COMMENT OFFERS FOR TROUBA

DET: Athanasiou, Hronek, 2nd
FLA: Reimer (retained 1.2m), Heponiemi, 1st
NYR: Zuccarello, Pionk, 2nd
NJD: Vatanen alone or Severson, prospect, 3rd

Leafs: Gardiner, 1st round pick (additional 2nd if Gardiner turns UFA), Connor Brown, Leivo or Carrick.

Don't hate a trade with Trouba, but i think if they would offer Heponiemi, Borgstrom, and a 1st for Trouba (+extension) and Petan it would be more appealling for the Jets. I think Trouba has a ton of interest and value and teams should get it out of their minds that they can get him for cheap. He will cost a high pick and at least an A prospect or two.

I don't know how I feel about Gardiner coming to the Jets, but I understand that Leafs fans are eager to see him move. I honestly think if the Jets were to pursue any trade with the Leafs, who are desperate for a top 2-top 4 RHD, it would involve Nylander coming back. Jets have plenty of forward and D depth, and would be less interested in adding to that depth and more interested in adding an immediate impact player. Leafs fans also hate the thought of losing Nylander, but when it comes to signing Marner, Matthews and Nylander, it may be difficult/impossible to keep all 3, especially with JT locked up long term, so moving Nylander may not be the worst thing.

Washington gives:
Niskanen
Gersich
3rd

Winnipeg gives:
Trouba
