It's Confirmed: Former Rangers GM confirms major trade rumour surrounding Trouba
Former New York Rangers general manager confirmed trade rumours surrounding Jacob Trouba.
Since the beginning of the offseason, rumours have been speculating that Jacob Trouba is available for trade from the New York Rangers.
There was even reports that the Rangers were going to send Trouba to the Detroit Red Wings, until he heard up this and changed his no-trade clause to include the Red Wings.
Now it seems #Sabres are most likely. Working to see whos going back to NYR. #NHL
Since these reports came out, exposing the Rangers plans, general manager Chris Drury has been receiving a lot of criticism.
However former Rangers GM Neil Smith joined a podcast and discussed whether or not the criticism is deserved, during the discussion he ripped into the team for how they have been handling the trade talks of Jacob Trouba.
Neil Smith also confirmed the New York Rangers lined up a trade with the Detroit Red Wings without any communication with Trouba and his agency, even after he Trouba was ready to work with the organization to get a trade done.
Now the New York Rangers are left with a major mess to sort out, if they wish to eventually trade Trouba. Considering many teams are aware of the situation and messy it's gotten, it leaves fewer teams interested in making a trade.
