New York Rangers may cut ties with Jacob Trouba after new report
The New York Rangers surprised many by naming Jacob Trouba captain two years ago, but it now appears they may be ready to cut ties with the physical defenseman.
After being eliminated by the Florida Panthers in the eastern conference finals, the New York Rangers have an off-season ahead of them where they will need to make some changes.
One of these changes may be a buyout or trade of their captain, Jacob Trouba.
"Normally, a team might take the patient approach and give a respected leader and longtime core player like Trouba another shot to bounce back. But with Artemi Panarin, Mika Zibanejad, Chris Kreider, and Vincent Trocheck all on the wrong side of 30, there's extra urgency for the Rangers to win a Cup before their window closes. New York can't afford to waste any chances.
Finding a trade partner for Trouba would be the ideal scenario, even if it requires retaining a bit of salary. That might be complicated, though, because he has a full no-movement clause that transitions into a 15-team no-trade list as of July 1.
If a trade isn't possible, could the Rangers consider a buyout? It's clearly a long shot, but the math is palatable. Buying Trouba out would create $4 million of cap relief for each of the next two seasons at the expense of a $2 million dead cap charge for 2026-27 and 2027-28."
