    no thanks, who would want a 22 y/o with two 60+ points season, he has too much potential for the fans

  3. manwithoutcountry

    I’m not super keen on Zegras, but it would be the time to trade for him if they wanted him. His trade value is just about at rock bottom.

  4. thomas_bombadill

    Depends where our 1st round pick lands this year / who’s available. There’s no real other way for us to get him other than trading that pick

  5. slafyousillier

    If it involves the Winnipeg pick, cool

  6. The only way I see this working is a pre-planned draft day deal where our first rounder is in play and Hughes can trade out if the players he likes are gone by the time we pick.

    Feel like Button’s killing the rumor by saying this.

  8. for the right price, it would make so much sense

    at 20 he put up 61 points (on pace for 67), Suzuki put up 41 (on pace for 47) at the same age

    the top 6 would be looking like Suzuki, Slaf, Cole, Zegras, Dach, (FA/Trade/Draft), that would be amazing

  9. Habsfan_2000

    I’ve heard this rumour but he also just signed a three year contract in October.

  10. Button was the Calgary Flames GM who waived Martin St-Louis.

    For that, I’ll forever never trust his judgement, ever.

  11. Legitimate-Tell-6694

    I’m down. Ryder, Halak, and a 2nd.

  12. ScareCrow13-

    Like all teams they would want either Dach or Ghule involved so no.

    1st round pick + B prospect or something like that, yes.

  13. Kiiiriin

    you keep your pick and draft one of Berkly Catton or Zayne Parekh and then you end up having a better player than Zegras.

  14. kingkellam

    Craig said it, so now we are definitely not getting zegras. Better luck next time!

  15. GoldenHourShower

    I don’t want him unless he comes cheap. Would be funny to add yet another 2019 first rounder to the stable. Much rather have Boldy though

  16. TrustinJudoPMMA

    Why tho; Zegras would dilute a beauty concoction you guys are brewing

  17. jadenspan

    If they will take one of Gallagher or Armia back I would be happy 

  18. Extreme_Ebb4319

    CGY 1st round pick (2025) + Justin Barron

  19. Not super interested in Zegras. While he is flashy, can he produce without premier opportunities/minutes? Can he be a net positive player on a cup contending team? I don’t think so. Not a fan of his style, he is soft.

    Would love it but i have a hard time coming up with a proposal that the ducks would accept. They’re packed in terms of D prospect, our strongest assets. Our next two 1st round picks are maybe too good to trade, same with CGY’s. WPG’s not good enough…

  21. ViolinistMean199

    I’m not a habs fan but this would be an exciting trade. Zegras Caufield and Suzuki. I would watch some habs games then

  22. Independent-Second-1

    I have a hard on for Zegras to Montreal.

  23. DocGubernaculum

    I’m surprised by the shade being thrown at Zegras in this sub the last couple of week. Getting this player would be beyond amazing for our club for the right price.
    I don’t get people saying he is over rated. Last season if he was on our team he would have been nearly tied with Suzuki for the team lead in points (65 pts in 81 games). The year prior he had 61 pts in 75 games as a 20 year old. All this while playing with *checks notes* Sonny Milano.
    He is an elite offensive talent and if you can give up 2 late first rounder s and good prospect your absolutely do it.
    MB in his tenure always said that players like this do not become available, if we have a chance at one we should take it.

  24. lol collecting 2019 first rounds like they are trading cards. Let’s keep going maybe we can get kakkko for cheap

  25. A little off topic but if were willing to give up a 1st + for someone like Zegras we should consider prying a disgruntled David Jiricek from CBJ maybe instead. Hes a top 4 RD in the making and we could ship winnipegs pick + one of our LDs log jamming the left side to make room for a pretty solid talent on the right side. Would round off a top 4 D core nicely with Hutson and Reinbacher in the mix.

    Just IMO a really talented RD has a bit more value than Zegras. The offence hopefully comes with the emergence of slaf &more consistent health with dach and Newhook.
