Only thing good about Trouba is the "Trouba" curve I have on my Sherwood stick.
The player is overrated.

To Toronto:
Gaudreau
Hamilton
2nd round pick
To Calgary:
Nylander
Rielly
Kapanen (or Connor Brown)
Let me know what you think.
Winnipeg and it's personnel are quickly becoming the most overrated bunch on these boards.
Hell no is the response I expect from Calgary.

So, you think the proposed trade above is a joke? Toronto would take it without blinking and the Flames would hang up laughing, right?

I don't know about this Reilly guy your talking about but given the choice i'd easily take Rielly over Trouba.

Yes. The value favors Toronto, Toronto takes it just like the Jets would in the proposed OP.
Even though Rielly > Trouba.

Winnipeg fans have taken tons of grief on this board for suggesting essentially that 99.9% of the offers on this board are unattractive, that the Jets do not need what most of you have to offer, and that Winnipeg's needs if they were to trade Trouba would be to acquire a Trouba-clone.
Elliotte Friedman earlier today basically stated that since drafting Laine, the Jets don't really need much of anything:
Heh.

I wonder if the Oilers were looking at Trouba for a forward and then went in another direction with Hall for Larsson.

You have to imagine they didn't want Hall anywhere near the Western conference. Could you imagine playing him a few times a year and potential playoff implications down the road.
The last thing you want to do is trade a top 5-10 positional player close to home. It's asking for a guy to light your ass up in a 7 game series
That being said, I think if Trouba is moved, the return is going to be staggering. The price for a top 4D with upside has been set. Look at the past few seasons. For a top 4D, especially an age appropriate one you have to give up:
1) elite talent, Hall, Johansen
2) equivalent D, Myers/Bogo, Subban/Weber
Hell, even for middle-bottom NHL guys the market is tough. Kris Russel, who still is jobless a month away from the league starting up; netted a potential 1st (2nd), a decent prospect and a bottom 3 Dman.
Defence is a luxury teams don't give up. Over the past decade the only team to win a cup without a beast backend has required two generational centres, a star goalie and stud hotdog eater.
