The entire world knew his wife was a doctor and that they had a preference of where to live, not that he’d refuse to report if traded to a team that’s not on his NTL.

I disagree. It always means something. We might as well be San Jose or Anaheim if none of that matters.
This better be a late April Fools joke. Drury is so dumb. Stop being too loyal. His cap and play hurts the team more than helps the team.
Would any of you be interested in Tarasenko at 2 x $3? Reilly Smith can play LW on the 3rd line. Or you can really blend it up by finally separating Kreider and Zib. More likely it would be;
Panarin-Troch-Laf
Kreider-Zib-Tarasenko
Smith-Chytil-Kakko
Cuylle-Carrick-Vesey
Rempe/Edstrom

They picked wrong, I’d much rather have Chychrun and return Wheeler or something, than Smith and then scraps at D.

I think some people put too much stock into Brooks' original articles. Shouldn't do that.
He isn't good for reports. He is better at just dropping interesting pieces. Never actually breaking a story.
The small Easter egg you should be talking about is that Lindrgen wants long term and the Rangers don't. That is an interesting comment.
The "Trouba is done here" was not typical Larry and he doubled down to try to save face. Now he looks bad.

Glen Sather would've handled this Trouba situation far better than Chris "I won a Little League World Series" Drury.

Seems like all of this stuff is speculation.
In the end its a business.
Trouba is allowed to be upset about being traded.
And Drury can move him for whatever reason. The team must come first. Not Trouba's feelings.
If moving Goodrow/Trouba hurts the locker room this much, then it wasn't a very strong locker room to begin with. These are professional athletes. They'll forget about Trouba a week into pre-season.

Wouldn't be the worst and I think Berard makes a serious run at Vesey spot. Also adding Nate Schmidt on D would be an upgrade on thr 3rd pair.
Any chance the Rangers if they still consider to trade Trouba to have a 3rd team help for cap reasons? Maybe that was the holdup. Now who knows if the Red Wings was even true. So I guess this is the roster in training camp, same team with a tweak with the same issues
Im just so sick of relying on an all world goalie to mask deficiencies. especially ones as glaring as the D corps. Its not a formula for winning a cup.

Do we know he'd refuse to report? How do we know that? Did he say that? Did his agent say that? Has that been reported somewhere with credibility that I missed? Or is this just more windbag speculation?
I think Berard can be more than a 4th liner. I say 2ed line upside if he flourishes, but 3rd liner most likely.

I thought on waivers the player has to go anywhere the team that wants him is located?
I thought Trouba prior to the post season and in prior seasons was ok. If he had a broken ankle why didnt we play Jones?
So many mixed emotions: if not injured hes not bad, he stands up for his wife and baby, yet he legit was a bozo in the playoffs f***ing up all the time.
Could we really be stuck with Jake the snake as our C next year? Hopefully he makes some bone crushing hits, timely passes and rebuilds his crumbling legacy?? Oh noes.

Sure but I’m not talking about the players
My larger point is that this is going to further encourage the worst of Rangers fans to inundate Trouba and his family with hate

It doesn’t mean “nothing,” but at the same time, it doesn’t mean nearly enough.
This idea that we made the final four and so we should just keep being ok with that because maybe someday Lightning will strike is the epitome of foolishness.
When you are at where we are at, the hard work is just beginning. Now you’ve gotta do the heavy lifting of turning yourself from a playoff team into a Cup winning team.
It involves more than just saying “we were close, and we can’t risk not being close, so we will just see everyone back here next year to try again.”

They are not going to waive him because there is no reason for them to do so.

My entire comment that you are replying to is based on that speculation, so yes.
If none of this is true and Jacob is gonna go wherever we trade him then hallelujah, we are all good.
There could be a reason.

I mean you cant operate a business worrying about what sociopaths are going to do.
Trouba signed a 7 year deal for 56 million. I assume the Rangers wouldn't have agreed to such a long contract if they didn't have a way out after 5 years. Now we are at 5 years so we should have the advantage yet Drury has screwed this up and somehow has allowed Trouba to still call the shots.

It's called grandparents, get them to help raise the child at the Detroit residence. Children or no children, doctor or no doctor, Drury should not be intimidated. Finish the job.
