New York Rangers trade target Trevor Zegras has officially been suspended due to a judgment by George Parros and the Department of Player Safety. Will this affect his trade value?
The NHL Department of Player Safety has suspended winger Trevor Zegras for three games.
The New York Rangers trade target Trevor Zegras decided to commit a crime on the ice and interfere with Michael Rasmussen with a high hit on Rasmussen.
He'd fall to the ice unable to get up from the ice due to the pain from the injury suffered.
The hit would occur in the neutral zone as Zegras would hit him in the head.
The incident would occur with 2:41 remaining in the second period, and no penalty was originally called.
The Anaheim Ducks would lose to the Todd McLellan-led Detroit Red Wings 5-4.
According to McLellan, Rasmussen would be considered day-to-day after the hit.
It was speculated that the New York Rangers would be interested in trading for Zegras back in January.
Now, that the team has made a move for JT Miller, could the prospect of making a move for Zegras diminish?
He's had a relatively lackluster season in the NHL this year, scoring only 16 points (7 G, 9 A) in 34 games with the Ducks.
Here's an idea of what a trade could look like for Zegras.
If the cost was something like Filip Chytil, the 2024 1st round pick of the Rangers, and someone like Drew Fortescue, it may give the Ducks a reason to part with the superstar center.
Would you press send on that trade?
