New York Rangers captain Jacob Trouba was heavily criticized for his performance on Fridau. New York Rangers general manager Chris Drury attempted to send a message to his locker room earlier this week when he put two of the team's top stars on the trading block, but that message may not have been received so well by the players involved.

Amid a three-game losing streak and sluggish start to the season, Rangers president and general manager Chris Drury recently told all 31 other teams that a plethora of the team’s longest-tenured players are available for trade, including the 30-year-old Trouba, who is currently the team’s captain, The Post’s Mollie Walker confirmed.
