Breaking Down All The Latest New York Rangers' Trade Rumors It’s safe to say that Jacob Trouba has moved on with his life. Over a month after the New York Rangers traded Jacob Trouba to the Anaheim Ducks, the veteran defenseman was asked about his messy past in The Big Apple. Rangers general manager attempted to trade Trouba over the summer before it ultimately was made public and spiraled out of control. As the Rangers began to struggle this season, Drury sent out a league-wide memo indicating that he was open for business while specifically mentioning Trouba’s name as a possible player he would be willing to trade. Things quickly escalated and Trouba was shipped off to Anaheim after the Rangers threatened to place him on waivers if he did not waive his no-trade clause. “How it went down leaving… I’ll deal with it later. If there’s anything to deal with it,” Trouba said via Paul Friesen of The Winnipeg Sun.

But we’ve got a pretty good road map forward, with me and the family.” Does Trouba have any regrets? “No,” Trouba said.

He’s continuing to get accustomed to this new environment as he builds more relationships with his Ducks teammates. “You’re a little more reserved,” Trouba said.

Obviously they’ve got to trust you and that comes with time.” In 11 games with the Ducks, Trouba has recorded one assist while averaging 20:16 minutes.
