NHL Insider Shares Update on a Possible Trevor Zegras Trade: Is Kent Hughes Still Interested?
As the Montreal Canadiens organization seems to really need a bit of a spark, an interesting piece of information has just surfaced.
That's the question we were asking, and we just got a clear answer from journalist Anthony Di Marco.
Yes, Trevor Zegras is still available on the trade market!
Is Kent Hughes still interested?
The Ducks continue to make Trevor Zegras available, but they're asking for a high price, Anthony Di Marco
I hear what the journalist is saying here, but at the same time, when your house has been on the market for two years, I can't help but think the price is certainly, at the very least, more flexible.
Why is there so much talk about Zegras?
Well, because he's already shown that he has the potential to become one of the best players in the world.
I don't know if that's a bold statement, but I honestly believe he might have one of the top 10 talents in the entire NHL.
Moreover, we have proof that Kent Hughes is interested, thanks to Marco Normandin's scoop, which revealed that the Montreal Canadiens had a trade lined up with the Anaheim Ducks during the 2024 draft, involving none other than Cole Caufield's best friend, Trevor Zegras.
Here's the trade they reportedly had in place:
The Canadiens and Ducks had agreed on the framework of a trade that would have sent Trevor Zegras to Montreal along with one of their second-round picks. In return, the Canadiens would have traded young defenseman Logan Mailloux as well as their later first-round pick (21st overall) in 2024.

A storyline to keep in mind:
