Sign me up for a Risto and Nylander for Trouba with an extension in place obviously. The Trouba and Ehlers for Risto and Reinhart deal is also pretty even for both sides. This offseason should be another eventful one for us, at least I hope.

I can't see the Jet trading Touba to the Sabres for Risto as they have 4 NHL ready d-men in their system ready to take Trouba's place. I think the Jets would want a #1 center or a # 2 center with a first round draft choice and Eichel worth way more than Trouba, so no trade to be made that helps the Jets.

you think they'll get a 1 center or 2 center plus a first-rounder?

that might be a little steep

I think I'd want an extension before trading. Too risky otherwise.

I'm sure they would. Unfortunately for them, they too are bound by the forces of reality

You can keep Ehlers, I wouldn't give up Reinhart for him.

Truba is a nice D-man but there is no way he fetches a #1 center and a first round pick..

I would absolutely kadri in a Sabres Uniform... Eichel, Kadri, Mitts down the Middle would be great....

I would try to trade for Kadri first if that don't work then try to get Duchene in FA...

Nice article.

To Buffalo: Trouba and Perreault
To Winnipeg: Ristolainen and _______

Sheary?


Allow me throw a wrench in here:

To Buffalo: Trouba and Ehlers
To Winnipeg: Ristolainen and Reinhart

You want culture change? That's your culture change. Straight-up hockey trade

- jcragcrumple


BUT...does that free up CAP space for da jets. Any deal for Trouba has to help the Jets navigate the CAP, if not....the trade would be counter-productive of what they need the most....CAP space...

Nope to Kadri

He is one more hit away from being suspended for 20 games

Dude just can't figure it out.

At this point bringing him in would be adding another oft injured Bogo type.

You're only gonna get him for 60 games

Risto is locked in at 5 and change. Trouba is gonna be looking for, what, around $8.5? Maybe north of that? They could offer Reinhart a long-term deal, say $7x7. In any case, Reinhart is only making $3.5 in '19-'20

There's definitely savings there imo

The Jets have too many right-handed defensemen already (assuming they intend to re-sign Tyler Myers), so Ristolainen actually wouldn't work in this scenario. Not to mention, the Jets need to either bring back Kevin Hayes or find their #2 Center instead of chasing one every trade deadline. So, as much as I would love to see Trouba in a trade to Buffalo... it appears unlikely, unless they are interested in cheaper alternatives like Nylander and others. However, a Trouba to the Leafs deal might make some sense for both teams, unfortunately... if the Jets are willing to take Kadri and another player.

point taken, but re-signing myers isn't a given and as for Trouba to Toronto, they're having big trouble finding cap-space right now without the $8m or so Trouba will be getting
