Thread: If Trouba doesn't want to sign long term??
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>clark</b></div><div>your last phrase makes zero sense. of course trouba is going to be signed as rfa for the next two years as a jet or traded. it's in 2020 that he eligible to be a ufa, and YES, ufas walk all the time...

just try just try reading what I wrote, instead of making stuff up to appease your venom.

I wrote. "so my logic is valid. come winter 2020 and the jets are on a cup run and trouba is valuable member of the team, yea, he likely doesn't get traded." exactly as I wrote.

in your posts your said let mason and chairot walk in as ufa gee try thinking straight. just because I said ufas walk all the time (factually correct), you think it's hilarious, but when you write it, about mason and chariot...you think you're brilliant.</div></div>

whoa there Clarky.... seems like we are on different wave lengths and likely won't ever see eye on eye (which is fine). But for the record - Chiarot and Mason walking as a UFA is not even in the same ballpark as a player like Trouba walking out the door

Thread: If Trouba doesn't want to sign long term??
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>clark</b></div><div>sorry if haven't been following pro sports. here's a lesson. what every year there are about 3 UFAs per team....that as July 1 are UFAs. every TDL, teams trade futures to get that one or two upcoming ufas, that will put them over the top for a long playoff run. there are not 80 trades of upcoming ufas, because teams are so desperately crazy to trade all the ufa, before they "walk for nothing". gee, they would likely all be ufas even if they traded so there are always ufas...walking.
so my logic is valid. come winter 2020 and the jets are on a cup run and trouba is valuable member of the team, yea, he likely doesn't get traded.
now my opinion is that trouba's trade value will never be higher than it is now...summer of 2018, and I expect trouba will be traded this summer.
I know of a site like this, so many uninformed think they have to make trades...for trade value. but teams are still trying to win and don't necessarily play GM just to make trades so ufas don't walk for free. for you to think otherwise, now that's hilarious.</div></div>

agree to disagree. Find me ONE instance where a player of Trouba's value and age was allowed to walk out the door as a UFA after his RFA years.

Thread: hypothetical trade with Jets (2018 offseason)
1. This hypothetical trade will happen in the offseason. Next years Cap will go up to approx 80 000 000 and you'll have lots of cap space with all your UFA's that you'll let walk. So grammar aside that isn't a concern ;)
2. Theodore is good and improving.....so is Trouba. The argument that Theodore will be as good as Trouba in the long term is a matter of opinion doesn't go me any good to try to convince you otherwise. However, using an argument of how many points they have in the playoffs is crazy....small sample size and defencemen are about so much more than points.
3. I chose Theodore because this type of a trade makes sense for LV because they have two young stud LD (Schmidt and Theodore) and no young stud RD.....seems to make sense for both teams.
4. I like the comment above that if Trouba &gt; Theodore ....then the remaining pieces of the trade need to make up that balance. Definitely possible to tinker with the additional pieces.

Some more ideas

Thread: It's hard I tried
I love your optimism and I know you said you tried but my critique would be.....

1. No way we get Conner and Morrissey at that low a number if we sign them to 8 years. Connor may sign 3-4 years at 4 mill...but if we go to 8 he's not taking less than Ehlers. Morrissey is a top pairing LD on a team with few LD options. 8 years will be north of 5-5.5 mill.
2. Really....Myers for 6 more years? with all that money we already have on the RD? And with Poolman ready to contribute? I like Myers but we have to let him walk and slot in the cheaper Poolman.
3. Love Copp - in todays Cap era you can't pay depth forwards that much and expect to keep your stars. And Copp making more than Lowry?

I like your thoughts regarding a trade with Carolina. I've thought for years our two teams line up perfectly for a trade.
I agree Perrault (as much as I love him) will have to be moved this offseason or the next....need that cap hit to sign younger players.
