Rangers' Trocheck Trade Rumors Swirl
1 Mar
Summary
- Vincent Trocheck is reportedly a likely trade candidate.
- Minnesota Wild are considered a prime destination.
- Trocheck has a contract with a 12-team no-trade clause.

Vincent Trocheck of the New York Rangers is reportedly a prime candidate for a trade before the March 6 deadline, according to former NHL player Mike Rupp. Rupp indicated that the Minnesota Wild could be an ideal landing spot for Trocheck.
Rupp highlighted the Wild's persistent struggles with penalty killing as a key reason for interest in Trocheck, who performed well on Team USA's penalty kill. Minnesota General Manager Bill Guerin's aggressive trade history and ties to USA Hockey further fuel these discussions.
Trocheck is currently in the fourth year of a seven-year contract with a $5.625 million cap hit, extending through the 2028-29 season. A 12-team no-trade clause in his deal presents a potential hurdle for any transaction.
Despite the Rangers' current slump, sitting last in the Metropolitan Division, Trocheck has maintained strong individual performance with 12 goals and 24 assists for 37 points in 44 games this season. His contract and a potential trade could become a significant move for both clubs.
