According to a recent report from the The Athletic, Trouba stated:
«I'm happy to be here, I'm excited to go into the season. Great opportunity ahead of us.»

the 2024 NHL Entry Draft that the Rangers and Detroit Red Wings were working on a deal, but ultimately nothing came out of this.
The 30-year old veteran defenseman in now approaching his sixth season with the Rangers. However, this season should be different for Trouba as he needs to prove that he is truly a valuable member to the organization.
