Jacob Trouba issues shocking statement on Chris Drury following recent trade speculation
Jacob Trouba's name was swirling in trade rumors during the summer, as the New York Rangers wanted to clear cap space to sign Igor Shesterkin.
The trade-in question would have sent the Rangers Captain to the Detroit Red Wings, but with a 15-team No trade clause he opted to stay in New York.
There was much outrage due to the fact that Trouba reportedly shot it down, and despite the trade talks, his relationship with GM Chris Drury remained status quo.
But this time around, as the talks have intensified yet again, it appears whatever relationship there is between the GM and player is dissolving.
Trouba would confirm that he and GM Chris Drury haven't been on speaking terms after the news would arise again.
The 30-year-old confirmed that he hasn't talked to Rangers general manager Chris Drury as of right now.
Trouba has responded solemnly and has felt that his best answer to GM Chris Drury doing his job, was doing his best work on the ice.
Trouba seems to have realized there's no way for him to stop the future, other than to exercise a contractual clause once more.
While he seems reserved in answering the media, there's no way of countering the fact that GM Chris Drury could kill two birds with one stone, by moving Trouba's contract against his will.
In the meantime, the Rangers will play against the Carolina Hurricanes tomorrow and will have to demonstrate they're still a force to deal with in the Metropolitan Division.
The defeat from the Blues yesterday must be weighing on the player's minds, giving the current talk on the wire.
