Rangers captain Jacob Trouba is facing criticism in New York following his comments to the media during the post-elimination press conference.
Jacob Trouba and the New York Rangers were defeated by the Florida Panthers in the Eastern Conference Finals last night, ending their playoff run without a championship.
The 2024 Stanley Cup playoffs have been thrilling so far. Last night, the Panthers eliminated the New York Rangers, who had won the Presidents' Trophy, proving they were the superior team.
After the loss, Rangers captain Jacob Trouba expressed his disappointment.
#NYR captain Jacob Trouba: «What we built as a team here, it just felt special this year. It felt like we had something in this room. It was a bond. Probably too soon to elaborate.»
Trouba faced criticism for his role in the first goal the Rangers conceded. He attempted to check an opponent but missed, allowing the Panthers to advance and Sam Bennett to score the opening goal . This mistake was crucial in the one-goal game.
Now, Trouba and the Rangers will watch from home as the Panthers move on to compete against the winner of the Dallas Stars vs. Edmonton Oilers series for the Stanley Cup.
