Charts are redundant. Also, a lot of his “evidence” is based on +/-, which I don’t take seriously.

No, Hockey Duckie knows everything and his charts prove it. How dare you question his greatness

OK, but did you even CONSIDER his charts?!?!

Re: Trouba

Wouldn’t be the worst thing for the Ducks to have a physical douchebag on D

We need to get meaner, period. Trouba is true captian material, who when traded will be very pissed off with a lot to prove
 
ANA has something like $19M in free cap space. Trouba's cap hit is $8M. I'm terrified.

Leo, can you give us a real scouting report. Is he has bad as some people are saying. Is he just over paid?

He can’t play defense. He is a shell of himself. If you want him taking out opposing star players he is your guy. But that sorta thing is not cool.

I don’t even thing a lesser role would help to be honest.

I think the only thing Trouba will prove is that he's poor at defense and that there's a big market bias regarding suspendable offences.

Hopefully we're on his no go list.
 
If its true that NYR are going to waive him if he doesnt accept one of the trades on the table, I have to assume the return wont be much. This sounds like a cap/player dump more than trying to get a bunch of pieces back.

1.5 years @ 8mil per. Maybe if they retain a little, like 25%, they could get a few picks.

Word is he'll be waived by 2PM today if he doesn't play ball

Edit: I'm an idiot and read "Tkachuk".
Obviously it would be huge, but would likely cost 1 of our good under 23 forwards and 2025 1st and another piece.

And he isnt guaranteed to stay in 4 years. He wants to win and his NTC kicks in after this year.
The only way I do this is if he makes it clear he WANTS to play here and stay here. Basically only makes sense if he picks Anaheim.

He "only" makes 6M salary this year and next, so in that way he's actually slightly cheaper for us than Fowler (6.5M). They save the 1.5M cap space, we save a bit of money, if they add some sort of asset(s) I could see a mutually beneficial deal there.

What? They are saying they are going to waive him in a few hours if he doesnt waive his NMC for one of the trades on the table. Would you give up a 1st rounder if you knew they were just going to waive him?

That would be a fire worthy offence.

Im thinking at most they are going to get a few picks with the highest pick being like a 2nd, maybe.

The Rangers have stated they will outright waive him for nothing, this is a player dump they aren't getting anything valuable for Trouba, so only Fowler is on the table most likely on the Ducks side.

LOLOL I read it on the Tkachuk to NY thread and I guess my brain just read Tkachuk.

Ya obviously Trouba would be free.

We have NO use for Trouba. We don't even have a use for Fowler at this point. PLEASE stay away from this, Pat.

They play completely different roles.

I could see an argument be made that the roster with Trouba is better then the roster with Fowler, even though Fowler is clearly better.
