Thread: Swing for the fence
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sabres1108</b></div><div>first off the whole premise for WPG trading him is that he wants a lot of $ and wont have the cap room to sign him

if he were to sign for 6.5 WPG would lock him up long term-in trading for Risto they downgrade pretty significantly and only save like 1 mil in cap space...WPG is in win now mode they could care less about the 2nd round pick...

Trouba is gunna get 6-8 years and Risto only under contract for 3 more seasons...the trade really doesnt make sense for WPG

also Nic Hjalmarsson just got 5 mil
skjei 5.25
nate schmidt 6 mil
dumba 6 mil
ekblad 7.5 mil

trouba better than all of those players
dumba is closest but Trouba will get more


trouba just did a a year for 5.5 mil—-hes gunna sign a big ticket in offseason for sure

my guess would be 7 to 7.5 mil for 6-8 years


also if youre trading Mccabe for Burakovsky why are you also offer sheeting him?</div></div>

Trouba hasn't signed there long term because he has requested a trade out of there. He may get more than 6.5 but not much more. This is the first year he has got 40 pts
