While everyone has been talking about Martin Necas for several days, trade rumors involving Trevor Zegras and the Montreal Canadiens have quieted down.
However, we just got a big surprise from a solid source.
Negotiations are still ongoing between Kent Hughes and the Anaheim Ducks for a possible trade involving Cole Caufield's best friend. Discussions have resumed!
Pierre LeBrun announces that Anaheim and Montreal have reconnected for a transaction involving Trevor Zegras
Wow, what a turn of events. We love it.
«From Pierre LeBrun's latest text, published about thirty minutes ago:
"I also believe that Anaheim and Montreal have reconnected for a trade involving Trevor Zegras, but I'm not convinced the Habs will be extremely aggressive in this matter."
The Canadiens' interest in Zegras is real. But they won't go all out to acquire him.
In short, he is an option, but only if the price makes sense for them!
Oh, and he also re-re-reconfirmed that the Canadiens have an interest in Martin Necas." - Marc-Olivier Beaudoin
It's great news to learn that Kent Hughes is trying to acquire Trevor Zegras. It's good to know that he wants him but won't overpay to get him either.
All good news! At the right price, why not?
The Canadiens reportedly recontacted the Ducks about Zegras in the last few hours, which is a major last-minute development.
Details will follow.
Zegras, 23, the 9th overall pick in 2019, has amassed 154 points in 211 career NHL games. In his first two full seasons, he recorded 61 points in 75 games and 65 points in 81 games.
Would you trade, for example, the 26th overall pick + Jayden Struble + Owen Beck for Zegras?
Clearly, Kent Hughes is active behind the scenes, and clearly, action is picking up on the NHL trade market, as it does every June.
