Yeah, I dunno. I still think Trouba is trading somewhat off his draft status - he's 24, posted pretty dead average advanced stats and has never had a 10 goal season and Winnipeg had to move him for guys they wanted to sign more.
I don't think it's a bad trade by the Rangers but I don't think it's a slam dunk given the contract he's going to get for a guy who is simply solid in his own end. Those aren't the kind of defensemen who are getting paid anymore.
