I had a strong feeling he was going to the NYC area. At the end of the day, NYR had the best return for WPG. Devils don't have a young roster top 6 D and Ty Smith is probably still 1-2 years away from NHL ready.

NEW YORK: "Who do you want Chev?"
WINNIPEG: "We'll take Pionk for Trouba"
TORONTO: "Do you want Brown for Laine?"
WINNIPEG: "F*** no ... you can have Connor"
EDMONTON: "Hay fellas ... any interest in Lucic?"

That's a laughably bad return for a guy like Trouba.

Meanwhile Rags defense:

Skjei - Trouba
Hajek - Fox
Guy - DeAngelo

I'm just gonna assume this means both Staal and Shattenkirk are gone.

I really wanted Trouba for many times in trades... This seems like they barely gave up anything for their best D-man... I guess long as it works out better than Shattenkirk signing... Jets will be lucky to make playoffs with all the horrible moves that team is doing lately smile.

2020 Hindsight: this trade was an absolute steal for the Winnipeg Jets. They got a 45 point defenceman (Neal Pionk) and one of arguably the best prospect defenceman in the NHL (Ville Heinola), and the Rangers got a defenceman who got 27 points, thats not bad until you see he is making $8,000,000 UNTIL 2026. So the Jets won this trade (as of 2020) by a mile.

Not to mention that the Jets wouldn’t even have been able to keep Trouba for more than a year.

I mean DeAngelo is an ELITE offensive defensemen, Who knows what would've happened if it was DeAngelo though.

Just Poink for what was going to be one year of Trouba was a good trade for the Jets. The growth of Poink made a win for Winnipeg. Where the Rangers failed was signing that overpaid contract for Trouba.
No way he should be paid as a top ten Dman in the league

So the overall trade:

New York Rangers
Jacob Trouba
Brendan Lemieux

Winnipeg Jets
Neal Pionk
134th Pick in 2019
26 Games of Kevin Hayes


Now 2\1,2 years of Brendan Lemieux

Man people actually thought the rangers won this.

As soon as I saw the Trouba deal I knew it was leading to a

When Pionk played on NYR, he was one of the worst dmen in the league. Now he's very strong on WPG. What a difference a change of scenery makes!
