I did say in my second post that this was information that I heard from the fan base and that is what I am going by. I am going to end this here and just wish all you Rangers fans a good season a hopefully Jacob Trouba will provide everything you want out of a top D. Good Luck with your season.

I too enjoy turning 8th graders into my intellectual foes.
So, you are assuming that everyone tells the truth about themselves on this or any anonymous site?

No, I assume that you are all 8th graders.

I'd give her a break to be honest.
Trouba is better than any RD we've had in a long time. Will he f*** up sometimes?---yeah, it's the nature of the position. He can play in all situations--looking at our RD last year--Shatty, Pionk, DeAngelo and McQuaid--the only one who played in all situations was Pionk and he was way over his head in a lot of the situations the coaching staff put him in. What Trouba gives us is a guy who can play all situations and not be over his head in any of them. I like the physical game that Trouba has as well--it's needed. He's a guy who's not great at anything but does everything well. Does he have a problem with his teammates?--I don't know but I suspect not. Him and Skjei have been buddies for a long time--if there were real red flags I think the Rangers would know about them just from asking Brady.

I DONE TOLD Y'ALL. Saw it all from him tonight: physicality on D, bomb from the point, sneaky good passing, in-control play.
He'll have the occasional brainfart, but he's a legit top pairing D.
Can't wait to see him with Miller on his left...

This guy is elite - feels good to have one of these on our team for once.

Elite is tough to say after 1 game.
But man..he was so fun to watch. Big guy, throwing his weight around...just doing everything right out there. Good gap control too...every other defenseman had horrendous gaps all night long. Either mile long, or far too close.

It was a rough night for the defense for the most part. I think that's on the 5man units as a group as coverage was freaking brutal. That said, Trouba was excellent tonight in my opinion.

I said it in the GDT--I think he's the best we've had since a prime McDonagh. He's definitely the best defenseman on this team, and I don't think it's particularly close.

Russ Cohen, a contributor on NHL Network Radio is of the opinion that Trouba has another level he can get to.

Just Be Nice
Will be interesting to see if he can sustain his play over the season. Pretty good start. No one plays
Perfect but overall pretty nice
