"Jacob joue dur tous les soirs, il nous apporte beaucoup de leadership. Jacob sait ce que je pense de lui en tant que personne et en tant que joueur et je vais garder toutes les conversations privées que j’ai avec lui ou son agent privées. Nous cherchons toujours à faire avancer l’équipe et à être la meilleure équipe possible. Je ne vais pas passer en revue joueur par joueur, qui sera là, qui ne sera pas là. Nous essayons simplement de faire de notre mieux pendant l’intersaison et de faire de notre mieux pour le camp d’entraînement."

He gone
He had something similar to say about Goody:
[[Baugh] « When you’re in the position we’re in, there’s tough decisions as a GM you have to make. Everyone is well aware of what I think of Barclay. » Called him a great Ranger.](https://x.com/Peter_Baugh/status/1807883228222542217?t=H_YYPNZL3k1Z7t-papT8Tw&s=19)
Yeah that’s not a denial.
This is why I can’t stand r/hockey and their obsession with captaincy. Drury is putting the TEAM first and not the one with a C. That’s how it has to be no matter what.
Troubas right to exercise his NTC but it’s Drurys JOB to make this team better.
It won’t always add up nicely. Need to make the difficult decisions
Basically confirming he’s gone and making it obvious Trouba and his agent are the ones leaking and making things messy
Translation: Hes gone. This has to end. Seriously. Enough is enough. If Trouba didn’t have that contract given by the previous Gm, none of this would be happening
Can we please just put him on waivers already? He’s a bad NHL defenseman, and he is actively hurting the team right now during a crucial moment in free agency. What’s more important? Putting together a cup contending team, or catering to the needs of a guy that actively costs them games?
His paintings bout to be some hardcore shiiiit
Our captain is throwing a hissy fit
Just wait until we move him and spend the money on another aging winger and defender and then throw our arms up when it fails to move the needle again.
It just sucks this trade wasn’t made this morning. Now the top free agents left are Jeff skinner, Tarasenko, and Oliver Kylington or a washed Brodie on d… the cap savings of $5.5 if we still retain the 2.5 does nothing for us this year unless there’s another trade in the cards. It would be more for next year’s cap crunch, but at that point may as well just hold onto him till the deadline or next off-season and get a better return/not have to give up assets to move him.
If Drury is being this non-committal about it, he better have the stones to waive him if a trade can’t be figured out.
Dreary needs to make hockey trades to reconfigure this roster for present and future. Trouba and Breads deals are off the books in 2 years (if not sooner for #8)
He wants us to be soft as a team. Reaves (physical player) gone, now our heavy hitter defender gonna be gone. He is an idiot
That statement is about as vague as humanly possible.
If no trade can get done just buy him out. 4.5m saved for next two seasons, 2m for two more seasons and then its DONE. What was the rumor with Detroit, Rangers would retain 5.5 or something like that? This saves more. Just do it
I was someone who usually felt people were too hard on Trouba because of the contract.
This year, however, his decision making regressed to the types of things that when Miller did them a few years ago, we said “that’s because he’s pretty new to defense and doesn’t have the defensive instincts yet”.
I wonder where Brooks got the idea Trouba would be moved indefinitely.
