NHL Trade Rumors: Trevor Zegras linked to struggling San Jose Sharks
Amid a challenging season for the San Jose Sharks, hockey analyst Eric Duhatschek ignited trade rumors linking the talented forward Trevor Zegras to the struggling team. With the Sharks seeking a boost in performance, Duhatschek identifies Zegras as a potential solution to their woes.
Anaheim Ducks forward Trevor Zegras has exhibited both offensive prowess and a charismatic personality throughout his four-year career. This season, he has contributed four goals and seven points in 20 games, showcasing his ability to be a game-changer on the ice.
The Sharks, facing a downturn in their performance and a slump in market appeal, see Zegras as a potential box-office attraction that could revitalize their campaign.
The uncertainty surrounding Zegras's future in Anaheim has intensified following the trade of his friend and teammate Jamie Drysdale. Despite encountering challenges such as injuries and defensive concerns, the 22-year-old forward's promise during his rookie season has not gone unnoticed. The Ducks may consider reshaping their young core, making Zegras a possible trade candidate.
As a former first-round pick by the Ducks in the 2019 NHL entry draft, Trevor Zegras brings both skill and potential to any team. With the Sharks in search of a turnaround, the speculated trade could provide Zegras with a new opportunity and offer the Ducks a chance to redefine their roster dynamics.
Trevor Zegras faces 6-8 weeks out with broken ankle, surgery ahead
Trevor Zegras faces a setback as he will be sidelined for six to eight weeks due to a broken left ankle, the team announced on Thursday. The 22-year-old sustained the injury during a recent game against the Nashville Predators, sliding feet-first into the side boards after his skates caught the stick of Nashville forward Juuso Parssinen. Zegras, who missed 20 games earlier in the season due to a lower-body injury, will undergo surgery in the coming days.
The Ducks, grappling with a challenging season and a string of injuries, are without defenseman Pavel Mintyukov for six weeks after he separated his shoulder in the same game. Mintyukov, the No. 10 pick in the 2022 NHL draft, played a significant role as a rookie defenseman for the team.
Despite the setbacks, Ducks coach Greg Cronin emphasized the team's need to generate offense creatively. With key players sidelined, including Zegras and Mintyukov, the Ducks face a tough phase in the Pacific Division. Currently sitting in seventh place with a record of 14-26-1, they strive to navigate the season in a highly competitive Pacific Division.
