Well it’s Canada Day! Hopefully the last post in this thread is the Jets hoisting the Cup.   Enjoy the frenzy!

 

thats odd wording.  “Was scheduled to start” could mean “it started” or it could mean “but it hasn’t started yet” (for some reason). 

It happened around 8. It was about an hour. Its gonna come out soon that like the last time there were no negotiations going on.

I wonder if the Jets would choose 1 or 2 years.   The idea of 1 year would be to add leverage to a trade.  But other teams will want to speak with the player first to ensure he'd sign.  Its possible the agent's strategy is to not sign with anyone (unless the coincidence of a trade to the team he wants happened) and go to free agency.  He could put the word out that Trouba will not sign with anyone, hamstringing the Jets' ability to trade him.

In that case, Jets might choose 2 years to maximize what they get out of him.  They might have to trade him at the deadline to get maximum benefit (a team acquiring at the deadline would be more focused on short term success).

1 likely. I'd imagine hes traded b4 the season tho. I think hes willing to sign here.. But im not convinced the Jets will give him 7 million a year to do it. Jets want him at a fair price.. Like 5.5 to 6.5 long term. 7 is 2 high tho. Yeah its only 500k but in a cap world and CBA world where Trouba is an RFA meaning he has no rights really.. Play or sit pretty much, why would Jets bend over for him. Wonder how much this is Trouba and how much its his agent who has a long history of this.

I think I posted earlier that the Arbitrator has to choose either the Team offer of the Player offer.  I was wrong.  The arb can make any decision he's deems appropriate which might be either of the offers or one he comes up with himself.  So there you have it.  I was wrong.

From a bystanders point of view this looks good for Caryk. I'm telling you guys she's innocent!

If Jets win obviously 1 year for Trouba.

If it was 50.1% then it would be worth it.

In a nutshell for non-WFP peeps they have up to 48hrs to make a deal to avoid arbitration HOWEVER a quick arbitration ruling would negate that.

Same way you pretend he's a garbage defenseman and the Jets would be better off without him...?

No one thinks that Chevy is playing hardball as well...?  $4 million is a low offer but no one freaked out

My prediction:  It goes to arbitration, gets settled and then Chevy offers a million more a year for a long term deal

Like seriously, if Trouba and Tyler Myers are getting paid $5.5 million to be Jets... what should Trouba be asking for?

Majority ownership. You can move it.

Morrissey and Myers you mean? Or you meant to ask what should Morrissey ask for?

The Minnesota Wild have avoided arbitration with Matt Dumba and have signed the 23-year-old defenceman to a five-year, $30 million contract extension.

Nice contract.

6 x 6 for Trouba seems fair.
