In the last few hours, major information was reported by the renowned Pierre LeBrun, stating that four or five teams would be in the running for Trevor Zegras.

In fact, the informant mentions that these teams directly contacted the Anaheim Ducks for the services of the young star player.

Among them, LeBrun also confirmed that the Canadiens were part of the teams that have communicated with the Californian organization.

"And I can tell you that, among the 4 teams that called the Ducks for a trade involving Trevor Zegras, there are the Montreal Canadiens." - Pierre LeBrun

"Other than the Montreal Canadiens, one of these five interested teams (according to several reliable sources), was the Philadelphia Flyers.

According to what has just been reported by the Fourth Period, the Flyers have withdrawn from the Trevor Zegras sweepstales." - via Habs et LNH

The fewer teams interested in him, the less demand there is, so Anaheim has less leverage to increase the bidding.

It will be interesting to follow this file over the coming months, especially as the draft approaches. It's usually at that time that major transactions like this one are concluded.

22 years old, Cole Caufield's good friend has accumulated 146 points in 199 career games. He could become a significant addition to the Canadiens' top-6.
