• Rangers' Jacob Trouba: Sets up empty-netter

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Trouba logged an assist, three shots on goal, two hits, two PIM and seven blocked shots in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Islanders. Trouba started the year with four assists over the first three games before going cold on offense. Despite the lack of points, he's logged at least 20 minutes of ice time in seven of 11 appearances so far. He's up to five helpers, 21 shots on net, 19 hits, 33 blocked shots, 13 PIM and a plus-6 rating. With Trouba playing better than he did last year, he should be able to hold onto a top-four role as a physical defensive specialist.

• Rangers' Jacob Trouba: Two helpers in big win

  26D ago • By RotoWire

  Trouba picked up two assists while adding four shots, a team-high five blocked shots, two PIM, a hit and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Penguins. He was a rock in his own end of the ice, helping Igor Shesterkin to his 16th career shutout, and Trouba chipped in offensively with two first-period helpers. The 30-year-old blueliner only managed three goals and 22 points in 69 regular-season games in 2023-24, but his true value lies elsewhere -- Trouba's averaged 205.3 hits and 185.3 blocked shots over the last three seasons.
