TORONTO – It sounds like Jacob Trouba is ready to do more than just plead his case. “(Trouba) has ripped the door off (his coach’s office) and he wants in,” Maurice said following Thursday’s morning skate. “We’ll have to talk about it for Saturday.”The only thing working against Trouba right now is a lack of practice time for the Jets. Although Trouba was on the ice for Thursday’s morning skate, the Jets used Friday as a mandatory day off under the terms of the collective bargaining agreement. The Jets (47-20-10) have five games left in the regular season and after missing 20 with an ankle injury, you can be sure Trouba wants to find a rhythm before the Stanley Cup playoffs arrive.
