Fingers crossed. Only fear that they get back a useless player or players and doesn’t save any salary space. Otherwise I’m good with whatever they get.

Otherwise I’m good with whatever they get. If we are retaining salary, I doubt we are taking back a contract. My guess is it’s futures coming back. I do wonder if Drury is trying to persuade Yzerman to also take Kakko back in the deal too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has nothing to do with a comfortable clubhouse, and fans actually have no insight at all into who's comfortable and who isn't. He's simply removing players who aren't worth their contracts during the regular season. It's completely logical and it's not personal. Peter Laviolette does not strike me as the type of coach who would have, allow, or tolerate a comfy clubhouse. And I feel the same about Drury 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they dump Goodrow and Trouba to bring in Patrick Kane, that's just going to add fuel to the comfy clubhouse narrative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not we're good. Would be an ok trade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, they're taking our second highest paid and first worst defenseman off the roster... It's not like they're not already doing a solid.

He loves to talk hockey. Has a really good source too. Or maybe it’s the water heater in his basement he talks to. There might be peyote involved.

Br4d Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 The real problem with the Trouba rumors is that everybody is using Brooks as the primary source. So when I go to read the Detroit papers all I get is cut and paste copy of the Post stories about the potential trade. I was kind of hoping to get some insight into what the Red Wings were thinking or at least dissembling to the media as they thought. Instead almost all the info was the research Brooks has done shuffled around a bit to look like original work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siddious Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Quote Despite some momentum building around a Trouba trade on Saturday, nothing materialized, and the Rangers, seemingly eager to move Trouba and all or part of his $8 million cap the next two seasons, may find that this will be a difficult transaction to complete in the window the team needs to free up cap space to make a splash on Monday, when free agency begins. A league source indicated that Trouba, who still has a no-movement clause until noon on Monday, may not be inclined to help speed this deal along, even if Rangers GM Chris Drury finds a trade fit with the Detroit Red Wings, Trouba’s hometown team. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5604224/2024/06/29/ny-rangers-jacob-trouba-trade/?source=user_shared_article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's why they bought The Athletic. Outsourced a lot of their coverage when they did that. Maybe Trouba doesn't want to go to the Red Wings? Some guys really don't want to go home.

On top of Detroit waiting to see what unfolds with Kane, Drury might also be leery about doing it unless he finds out he can net a big fish or two with the saved cap. Maybe it's only a discussion if he can net at least 1 or 2 certain free agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
