        I'd really like to see Trouba in Detroit but unless retaining or taking cap back it won't work.

        I would do that and buy Greenway out

        Other ranger fans value goodrow for his “intangibles”

        Personally, I’d probably retain at most $2m on Trouba to move him with no cap coming back

        Pay a half million dollars more for less production, signed even longer? Do you secretly hate this team?

        Kreider (a former 50 goal scorer and 70+ points) for Reilly and picks is awful lol

        Nope.

        I do like his 97 playoff games and 2 cups, his 54% face offs and other things over greenway.

        I would swap Trouba and Zibanejad or put them in the same category. Only way Trouba is gone is if they buy him out, which I doubt they would do, don't think he waives his NMC (edit: forgot it drops next seasOn ot M-Ntc). Zibanejad doesn't make sense to trade for the Rangers - why purposely put a hole at 1C?- but if he's willing to waive his NMC then there would be a few teams that could make it work and that would want him.

        Trouba has a M-NTC compared to Mika’s full NMC

        Also some Duck and Red Wing fans saying they wouldn’t mind Trouba

        Ah, forgot that it drops to a M-NTC, so he would be easier to move. I still don't think the Rangers would want to move him though. It's going to require retention, the return would probably not help them get better, and they are dealing their captain.

        Mika is more important to the team, but who's to say he won't waive his NMC for a team like BOS (if they still need a 1C after FA)? WSH is the other team that I could think that could possibly use him but doubt he would waive. Maybe he waives for OTT if they are interested in trading him for Norris? Lol. NSH needs a 1C as well, but would be some futures package. So, even if they can move him won't be worth it.

        They could retain up to $2m and get a late draft pick. And it definitely would help because Trouba is a liability. He just isn’t good and whoever they sign to replace him can’t be as bad as Trouba

        Mika I can’t see waiving because of his bff lover Kreider

        Who would they replace with Trouba? If some team is taking Trouba at 6M, probably means they missed out on the FAs that are available. The Rangers would probably need to sign a 3 or 4M guy in FA, but if that happens prior to the Trouba trade. They are probably getting fleeced on the Trouba trade (adding an asset to dump him) or maybe it means they dumped Lindgren for pennies on the dollars for a couple of mid picks. Maybe they could sign a guy for 4M or under, look to see if anyone pays for Trouba, then use the second buyout window if they end up going to arb with Lindgren.

        Forgot about that lol. I was thinking of players on the same or different teams that are best buds. Forgot about them.

        I don’t know whatever RD they can sign for like $3-4m from free agency. DeMelo, Roy, Walker, chatfield, carrier, Shultz, Tanev

        Tanev would be solid but I don't think DAL lets him go. I think DeMelo and Roy would be in the 5s or high 4s. I think Walker and Carrier come in at the low 4. I expect Walker to be a fraud though lol. Schultz and Chatfield aren't going to do much better in Trouba's role probably, but I guess you save 3M or so if Trouba is traded.

        I meant the whole reason why Trouba is a liability is because he is the slowest skater and he takes himself out of the play chasing hits

        If any of them are better skaters and worry about actual defense, then the rangers automatically become better

        15 team no trade and rangers could retain like $2m

        Red wing and Duck fans on here said they wouldn’t mind him for a late round pick

        Fair point, and getting out of Trouba contract and leadership is a W even if you have to retain. Still even with retention rangers are most certainly going to have to take back a bad contract
