I'm sure he'll convert to center this year and then the league will figure out a way to get the Penguins the #1 pick... again...
Can't let the penguins go a single year without a generational center.

Something that doesnt show up on fancy stats is how players react to a player like Trouba when they are on the ice. It's a thing, you have to be aware when he's out there and cranky

For all the hate he gets, Trouba is gonna fetch a nice return in a few years. GM’s love players that have that kind of reputation.
Also find it funny that the only goaltender says Kreider

if a player is uncomfortable with you on the ice it will probably manifest in more turnovers, which would probably reflect in their stats.

If something doesn't show up in any stats then it doesn't matter.

Feeling it
That Shoulder Check Showcase is a great thing.
In the Hockey world, for decades anything mental health related was not discussed and literally repressed by players, almost out of necessity for some to succeed in the game (see Boogaard as one example).
Same could be said for all athletics, so events like this are important to break the longstanding cultures.

I can buy the idea that physical defensemen can make people uncomfortable.
Forwards don't want to go anywhere near Radko Gudas and his elbows.
The stats show that forwards are very f***ing comfortable when Trouba is on the ice.
It does show up in the stats, you just have to make the connection.

Sam Bennett: "You just elbowed that guy into January!"
Radko Gudas: Series of triumphant grunts.

Stop playing with my f*cking emotions.
He and Key together on this team, we would become the face of the NHL..
These kids win it all.... could be absolutely legendary.
We could make hockey cool.
Even though I think Ziggy is a Rick Moranis-level dork.
I love the fact that Gudas turned down several Canadian teams and chose Anaheim. Some people say it's a bad contract. But the Ducks needed a guy to strike some fear into the opponents, help clear the crease and bring physicality.

He has not come close to an NHL goalie with any speed since the Price incident . He would be twice the overall player if he did and the Rangers that much better for it . Imagine having that kind of leg drive /speed with puck in tow to the net with him and Gauthier going full bore and either Mika or Chytil in the middle . That would have been a hard line to neutralize without the opposition taking a penalty to hold one of them up.......what could have been !
Next you'll be talking about synergy with Boo Nieves...
