So, what do teams have to give up to sign Trouba?

Depends on what they offer him.  From http://www.colliganhockey.com/nhl-rfa-compensation-rules-2016/

 Calculated Offer Sheet Amount  Draft Pick Compensation
$1,239,226 or below  None
Over $1,239,226 to $1,877,615  Third Round
Over $1,877,615 to $3,755,233  Second Round
Over $3,755,233 to $5,632,847  First Round & Third Round
Over $5,632,847 to $7,510,464  First Round, Second Round, and Third Round
Over $7,510,464 to $9,388,080  Two First Rounds, Second Round, and Third Round
Over $9,388,080  Four First Rounds

 

There are a number of additional rules when it comes to draft pick compensation. Here are a few key highlights (please see CBA Article 10.4 for full details):

  • Teams must use their own original draft picks for purposes of offer sheet compensation. They cannot acquire picks from other teams, however, they can trade away their own picks and then re-acquire them at a later date.
  • Teams owing picks for amounts up to $7,510,464 must have those picks available in next year’s draft (2017).
  • Teams owing two picks in the same round must have them available in the next three drafts (or three picks in the next four drafts, etc)

Here is the big one:

  • If the original team chooses to accept the terms of the offer sheet, they are also not allowed to trade the player for one year from the date of exercising their right to match.  (i.e. if Jets match an offer by another team, they can't trade Trouba for one calendar year.)

That's a lot to give up. He wants $8 mill a year. No team in their right mind would give up two first round, second & third round players for Trouba. Maybe McDavid but even then...

And if he can't sign for less to try get around the draft picks (say like $4 million) because the Jets will match it and make him play.  The contract offer one signs is the contract they have to sign with the original team too.

There was a lot of talk around July 1st about the Bruins, but  the Bruins have traded away their 2nd and 3rd in 2017.  That would mean that then the Bruins would have to make an offer to Trouba > $9.388,080 per season as the only compensation they could send back was the four first rounders.

Imagine 4 first rounders. Whoa. (Where does he sign?)

Bottom line.  If he wants to play in the nhl... he has 2 options. . 1. Sign with the Jets. 2. Sit until he is traded. Jets will not let a 22 year old RFA who has earned nothing and has zero rights tell them what they can do. He won't be traded until someone offers what the jets want.

Ummm no. That's why I said "who would NJ give up?" See, they need offense there, that's why they traded for Taylor Hall. If Hall is a bust there (which will take a year or two to determine) then they would but Trouba will be long gone by then.

I was joking KK.  You should know that by now.
