Trevor Zegras Trade and Rumors: Good News for Kent Hughes and the Canadiens as the Philadelphia Flyers Pull Out
The Trevor Zegras derby has not finished causing a stir in Montreal, especially after what the renowned Pierre LeBrun just declared.
Here, he confirms that Kent Hughes indeed called the GM of the Anaheim Ducks to initiate a trade involving Zegras.
He also confirms that the Ducks are open to listening.
Four or five teams including the Canadiens in the Trevor Zegras derby
According to what Pierre LeBrun mentioned last night on TSN, there are 4-5 teams that have called the Anaheim Ducks on this matter and who would be in the running (including the HABS).
This aligns with what the majority of experts were telling us.
However, other than the Montreal Canadiens, one of these five interested teams (according to several reliable sources) was the Philadelphia Flyers.
Well, we can forget about them!
According to what Philadelphia journalist Anthony Di Marco just reported, the Flyers have withdrawn from the Trevor Zegras derby.
This is great news for Kent Hughes and the CH, because it means less competition but also because the Flyers have (just like Montreal) a lot of trade capital to offer.
It will be really interesting to see the outcome of this case in the coming weeks/months, but we can definitely believe in it.
Zegras, 22 years old, is a 9th overall pick in 2019 (1st round) and he has accumulated 146 points in 199 career NHL games, including 53 goals.
Cole Caufield's best friend collected 65 points last season and seven points this season. (injuries)
