New York Rangers captain and defenseman Jacob Trouba revealed to reporters on Tuesday that he suffered a broken ankle during the regular season and played the entirety of the playoffs while being hampered by it. #highlights #hockey #nhl

Just false. He “broke” his ankle in the middle of the season and was fully cleared to play. He was not playing on a broken ankle.

It’s rediculous trying to make an excuse for this guy He’s horrible Coming from a die hard Ranger fan

[@orlfane1622]

@@vinpags13 The ankle was healed. LOL Trying to make him like Jack Youngblood who played in the super bowl against the Steelers with a broken leg.

Im sorry but what the hell do you know about this? Do you have some insider information that we don’t???

[@SurfinCowboy5615]

@@podermon4845 it’s called science, d0pey. If an ankle is broken in March, it’s healed by end of May. This is basic stuff. If he’s cleared to play by medical professionals, it’s clearly not broken. Is it hard going through like so benighted?

His ankle has nothing to do with his hockey iq

As a citizen of the city of Miami I can tell you that all of our sports teams are rivals with NYC teams, and no city in the history of humanity blames everything and anything on injuries when they get their butts kicked. Jets... Mets... Knicks... Hate them all, the Rangers are not really our rivals, the lightening are, but put them on the list those complaining Bas&%'s

Probably from launching himself off the ice to try elbow someone

Trouba wasn't his usual abrasive self in the playoffs. Necas and Rodrigues were lucky Trouba wasn't 100%

[@itzbrady9213]

Buddy purposley elbowed him in the head most people are surprised that he didnt get suspended

[@kja6336]

“Trouba doesn’t hit as hard” shows him missing a hit that led to a goal. Dude has been horrible, if his completely healed ankle has made him a little slower than he already was then he should just retire. The league won’t miss him, or care

[@Hockeistguyalive]

No he wasn’t. He also won’t be a Ranger next season.

[@tobinkern5389]

Trouba is a clown of a captain. Might as well be Reaves as their captain. He is worthless

[@taylort9219]

Playing is a stretch
