some of the proposals here makes Eklund look insightful by comparison.

 

[Maukkis]

Webber + for Trouba and one of your top 6 C

Weber is of zero interest.

 

[Hunter368]

Webber + for Trouba and one of your top 6 C

No thx

Webber + for Trouba and one of your top 6 C

a young team doesn't need that contract dragging them down for the next decade

No-one wants Weber

I am sure Toronto would !

 

[TT1]

No one wants Weber, except actually hockey GM's

How can Habs trade for Touba when they don't know the Jet's Price.

 

[A Loyal Dog]

********. if Weber was offered, most teams would bite. Don't be ridiculous.

I would never trade him for Trouba, unless Trouba came with another significant piece.

 

[Johnnybegood13]

$$$$$

So you're saying there political motives here?

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

LMFAO @Eklund with Sergachev gone, The Habs no longer have the pieces to land Jacob Trouba plus i think it was made pretty clear that outside of Winnipeg whom owns his rights he wants no part of Canada.

 

[Devourers]

Funny part is when you click the link, it says Myers. Trouba's name isn't even on the page.

Good luck with that.

Not for the kind of package Montreal would demand, we wouldn't.

 

[A Loyal Dog]

Good luck with that.

Thanks. Good luck with TroubleTrouba.

 

[broinwhyteridge]

Thanks. Good luck with TroubleTrouba.

Better than the depth charge waiting to sink your cap situation with that contract.

 

[JetsHomer]

Thanks. Good luck with TroubleTrouba.

Well gladly take the younger better cheaper Dman

 

[A Loyal Dog]

Well gladly take the younger better cheaper Dman

Good joke.

 

[JetsHomer]

Good joke.

Scores more, plays the exact same type of minutes and puts up better shot metrics. I'm sorry that objective facts are funny to you

Scores more? Where? And haha you're killing me![MOD]

If we ignore that Trouba's best point total would be behind Weber's 9 best (10 if we pro-rate the lockout year) seasons, including every year since 07-08 when Weber only played 54 games, then yes. Same for goals. But I guess "objective facts" is a loose term to some.

 

[MardyBum]

Good joke.

Now GAR is not perfect, but the fact that Trouba is 8? years younger than Weber just reinforces it. One day he'll get 250 min of pp time in a season to pump his numbers as well.

 

[Halla]

habs have neither the assets to make a move (unless its galchneyuk+)
or the need for a RHD that would push Petry down to one of the most expensive 3rd pairing guys in the league.

I used to get excited about EK rumors...when I was 13

 

[broinwhyteridge]

So the numbers are wrong or are you just ignoring them because they don't say what you want them to?
