And it's a pretty major development.
According to renowned insider Frank Seravalli, the Ducks reportedly no longer believe in Zegras.
If that's truly the case, that they no longer believe in him and have given up on him, it's clearly over for Zegras there.
At this point, it's just a matter of time before he is actually traded.
In fact, if the Ducks had received a good trade offer, Zegras would probably already be traded.
Wow.
When you no longer believe in a player at all, why keep him on your team?
This will definitely be a fascinating story to follow, but clearly, if Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens truly want to acquire Zegras, the opportunity is right there.
For discussion's sake, would you trade Kirby Dach for Trevor Zegras?
According to Marco Normandin a few weeks ago, Logan Mailloux was even included in some trade discussions with the Ducks, so it seems they clearly value Mailloux.
If I were Kent Hughes, I would definitely make an attempt to acquire Cole Caufield's best friend, but not at any cost either.
Trevor Zegras, 23 years old, has accumulated 162 points, including 58 goals, in 231 career NHL games. He currently has 8 points in 20 games this season, just like a certain Kirby Dach. (Coincidentally.)
Zegras earns $5.75 million per year until 2026.
