That might be the worst Trouba trade yet. Why would the jets want more prospects and a goalie prospect? They have 2 really really good ones? A Trouba trade will be for players that can play in their top 6 now or can be a top 4 LHD. Do peope even think.

Sometimes you take what you can get bones. If the Jets are having trouble resigning Trouba this is a damn good package. Zboril is a fantastic RHD prospect that's more ready than most defensemen his age. Subban and DeBrusk are quality guys who may be able to jump in later if need be, and you can never have too many blue-chip prospects. What if another roster player begins demanding term or money the team can't afford? Debrusk and Zboril are also automatically expansion protected, which adds another layer of value. And this guy threw in a first round pick? Realistically that's between 10-20 overall.

You haven't been here long if you think this is the worst package for Trouba. Honestly what's this about top 6 forward/ top 4 LHD? If you think the Jets are that close to competing (the only logical explanation for scoffing at a prospect package this good) you're delusional. And if you think Chevy's going to do better for you than what Rosa's offered here, you're delusional.

The jets are much closer than people think bad special teams and goaltending was there down fall. They have been well above avg at 5vs5 the last 4 yrs. And I'm in Winnipeg the jets will get him signed. People on the outside know **** all.

And really why the fuckdo the jets want a goalie prospect are you stupid and they don't need RHD they have enough. The whole package makes no sense.

People are so clueless about the jets on here.

I'm not going to argue the Jets aren't capable of being an above average team. I'm going to argue that's about their ceiling next year. They're an exciting young team, but if they went to the second round of the playoffs next year that would be mission accomplished, hands down a phenomenal season. Next season, they are not competing for a cup. Next season, the Jets are competing for a wild card spot and their first playoff series win since the relocation.

I'm not going to argue that the Jets aren't signing Trouba because you're right; likely, he will be resigned. In my original reply I merely stated that hypothetically, were Trouba and Chevy unable to come to terms (and stranger things have happened), this package is a good package.

And why would the Jets want a goalie? Why would they want a RHD? Why does any team continue to develop prospects in positions of strength? Because **** happens and you can never have too many prospects. Because handedness isn't end-all and injuries happen. Lines can't be perfect and sometimes you want to be able to rely on good young prospects in the farm team. And goalies are voodoo, you can't count your chickens before they hatch. Kari Lehtonens and Eddie Lacks happen, young goalies can't always repeat strong rookie performances. Besides the whole point of this trade is that you're not going to have Trouba once its done. So you get a RHD with similar upside. Obviously not enough to warrant a one-for-one in the worst of times but that what the package is for. Taken as a whole, this package could be an acceptable replacement for Trouba.

Are you really this upset about it? Calm down and explain to everyone like an adult.

If the Jets, like most teams want immediate help for Trouba, couldn't there be a fairer offer. Gee, in this post Trouba is signed for 6.1 a year, You would think Beleskey would be a start ....he's only a 3.8m player
Maybe Myers would be a cheaper fit for the Bruins. Or wait till next year for the new group of UFAs.

Why are you all fired up, Bones? Maybe the package doesn't fit what you deem as "needs" for Trouba, but value for value ... That is a solid offer.

There is only value if both teams need the pieces involved. That package won't get you a top 2 dmen. Edmonton set the bar far to high. Market is set. Trouba will net you at least Tayler Hall value.

And you draft for talent and trade for need. I don't think that's a hard concept to get.

The point is you draft for talent and trade for need. Jets have no RHD need. Another point is why get a goalie you can't protect in the upcoming expansion draft? That is also poor asset management. And people Trouba is a top 2 dmen. There is a ton of stats and prove that show he can play and succeed in that role.

Oh you're one of those people. I'm sorry, but what one team does with a player doesn't "set the bar". You are not getting that value for Trouba.
