<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mediumyeet</b></div><div>No disrespect but that is not accurate on Truscott.

Aman just turned 24 a couple weeks ago and is signed to 2 more years at 825k. He is a reliable 4C that has been one of our better penalty killers. He's been in the NHL all year but has been healthy scratched a couple of times. For the most part he's been a regular though. Nothing special but responsible youngish C with some size and decent skating ability.

Truscott is a LHD that plays in Michigan. He's likely nothing special. Turns 22 in April and is 6'1 and just an all around reliable dman. He is the captain at Michigan and prior to this year was paired with Luke Hughes there and Owen Power the year before. His player type is kind of like a Tanev but highly highly unlikely it is at that level ever. Probably a depth or AHL dman.

I would be fine with a mid round pick instead of these guys but figure they might actually be a bit more interesting for Minny that a 4th rounder.</div></div>

Man, I have heard the exact opposite on Truscott! I even looked him up on the CapFriendly scouting reports (https://www.capfriendly.com/scouting-reports/players/jacob-truscott) and they also say he's needing to improve hid defensive responsibility to translate to the NHL.

BUT, I haven't watched him play; I'm basing what I know of the prospect on various podcasts / talking heads regarding VAN and various scouting reports. Based on what you think, I'd be more inclined to keep him and send a mid pick.
