New York Rangers captain Jacob Trouba shocked everyone with his latest comments about his team.

The New York Rangers have been close to breaking through in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the past few years, but they haven't been able to get over the hump. With a core group led by Mika Zibanejad, Chris Kreider, Adam Fox, Artemi Panarin, and captain Jacob Trouba, the talent is there, but the team has struggled to deliver in the biggest moments.

In his first offseason interview, Trouba surprisingly admitted that this could be the last chance for this group of players to win together.

«In all likelihood this will probably be the last crack for this core. I don't think it's a secret by any means.»


It's rare for players, especially a team captain, to openly acknowledge such a situation. But after a summer filled with trade rumors, Trouba's blunt statement isn't entirely unexpected. The Eastern Conference is highly competitive, but the Rangers have the talent to contend. If their key players step up during the playoffs, they have the potential to win it all.

However, if they fall short again, Trouba's words may prove true, and the team could make big changes. It's unusual to hear a captain speak so candidly before training camp, making this a story worth following.
