Major trade between the Canadiens and the Ducks involving Trevor Zegras and a defenseman? It has just been proposed with Kaiden Guhle
Monday night, during a match of his Flyers, Daniel Brière made a significant trade that has been much talked about. He sent forward Cutter Gauthier to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for defenseman Jamie Drysdale and a second-round pick.
Seeing the arrival of the young player, many think that Trevor Zegras might be in his last miles with the Ducks. It didn't take long for rumors linking him to the CH to start. Knowing the American's connection with Cole Caufield and his love for the city of Montreal, it's not surprising.
On BPM Sports this Tuesday, the columnist fromMTLHockeyNow, Marco D'Amico, took advantage of his appearance with Maxime Van Houtte to make a trade proposal that will make fans react.
According to him, the CH could use its depth in defense to acquire the Ducks' forward. Even though Anaheim has a good pool of prospects in this position, few of them have NHL experience. He would therefore send a sure value, namely Kaiden Guhle.
To the astonishment of the host, D'Amico was not afraid to elaborate his point:
We're talking, in 2024, about a star defenseman draft. A lot of left-shooting defensemen. We just saw one play with the United States, Zeev Buium, an interesting one. We can talk a lot about Sam Dickinson, who plays in London.
The Canadiens are likely to draft between, let's face it, 8 and 12, you might find a defenseman. You can find a defenseman of the caliber of Kaiden Guhle in this range in this draft. You will not find a player of the caliber of Trevor Zegras" - Marco D'Amico WOW!
That's bold, very, but we like it!
However, the columnist does not say that the CH will make this transaction. He is only opening the discussion as to whether Guhle or the CH's first-round pick in 2024 could be on the table to acquire this player. Many factors can still come into play by then, including the position of the pick that Kent Hughes has in his hands.
