The names of Martin Necas and Trevor Zegras have been linked to Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens for a while now.
We know that the general manager of the Tricolore has called the Anaheim Ducks and the Carolina Hurricanes for Zegras and Necas, so there is clearly an interest.
The reputable Pierre LeBrun confirmed this information last week.
Knowing this, the majority of analysts seem to agree that a trade involving Necas or Zegras and the Montreal Canadiens should include the following four elements:
- A very promising young defenseman
- The 2024 first-round pick of the Winnipeg Jets
- A good forward prospect
- A player like Christian Dvorak.
In light of what has been circulating in the past few hours, we may have just learned which forward prospect could be involved in such a trade.
Owen Beck involved in a trade for Martin Necas or Trevor Zegras?
See in particular what David Ettedgui mentioned:
«Owen Beck, most valuable player of the Memorial Cup. Is he the missing key for Kent Hughes to complete his trade for a top-6 forward? For Trevor Zegras or Martin Necas? There is a good chance that yes. The answer by the draft.» - David Ettedgui
He believes there is a good chance Beck will be involved in a trade for a top-6 forward.
