I know it has been talked over and over again but what you are asking for is more or less Nurse plus a pick and before anyone says anything, no jets fans would agree to it and not many Oilers fans either.

I would do it as an Oilers or offer Sekera if they needed someone that is more complete now.

My concern with trading nurse is he is expansion exempt and cheap for 2 more years. But I would add a little if we could include a bit of a cap dump in someone like Letestu.
 
Because of the contract situation, Trouba is worth less. What GM wants to trade for a potential problem? Value right now is probably a Brodin, due to his contract situation ( locked up at 4M) vs. Trouba's. Not saying that a trade would happen...the opposite, really. If the Wild trade for anyone it won't be a Dman.

A RD starved team that has plenty of cap space and a surfeit of LD is what you are looking for...kinda narrows the field. I'm sure and EDM or TO would love him, but all they have to offer are draft picks and forwards.

So I would assume then that guys like Lindholm, Gaudreau, and Ristolainen have all seen their value drop as well?
 



With these tweets in mind, and keeping WPG's need for an NHL LD coming back...

To CBJ: Jacob Trouba

To WPG: Jack Johnson (NHL LD) + Gabriel Carlsson (Jackets' second best D prospect) + '17 2nd Rd Pick

Not a big fan of Jack, don't think many Jets fans would like this offer. Pass imo

what's the point? Trouba goes from Winnipeg that has Buff and Myers on the right side, to Columbus that has Jones and Savard. And now Columbus lacks LHD
 
I am going to do a list of LHD that might intress you and from what I am guessing you want from their team for Trouba.

Nurse with a big plus.
Klefbom straight across.
Gardner with Valiev as a plus and maybe a little more.
Krug(?) From Boston with some sort of plus.
OEL. Jets add big time.
McDonagh. Would say Jets add a little.

Please add more if anyone can think of more.

I think there would need to be an add on Klefbom too.

Gardner, Valiev + is something worth considering.

No interest in Nurse or Krug. Klefbom is too much of a risk considering he is an uproven commodity.

OEL is not happening. Not in a million years
 
I'd offer Gardiner, but that's about as much tbh. I'd add a second or equivalent prospect.
 
Sounds like most Jet fans aren't interested in Fowler. And besides Trouba will make far more then Fowler and with the Lindholm and Rakell signings i doubt you could afford Trouba as well.

We could move Despres, but you're right. Our major need is at forward, not D anyway. Also, adding Trouba and his huge contract demands will not help us with re-signing Lindholm on the cheap.
