[LeBrun] Rangers still trying to get a Trouba trade done. Hearing the Ducks are still among the teams in trade conversations with NYR. But hearing the Blue Jackets are out.

1. thank fucking god

   we don’t need any (more) negative press.

2. That’s fine, would only have been worth it if we got some assets out of it anyway.

3. That’s a bummer. I was looking forward to the other assets we’d get back to be honest. I love Don weaponizing our cap space

4. Would love to know what the conversations were tbh. With how quickly this developed, I’m guessing it was as simple as Waddell saying something like a 1st just to take him, and NYR said no.

5. I wonder if since this is a “not happy” and “forced” situation, that Waddell doesn’t want that shit around

6. Curious if this would be a case of “subtraction by addition.” Yes we might gain a player and assets, but would we also gain a new headache/issues? I do not know Trouba at all, but reading the various posts/opinions: maybe the locker room you are cultivating doesn’t need it. (Let alone get a player who might not want to be here)

7. If we’re out it is probably for the best.

8. Yeah looks like he just went to Anaheim officially

9. Honestly in the end I’d just imagine he didn’t want to waive his NTC to come here

   He just got dealt to Anaheim and it’s sounding like they were the only interested team that wasn’t listed in his NTC

10. Looks like Anaheim gave up assets for trouba. What

11. Verbeek has to be dumb to give up pick ​for him. but maybe we can give him call and ask if he is willing to give up few picks for severson. it might work you never know

12. Of course he has no trade for us. Fucking New Yorkers lol
