WIEBE: Where does Trouba land? Jets must explore all options
The article lays out the groundwork for potential scenario regarding Trouba's availability & nos future with the Jets. It is well known Trojba requested a trade in 2016 but nothing happened. He has had his best year to date with 50 points & 18 on the PP.
So the final scenario suggests a blockbuster trade involving multiple pieces. Would you give up Homer, 2020 1st ++ for Trouba & another Jets player? This would be you could get Trouba signed long term like Vegas did with Stone. From the article:
WIEBE: Where does Trouba land? Jets must explore all options
On the surface, his value has never been higher.
Yet, how that impacts where Jacob Trouba will play next season (and beyond) remains very much in question with just under a month before the 2019 NHL Draft gets underway in Vancouver.
Why is the date of the draft important as it pertains to Trouba?
Well, it’s the place where all 31 general managers and key decision makers from the respective organizations get together every year.
It’s also the place where agents work behind the scenes for their clients, especially in the years since the unofficial wooing period opens before free agency gets going on July 1.
The Jets are much more likely to fetch a substantial return if Trouba is willing to sign on the dotted line with his new employer.
Trade Trouba as part of a larger package
This is the type of move that could help increase the potential return and take a step toward changing the personnel mix as well. It’s a bit early to tell what type of package the Jets could include, but it would not be surprising to see Cheveldayoff try for a blockbuster like the one from 2015 that included Evander Kane and Zach Bogosian going to the Buffalo Sabres. In fact, it’s probably the most likely scenario that could play out, depending on the principles in the deal and type of return it could generate. Whether the Jets try to shed some salary in a deal with Trouba, like they did in moving Joel Armia to the Montreal Canadiens with Steve Mason, or if they include another player or two with term on his contract is something that will be fascinating to monitor during the coming weeks.
