Description

If Zegras is available I think habs should pursue him. He's far from perfect but Marty might be able to get more out of him. They need offense. Not sure what the package ultimately would look like but I believe MTL has the trade assets to do it if they want him.

Long term defence vision:
Hutson - Reinbacher
Guhle - Konyushkov / Kovacevic / Struble / UFA
Xhekaj - Mailloux
Engstrom / Harris / Kovacevic / Struble

Roy will be integrated into the top 9 as well.

Additional Details:

I do believe there is merit to the Zegras trade rumors. The fact that Anaheim couldn't come to an agreement with him on an 8 year deal when they have plenty of cap space tells me they are not committed to him long term. His most recent injury may be another reason the Ducks look to trade him as well.

ANA

Barron, Justin [RFA Rights]
Ylönen, Jesse [RFA Rights]
2024 2nd round pick (COL)
2025 1st round pick (CGY)

Additional Details:

The conditions on the CGY pick are confusing, but Anaheim gets a RHD with top 4 upside and a 1st round pick.

Net trade is Zegras, Drysdale for Gauthier, Barron, 1st Round Pick.

Out of curiosity I am wondering why you think Zegras' injury has an impact on whether Anaheim trades him?

Exactly and why would a team trade for him right now while he is out 6-8 weeks??

Not a single thing makes sense

People has to stop trading Barron, in long term, I see him play with Guhle on the first pair. Barron is very talented and for his young age, he proves that he will be better than Konyushkov, Mailloux, Harris, Kovacevic, and Xhekaj.

Probably not enough for Zegras but if habs can somehow get him without giving up Reinbacher, Hutson, Guhle or our 1st this year I’d seriaouly consider it. Imagine with our first, we also get Catton,Eiserman, Lindstrom with Zegras….that will be a lot of skill which we desperately need

CGY 1st will have to be in.
Harris OR Struble will have to be in
I assume they would want Roy but is try to replace with Farrell or even Mesar.
Maybe an additional 2nd round pick too

I think including Anderson is whishful thinking unless Anaheim somehow wants him.

So CGY 1st
Mesar
Struble or Harris

That would be my best offer for Zegras

Zegras and Verbeek already went through a contract dispute and insiders have confirmed his name is out there, so the Ducks were already not sold on Zegras long term.

Worst case scenario has happened Zegras is struggling and dealing with injuries. I'm not saying this leads to him being traded, but if Anaheim was already considering trading him and a good offer comes along I think they'd pull the trigger instead of this dragging out hoping Zegras bounces back and has better luck health wise next season.

A Zegras trade wouldn't happen until the offseason, never said this happens right now, this is a 2024-25 lineup.
