"I don't know. I was just happy for it all to be over with. You know, it's a stressful waiting game whenever you're in talks like that. So for me, it was just a roller coaster of emotions. And now that it's done with for now is nice."
"The Rangers' retool, which general manager Chris Drury announced in his Jan. 16 message to the fans, will continue into the summer and next season. And all of the things about Trocheck that made him so attractive to Stanley Cup-contending teams - that he's a quality two-way center who can kill penalties, play on the power play and win faceoffs - will continue to make him a desirable commodity this summer and at next year's deadline."
"It is what it is. The trade deadline's over. I can't get traded the rest of the year, and I'll just play my game."
Vincent Trocheck was not traded at the NHL deadline despite being in discussions with other teams.

Trocheck acknowledged that while the deadline has passed, the Rangers' retool will continue into the summer, meaning his status as a desirable commodity for contending teams remains unchanged.
