I’m not questioning his leadership or his toughness,
of course that has value to u guys

But that doesn’t mean he’s good defensively either

Only your fandom is keeping u from being able to separate how valuable his “glue” is from whether or not he plays good defense

Twist it all you want, if he was a Sabre, you'd be in the wild card race, so would we and your young sketchy D would be learning. Funny he's exactly what you need

Disagree
We need more than leadership & “glue”
We need someone who is good at defense,
which Trouba is objectively not

Sorry your fandom blinds you to this

You're going off of tmz reports lol. BS is still a 3rd pairing and still learning and cannot play Troubas heavy minutes. You have no clue but keep desperately trying. I watch and know and definitely laugh at your hate for him. Proof is in His teams record.

There’s 20+ other players contributing to your team winning
It’s LAUGHABLE that you’re just giving the credit to Trouba

I hope u guys make the mistake of continuing to give Trouba big minutes
Bc the only thing that actually does- is prevent you from winning the Cup

He can’t play defense
And u can’t make a reasonable argument….
besides GLUE that is
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You keep poking without even watching lol. We are loaded with non physical guys yet we are a mean machine. Like it or not it starts with Trouba lol. Then, again like it or not tmzers, Goodrow & Lindgren. Trouba makes the rest of the team puff their chest, I see it every game when he nails people with a snarl lol. Cuylle BScheider & Edstrom are learning, oh oh!
But you're right! He's big, lumbers around, simply stays back, zero offence and makes a few bad passes.
Btw no he's not just a point getting d like you said he is!?
We suck without him, period. Figure out your own team...

We have no superstars, our stars have been quiet, our offensive depth is lacking, yet our captain is leading us steadily/consistently at/near the top.
What would you know about vet leadership lol.
Enjoy the show! You should watch, these games actually matter

You do realize that someone can be a GOOD LEADER and ALSO not play good defensively….. right?
Wow dude

Trouba is a good player
Just not defensively
And yes, i agree he has leadership skills & is tough
He’s just not great in his own end

Lol
I guess we’ll just have to agree to disagree,
since clearly neither of us are budging

Sabres would be interested in Schneider imo though
