He could start to be penalized for flying elbows if he leaves NY.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Is he going to get bought out?

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Luxury

 

[Ace]

He could start to be penalized for flying elbows if he leaves NY.

I was just laughing at the thought of how many penalties he would be called for as a Sabre.

 

[Turin]

How much is it gonna take to dump him? Luxury is a nice way of saying he sucks azz for his cap hit.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Will be interesting to see what happens

 

[norrisnick]

Do. Not. Want.

 

[JKG33]

If they dump him for the sake of dumping him, by this time next year everyone will be wondering why the Rangers got so much worse, and nobody will be humble enough to admit maybe dumping Trouba was a mistake

Trouba for Skinner

 

[Flair Hay]

If Trouba was getting paid fairly what would he be making?

He was always pretty good, young and cheap in Winnipeg so I always struggle picturing him as this big liability.

He is such a headhunter now too he rarely did that for us

 

[Mrfenn92]

I’ll take him in Chicago

 

[EXTRAS]

Would rather pay trouba 8m for the next 2 years than zadorov the 6m x 6 years he's supposedly going to get.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Trouba for Connor Murphy

 

[FlappyGiraffe]

I want to get the band back together in Winnipeg - Trouba and Laine are available get it done Chevy

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

Well the Rangers always seem to find some sucker to dump bad cap on for basically no trade cost, so yeah, won't surprise me to see someone take on Trouba's contract for like a 5th round pick.

He’s ready

You're saying the Rangers will be much worse without Trouba? That's quite the take

Yes. They instantly go back to being an ultrasoft team without Trouba. I know they have Rempe, but a 4th liner isn't gunna do much.

Trouba is one of those players where you might look at his cap hit and think albatross, but then once you get rid of him you wonder what your team is missing.

There's a reason a team like Calgary went to shit after losing Tkachuk or Bennett. Or why a team like Toronto can't win shit

 

[Clint Eastwood]

Sounds too good to be true for Rangers fans.

Holy Keith Tkachuk

most people think of running nhl teams like it's a video game. anything that's not in a box score or on a highlight reel has an extreme lack of awareness in a stunning amount of people.

 

[BeLeafing]

How could you trade away the winner of the Mark Messier Leadership Award?

 

[Buffdog]

Holy Keith Tkachuk

That was about what he looked like walking into camp most years

He'd "trim down" to his playing weight of 265lbs

The man could still move. What a freak

 

[Breakers]

What’s the backstory, isn’t his wife like a surgeon or something at prominent hospital and she doesn’t want to leave NY.

Or do I have that backwards?
