Proposal: Trouba Mega thread Part V

[lanky]

No, because Trouba wants to leave and he will as soon as he has the power to do so.

Trouba will suck it up and play here until Chevy gets a trade offer he's happy with. Myers will continue to be an important part of the Jets lineup.

 

[Maukkis]

Here's what I don't get...

WPG wants equal value for Trouba. They aren't going to receive it. But they also are probably not going to trade him either. Trouba claims it's not about money, but playing the right side.

So why the hell don't they just trade Tyler Myers and put Trouba on the right damn side? Unless they really think that Trouba will eventually just accept his role, but to me it just looks like a stalemat that will hurt both sides.

Getting less than equal value on a young stud like Trouba sucks, and I get why they wouldn't do that. OK, so isn't trading Myers for a LD and getting slightly less than equal value a much easier pill to swallow?

Myers is not getting traded because Trouba wants out. If someone doesn't like his role, he's the one who goes.

 

[KingDeathMetal]

That would be logical but I don't think the Jets brass believe him. They're pretty sure its all about not wanting to live in Winnipeg.

They need to get on some major PR like Cleveland did with the Cavs proclaiming it THE LAND.

Build a few night clubs, get Laine, Wheeler and Big Buff in a rooftop hot tub with some naked calendar models, surrounded by snow, wearing Santa hats.

PEG LIFE. Whatchu know about that PEG LIFE Trouba? You sure you want out?

 

[KingDeathMetal]

Damn, you guys aren't messing around with this kid. I feel like he's Private Pyle and your whole team is moments away from beating him up with tube socks filled with soap boars. Chevy gets the last few whacks.

because tyler myers is the better player right now. if he wasnt then trouba would have been playing that side over him. imo

What?

Myers is happy with the Jets. Trouba is not, and he wants out.

Which one do you trade?

 

[wintersej]

Or Trouba is more capable at playing his offside.

 

[GoJetsGo55]

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Trouba is better than Myers IMO. No knock on Myers. Trouba was moved because he's the more capable player.

 

[surixon]

That would be logical but I don't think the Jets brass believe him. They're pretty sure its all about not wanting to live in Winnipeg.

Because it really isn't about his usage. He got plenty of icetime here the last number of years. Infact his agent was asked the same question and danced around it.

Anyways Chevy isn't going to fold here. Perhaps Morrissey stepping up may make him change the pieces he's looking for but he won't deal him until he gets what he deems his price is.

 

[SCP Guy]

While I know Chevy has his flaws....In a situation like this Im very happy he is driving the boat on this one....He won't budge before Trouba does unless he gets his full price

He hasn't even allowed Jets to make any kind of offer so I'd say he just wants out.

But I don't get why he wouldn't atleast sign a 1 year deal, play hockey, develop and continue to work on a trade.
Him sitting is going to lose him millions, affects his this year+ his next contract.

 

[vipernsx]

So because the Rangers play good defense, that means that Staal is a good d-man?

I am sure that it has everything to do with him and little to do with the fact that you've had a future HOF goalie in net for his entire tenure there.

Staal WAS a good defenseman until he took that puck to the eye. Since then, every time his name is mentioned by Rangers fans, it's been in a negative light.

Anti Raanta and Cam Talbot fared pretty well in front of the same defense that Henke does. Further the same defense that started off the season playing awful a few years back lead to some pulling the panic button because Henke was looking terrible and Marty Biron hung up the laces.

While he's not an elite defender like he was, he's still maintained the level of a top4 blueliner. If you ask anyone who's been around this board for a while, Ranger fans will always have their sacrificial lambs, at least one will be a defenseman. Just look on the Rangers board for the opinion of Michael Rozsival while he was with the team, he's since gone on to win a couple of cups as part of a solid D corpse. Until the Rangers went to the finals, Stralman had a target on his back.

To start this season, Staal has been engaged and playing as well as I've seen him play. The guys been up in the offensive zone and even buried a goal already.

Speaking of tabloid beat writers, it was Larry Brooks of the New York Post who started the finger pointing at the Rangers blueline as the reason why they were torched by the Pens. I'll say it again, the Pens torched EVERYONES blueline!

Seth Jones is a great young player and Clb is happy because he filled a need but make no mistake, Nashville for RyJo at a discount (75 cents on the dollar)

To summarize, you will get a great piece back for Trouba but it is very unlikely that you'll get 1 for 1 value.

Agreed.

Furthermore RyJo wasn't demanding a trade, Turris was. This further hurts his value. That all said, RHD improves his value. In total I'd expect 60-70% of Trouba's full value is the return that the Jets will get.

 

[lanky]

That seems like a logical approach. Trouba is instead trying to force his way out according to his own time line. He has seen Chevy bide his time while Kane and Bogo waited for their trade requests to be acted on.

 

[Mad Brills*]

Wonder if this is turris 2.0 and he signs, plays a few games and ultimately gets moved.

Then he won't be traded.
Chevy has full support of ownership and management on this.

Chevy gets exactly what he wants, or a deal isn't made.

Trouba will be back in a Jets uniform before he gets traded for anything less than full value.

Detroit receives: Jacob Trouba
Winnipeg receives: Anthony Mantha, 2016 2nd rounder

 

[Redline]

Has there been any news on this topic at all?
I've read some baseless speculation the last couple weeks but that's about it.

Not sure who you are cheering for here, but that is one gross proposal

 

[Snowman]

Detroit would still need to be adding Larkin in this deal. A draft bust and a second rounder doesn't get Trouba.

The Jets will not discuss anything publicly and Trouba's agent only has made his couple of statements. Reporters only have speculation because that is all that has been provided.

In my mind the ask has been made so high to essentially make it impossible for anyone to do the deal. Jets still maintain that Trouba is a big part of their future. So I would say that their preference is to NOT trade him. Unless someone over pays (which doesn't make sense for that other team).

[The Zermanator]

That's a joke. He nearly made the Wings, it was between him and Athanasiou. He's got 6 goals in 4 games in the AHL so far.

 

[gwh]

Wonder if this is turris 2.0 and he signs, plays a few games and ultimately gets moved.

You mean Turris, Dubinsky, RyJo or any other camp holdout Overhardt is done?

Yes, this is exactly that. Trouba is gone in 1 or 2 years.
