Jacob Trouba wants to come back and play in Winnipeg. He saw the energy in the club when performing impressive comebacks, and wants to become part of that spirit once again. Sounds like something believable, but at the same time something very scripted.
If Jacob Trouba wanted to play in Winnipeg, he would’ve signed what the Jets were offering him. A six-year deal, paying him five million dollars per season. Instead he took a “bridge-deal”, something he was not attracted to earlier in the off season. Now he’s getting paid three million dollars on average throughout the next two seasons.
