Speculation: NYR & DET working on Jacob Trouba trade (Brooks)

[5cotland]

I'm really gonna miss Trouba on the Rangers. He is much better than what he gets credit for and a great locker room guy and leader but he is not worth $8m a year. That contract is a bit of an anchor.

Talk of Rangers trading Jacob Trouba to Red Wings growing

Momentum continues to build for the Rangers captain Jacob Trouba’s exit from New York after five seasons.

"Indeed, a well-placed source has told The Post that GM Chris Drury is working on a deal to send the captain to the Red Wings, a trade that the Michigan native would presumably accept after having played as a freshman for the Wolverines in 2012-13.

We are told the Rangers may retain $2.5 million per year on the two remaining seasons of Trouba’s $8M annual cap charge. That represents 31.25 percent retention that would also be applied to the $12M in salary Trouba has coming over the next two seasons."

Red Wings continue with the self-induced sabotage. You'd think Stevie would have learned after the DeBrincat fiasco.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Pack your shit, Troubs. You're headed home.

 

[MB3]

god I hope he hits brooks with a flying elbow on the way out

 

[CanadienShark]

Lol I feel bad for Detroit fans.

 

[IslesNorway]

How come the Rangers always finds someone else to rid them of their problems??

Wtf was wrong with the Debrincat trade?

 

[Thirty Seven]

Trouba on his way out

 

[FlyguyOX]

Yzerman is going to sink that franchise good grief

Debrincat was a fiasco?

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Trouba isn’t good. He continues to get scored on because he is too focused on open ice elbows. Detroit’s choices in FA and trades have been head scratching

 

[Jerzey Devil]

And yet another GM rushes to bail the Rags out of a bad contract.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

What an odd move by Detroit if this actually happens

 

[FlyguyOX]

Just surrounding Seider with straight garbage ever since his debut. Feel bad for him

 

[BringTheReign]

Man, I feel sorry for Red Wings fans. Yzerman does not know what he's doing to nearly the degree we all thought he did when he left Tampa.

Wow. Detroit fans will be pi-ss-ed

 

[HockeyVirus]

The fall from grace of Yzermen is crazy. Basically considered the best GM in the league 6 years ago and now he looks like an awful GM constantly targeting trash players.

Unless Copp and to a lesser extent Holl is going back the other way then I’ve officially jumped a ship on the Yzerplan. Has anyone checked on his mental capacity lately?

 

[Epic Neal Time]

Yzerman is so bad, what is he doing? They need to trade everyone except Larkin, Seider, and Raymond and retool.

Fiasco?

Our 2nd leading scorer for a late 1st and garbage? Lol

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

As I said here earlier in the week. This website rarely lives in reality and that there would be pretty wide interest in trouba if $$$ was retained. Trouba for 2 years at $5.5 aint bad. Low risk

 

[wings95]

The Wings need some snarl. Wonder what the price will be if true.

 

[deca guard]

wonderful how fools rip yzerman whom just hit home runs with seider-raymond-danielsson-asp-cossa-kasper-edvinsson-etc after taking over weakest depth chart in nhl . ya hes a **** idiot lol

Is NY Post/Brooks actually credible for sports? From what I’ve seen over the years online the NY Post is an absolute joke of a news source.

The Post is garbage in general but Brooks is the most plugged in Rangers reporter there is. So if he’s saying it, it’s not bullshit
