The availability of Trevor Zegras from the Anaheim Ducks, particularly following the addition of Cutter Gauthier to their organization, has sparked numerous trade rumors, with many speculating a potential move to Montreal.
Darren Dreger, a well-known insider from TSN, recently made a statement that has stirred up quite a bit of discussion.
This statement, coming from a highly connected individual in the league, raises the possibility of Joel Armia being part of a significant trade to bring Zegras to Montreal. Such a move would not only bring a top-6 player to Montreal but also potentially clear Armia's substantial $3.4 million contract.
Acquiring a young talent like Zegras would likely come at a high cost. It's doubtful that Kent Hughes would be willing to include a promising young defenseman like Kaiden Guhle, Lane Hutson, David Reinbacher, or Logan Mailloux in the deal.
