And if he signs long term July 1st when he can? The point everyone misses in all this and it's been said by ppl with more knowledge about this situation than all of us combined is The jets Don't want to trade him. They won't unless they get their price. Once again small **** syndrome from ppl who live here. Who gives a **** if he likes it here or not... he's a Jet and will be until the Jets decide the best thing to do is trade him. That won't be happening anytime soon.

Trouba never did say anything awful about Winnipeg. He never said he hates it here. He's actually said the opposite and happy he's back. Perhaps the issue really was about usage and everything else was just made up fan or media speculation cuz winnipeg has small **** syndrome so it has to be he wants out... What if it was about usage or about a family issue? Why is it different for Hamonic who asked for a trade and for Trouba? In the end both rescinded their request

Did you say the same when Hamonic rescinded his trade request?

He's a better option than Postma Stuart Chiarot and Melchiori but it wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't play tonight

Interesting article http://www.todaysslapshot.com/nichols-notes/dreger-tim-hortons-meeting-helped-turn-tide-trouba-stalemate/

They won't tho. Postma will be press boxed with Stu when everyone is healthy. Switching up buff and Morrissey is dumb. I'd imagine trouba will be top 4 so they can showcase him. Buff Morrissey Trouba Enstrom Myers Chiamelchistuart

Edmonton still overpaying free agents Tho. That's what free agency Is all about. Lucic got a long term big money deal. So did Sekera. It's about overpaying. Jets won't do that yet.

Most of the time guys that make it to free agency aren't guys you should be going after. I mean it's more than likely that player signs before then. Also... if a player does make it to free agency... let's use Kevin Shattenkirk as an example... if the blues don't trade him he's going to be a free agent.... even if he's traded... regardless he will more than likely be a free agent. Why? Because he has pretty much already said he wants to play closer to home in the eastern US... Boston is the rumored spot... so he's gonna be a free agent but really.... he's not because he's already got his preferred destination in mind. Regarding the Jets they will never be major players on the free agent market.

If he's here I'll bet he does. Buff Morrissey Trouba Enstrom Myers Chiamelchistuart

All jacob has to do is go out there and bust his ass and maybe stick up for a teammate and there you go. Don't be surprised to see jacob involved in a fight his first game back to show his family he's happy to be back and he's got their backs

It's a different situation and time tho. Will some guys have hard feelings towards him? Sure. Will most welcome him back tho? You bet. It's a business and every player understands this. The Jets are a young tight group... a family if you will... Trouba is now a part of that family again. I'm not worried about the players not welcoming him back because 95 percent of them when interviewed all said they want him back. Perreault and little didn't but wheeler scheif and others did. Those players know the situation better than anyone of us and anyone in the media or ex players or players on other teams. Trust me when I say... they all know what was actually going on.

Most talk is fan speculation tho. Chevy even said that pretty much. The whole doesn't want to play in winnipeg or Canada thing was debunked. I think myers or enstrom is dealt before the expansion draft . Jets will not trade trouba. I don't see it happening. Or they protect 4 D and 4 forwards and lose a Dano Armia Lowry type who are a lot easier to replace

Still think it's likely that he signs long term and Myers is dealt. Jets don't want to trade trouba. They won't. Unless they get back that 22 23 yr old top 4 lhd. I don't think that happens.

Burmi lol. That's step 1 in waiving him to the Moose.

If he puts up good to great numbers he will get more than 5.5

Stafford to Vancouver makes some sense actually. They are looking for a 20 goal scorer. Stafford fits

The thing ppl miss in all this. .. Jets Never wanted to trade him and only would if they got back a top 4 22 23 year old LHD. Until someone offers that.... Trouba is a Jet.

Due to penalties his AAV is roughly 3.03 this year and 2.8 and a bit next.

In reality he could sign an extension July 1st

No. He's still rfa for 2 years after this contract.

Murray? Dumba not comparables? They got 2 yr bridge deals

Why would they. Hes better than melchiori Chiarot Stuart Postma etc. Could they? Sure. Will they? No. The moose are off to California

Dreger. Lawless etc don't expect him to be dealt unless the Jets get exactly what they want for him and that's a similar aged LHD. Those players are few and far between. He will be here a while still... lawless and Dreger even thinks it's possible he signs long term July 1st when he can.
