We could get an Finnish guy named KaapoIf we get Trouba, at least our players will be safe from flying elbows. That's gotta be worth something.
Maybe we can get something from the Rangers for our trouble. What's that? Everyone's untouchable? Ah well, moving on...
This checks out completely, yeah.
From all those charts and metrics the guy is who everyone already dislikes and more, Clifton is better and so is Jokiharju.
Why would anyone want Trouba here?
I think we’re just reacting to the rumor. Pretty sure everyone would prefer that Trouba not play in the league at all.From all those charts and metrics the guy is who everyone already dislikes and more, Clifton is better and so is Jokiharju.

What line did farabee play on?Gotta be a deal around Krebs for Farabee? Seems like Philly is interested in Krebs.
Also what about foerester?Gotta be a deal around Krebs for Farabee? Seems like Philly is interested in Krebs.
Well his metrics are similar to Jokiharju, although he is a little better in attack, on the other hand he is certainly more physical and mean than Joki, also adds a veteran presence. I don't think Trouba is a problem in the locker room, quite the opposite. If Ruff likes him (let's assume), they could replace Joki with Trouba, although he's not the type of defensive back I'd want to add to the lineup (I mean defensive play).

I dont think Krebs gets you Foerester but it sounds like Farabee might be availableAlso what about foerester?
He's insurance in case we suck again for the 14th straight year...If we're gonna be bad at least be entertaining - ala the first Nolan tenureFrom all those charts and metrics the guy is who everyone already dislikes and more, Clifton is better and so is Jokiharju.

close enough to NYC?I'll take Trouba. Close enough to NYC for it to be feasible for him. I do not care about his stats, he's right handed. I'd take Ristolainen back, idgaf. Trouba can't be *that* bad.
I guess you can put me on the list of guys who "care about handedness."
I think it’ll be Zucker in that 2nd line LW role. Anthony from xB recently had an article on him and how he’s actually a decent finisher - when paired with a great passer. IMO he could really work well with Quinn and it gives that line more adult. But I do love me some Benson, so I can be swayed.Without a trade what do we think the 2nd line looks like?
Does Quinn move up and play with Thompson and Tuch or is that JJPs spot based on last year? I think Quinn coming back is going to help a ton. Benson - Cozens - Quinn, and JJP/TT/Tuch would be my lines if the season started tomorrow
