Peter Tessier: How might the Trouba situation unfold A long read on how this situation came to be, why it's probably coming to an end and how it might end with Jacob Trouba's contract.

There shouldn't be agents anymore. They're nothing but leeches, and are only in it for themselves.

I think that the whole minutes thing was PR bullpoop, and that he just doesn't want to play in Winnipeg unless they overpay his market value. But that's just me.

I see Trouba signing a bridge deal and the Jets trading him before its complete.

Get'er done Chevy!! Like Peter said, this was only a tactic to get more money, don't think Trouba really wants out of Winnipeg. Looking forward to seeing play beside Byfuglien in the near future!! I'm guessing 6 years at 5.25/year

I'm betting more like $5.25 for 4-5 years. It won't be nay longer than that.

Hey, congrats on the great start! It's amazing what a team can do in as little as 10 years...

Its crazy what happens, when you have a good GM. Only 8 Roster players form last years opening night on this years.

Sure hope this is true Peter...

If Trouba gets back by the end of November and we get Little back at about the same time...this team is gonna rock.

The game last night was awesome...you can actually feel the change inside the MTSC

If we are to believe Dreger on TSN, and Trouba does indeed not want to play in Canada,
then I hope we trade him to Carolina or New Jersey or someplace similar.
A little history...
Hawerchuk wanted a trade - he wound up in Buffalo.
Kane wanted a trade - he also would up in Buffalo.
For 5.5 million a year, i would play left side defence pretty much anywhere.
