What does a residency mean exactly? It not in his contract to not be able to be traded because of a spouses residency. wtf man

For clarification, are you Tom?

This entire Trouba saga and by extension his wife’s occupation, is part and parcel of the entire team. They’re very soft.

Tampa has been in the league 30 years and now you want to adjust it?

Then what about the Canadian teams? How ill that tax adjustment work?

I'm done here, just desperately trying to have them make it official

I cant believe how difficult that is


talking to people about a new place though I'll keep you in loop

Wow your last few posts have been as a 5 year old not getting his way. I dont get you, whatever, you definitely need help. You are truly obsessed with Tom. Wow

You dont need to get banned, just leave as you have said so many times and just come back when the Rangers win the Cup.

Ok but seriously what exactly do you want the team to do in this situation? They can’t trade him if no team is offering to trade, which they apparently aren’t given his reluctance to be traded. Drury can waive or buy him out, which very well may happen if a trade doesn’t materialize. So what is soft here

I know a lot are disappointed about the past two days. I am as well. But the rangers are still a good team heading into the season, even if no more changes are made. Maybe some kids get a shot. But I’m not upset about not spending big and creating problems in the future. I think they are still a playoff team. The roster on day 1 of the season isn’t what wins the cup. It’s the roster in the playoffs. Maybe not spending money now will give us lots more options at the deadline to fix the issues we discover during the season.

A doctor residency is needed to get your graduate medical degree. She already has her pre-med, but the residency (working at a hospital learning from other doctors) is needed to get the graduate degree. I could be off a little. But agreed that it shouldn’t be part of the trade discussions. A lot of players spouses have jobs. She could also probably transfer, but not sure on that.

A physicians license is non-transferrable from state to state. They would have to go through an application process to apply for a license in that state which can be time consuming. It took me over 2 months to get my nursing license in California.

I think you could fix it by having a tax adjusted cap. So the rangers could have a higher gross cap than a Florida team for example. So that the net dollars the players make after taxes are equivalent.
- banger94



Then what about the Canadian team? Im not up on there tax system but Im sure its different.

It will never happen anyway, once you go dont that road what else can be adjusted? Cost of Living, House prices, fuel prices, it would open a can of worms.

This whole narrative that it’s his wife’s fault is a sad spin and total click bait. How would anyone on twitter even find that very personal info out? It’s garbage.

I’m so (frank)ing done with the fans of this team (especially a select few here).

His wife probably doesn’t know what a right defenseman is, but she’s to blame?

There is not a simple math solution for this. If there is, you havent presented it.

7 years contracts dont age well.

That was the first signing that destroyed this so called rebuild.

That's the media for you.

If Drury wants Trouba gone, then buy him out and let the chips fall where they may.

Look, dig your heels in as much as you want, but I’m telling you there are ways to make the numbers work so every team is on the same field, regardless of team location. It’s financially and mathematically possible. If you don’t want to be open minded to something like that, that’s on you.

Why would you buy him out if you could facilitate a trade im so confused? The buyout window isn’t open right now

I would very surprised if he's traded at this point. Everyone in the league knows the issue.

So if he wants him gone, he's gonna have to buy him out. Thats all I'm saying.

And this whole "wife" mess was created by the media. Not Drury, not Trouba, not the players. They figured he's gonnab trade trouba cause he asked for his list a day early. Then the speculation started.

Oh and I got suspended on here recently for telling a random troll who came in here I’d bang his mom basically. So it’s possible. Someone just has to direct a mod to it
