OccamsRazor Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Well now we can put to rest the Trouba for Ghost trade rumors.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 So is that the 1st pick back to the Jets they traded for Hayes??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yave1964 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Wow I thought it was going to be more than that. Pionk is a decent puck mover on the back end but very raw, plus the 20th pick I am surprised it was the best offer that they were able to get. Win for the Rangers.

Podein25 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I don't think it's that bad of a return, Pionk is a pretty decent RH 23 yr old Dman. He was an NCAA all-star. Smart, offensively minded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Podein25 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Also: every GM in the league knows that Trouba is never staying with the Jets, so their reaction when Chevy calls to say: "hey, Trouba is available" is not: "oh, amazing what an opportunity!" It's: "I was wondering when you'd call. I'll give you this pile of dog sh!t for him." So, for anyone saying the Jets shoulda got more for him, I give you: reality. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachX Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Well i guess that ends that! Flyers could have offered a better package, so i'm guessing they werent really after him. Maybe that 11 pick is more important to them, or perhaps they have another guy in the crosshairs. I still think they are happy with what they have and ghost ain't going anywhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the original reason Trouba didn't want to stay? He played for a contender, now he plays for...um, the Rangers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyers could have offered more. Thats suggests they didnt really want him or are targeting someone else. Ghost aint going nowhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I am currently sacrificing a Bauer Vapor 1X Lite ADV Pro Stock Composite Hockey Stick to the Hockey Gods. with the expectation that trouba doesn't sign in NY and or he does but for a cap crippling number that he never lives up to ! Also I hate the rangers and think player and team deserve each other, did I say I hate the Rangers ? This is a great day ! Zero assest spent on that prima donna.
