Not even close. Vancouver doesn't have what it'll take.
Ben Hutton... But not a chance you're getting him for Trouba.
Oh stop. Just seriously stop. Hutton wouldn't even get Troubas jock strap in real life. Your fantasy land thoughts are amusing tho

I'll say it again.... Vancouver Calgary Edmonton Toronto Ottawa Montreal are not options. If trouba plays in Canada it will be with the Jets. Cuz reality here... this is not about not wanting to be just in winnipeg. It's about his family who owns his ass wanting him to play in the States.
I'm afraid you're forgetting the minute his trade request went public his stock got knocked a level.Here's the thing... Jets don't and won't trade him until they get what they want in return. They want a young LHD who is similar aka the same age and calibre of trouba.
What??
Some leafs fan think Gardiner is better than Trouba??
Get your heads out of the sand for **** sake.

Pre public request he may have gotten Ryan Murray.
Post public request you may have to take Derrick Pouliot.
Personally, I think Winnipeg plays hardball with him, nobody is buying his reason for leaving of positional play, he wants out of the city plain and simple. It won't be pretty for the franchise if he gets his request without a long battle.
This Leaf fan would absolutely add to Gardiner in a Trouba deal. I wouldnt blink at a Gardiner and Kapanen centric offer. I think Trouba has massive upside. I'd honestly love to have him, but competition for his services is inevitable...

Because....draft picks.
Stefan > Laine
All jokes aside, I agree that Trouba is more valuable than Hutton. But the gap between them isn't exactly as big as you might think. Hutton put up 25 points in 75 games as a rookie on a dumpster fire team.
Gardiner + Kapanen + Draft Pick + $2M in Cap Space > Trouba
LOL. You clearly need to watch Hutton, then.
It really isn't. Gardiner being the most valuable piece from the Leafs end and he is nowhere near the same caliber player as Trouba in the long term. Kapanen has been horrendous in every WJC I've seen him play. Just disappointment after disappointment. He's a borderline future NHL player at this point and I hate to say that as a Finn.
The Jets are not looking for quantity nor short term cap space, but a D man of Trouba's caliber. They are the ones holding the cards right now as well and if you look at Leafs and what they have to offer, there really is no good deal to be made that would benefit both sides (since I don't see why they would be parting with Rielly).
from the isles i would offer hamonic for trouba and a 2nd and 3rd.
Hamonic might not be needed on the jets right side but he would have less qualms of playing the left side. He is older more established and cheaper. The 2nd and 3rd attempt to address the uncertainty of troubas next contract.
