I personally don't care what happens to Trouba ( unless of course he goes to the Bruins ) and the Jets are nothing but an afterthought to me

However, here you are posting in a Trouba thread. You must be a closet Jets fan

Jets should offer Trouba 6 X 5.4 millions.
Haha He won't even answer the phone. I did earlier today and it was somebody trying to sell me a new furnace. God damn it, I rent. Never answer the phone.

I always love the "I don't care but here's my opinion anyway" posts.

i love how people only taken a snippet of a persons comment to try and pick it apart.

I believe I also said that unless he gets traded to the Bruins. If Trouba sits or gets traded makes no difference to me. Also, my initial comment ( which you failed to include) was a comment to a Jets fan on how they value Trouba errr Bobby Orr.

Some Jets fans are really getting their knickers in a knot

Jets fans would love that contract for him. Unfortunately, Chevy would have to get a second phone line that comes up as "Not the Winnipeg Jets" on call display.

Maybe Trouba would take that deal if he could play his natural RD position, But pretty much seeing that's not going to be the case. Pretty sure that his days in the Peg are over.

Don't think Trouba should be paid more than Reilly. Think most I'd be offering is 6 x 4.8 or 4.9 million.

Anyways tho... Jets fans and I'm one... we aren't comparing trouba to one of the best d men ever or even one of the best In the league... you ask a jet fan what they want for Trouba and they will say fair value.

But what happens in these fantasy world threads where reality doesn't seem to exist.... people throw put these lowball offers that 1. Are ridiculous 2. Don't even come close to actually taking the Jets considerations in to things

And then when Jets fans rightfully turn down the basically bag of crap for a potential top 2 22 year old RHD... people get pissy almost like they can't believe jets fans don't want the pile of hot garbage they are offering

Hey Ducks fans how about emelin and desharnais for Lindholm. Insulting right? Pretty much replace Lindholm with Trouba and that's basically what ppl who live in Donald trumps reality are offering

*in my head* Oh no....did I miss a point that this guy had. Lets see what we missed

Alright.....not a complete sentence. Unless he gets traded to the Bruins then what??? Not a problem though. Lets continue

If Trouba sits or gets traded makes no difference to me. Also, my initial comment ( which you failed to include) was a comment to a Jets fan on how they value Trouba errr Bobby Orr.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh he he yeah I guess we do rate him pretty high. Not Bobby Orr high...but pretty high.

It's a pretty tough time but I think we're handling it well.

The meat and potatoes of the whole thing is pretty rough but then we have people showing up trying to antagonize Jets fans.

It's super weird. We had this one guy who kept talking about how little he cared yet he kept showing up. That's like complaining about how much you hate Walmart....while hanging out in Walmart.

P.S. I really don't like Walmart.

Well played, I just simply cannot compete with this level of maturity. Have a pleasant day.

Wow, based on your behaviour and how quickly you pulled that one I'm guessing you get into a lot of "internet battles" must make you feel good. I guess when you don't like the opinion of others you revert to this. I will truly leave now and wait to see what type of comment you post next.

I am just a weird dude in his 30's responding to people making stuff up *shoulder shrug*

Wow, look at all those posts that show you really do care about the Jets well being. Like I said, you can feel the LOVE in the air, especially from our closet fan Smack66.

And he returned a 5th overall pick who had just come off a 0.5 PPG 20 year old season and an 8th overall pick who had just had a reasonably successful rookie season.

Peca was 27 and pretty well established. Sitting a year didn't really seem to hurt his value too much.

Trouba is no Peca, but he's younger while still being established, and the Jets aren't exactly asking for Dal Colle and Nylander (5th and 8th 2 years ago) or Lindholm and Risto (5th and 8th 3 years ago).
