Transaction: The Rangers looking to make blockbuster trade for Ducks superstar
The New York Rangers have shown serious interest in acquiring Anaheim Ducks superstar.
According to a recent report from NHL insider David Pagnotta of the Fourth Period, The New York Rangers are among the 8 teams who have expressed «serious interest» in making a trade a for Anaheim Ducks star Trevor Zegras.
Despite coming off a disappointing season after facing serious injuries, Zegras was still able to manage 6 goals and 9 assists for a total of 15 points in 31 games, however prior to that he was coming off back-to-back 60 points seasons.
David Pagnotta also stated that Ducks general manager Pat Verbeek has set a «very high price» for the 23-year old, and clearly that hasn't stopped teams from showing interest.
The 8 teams that have shown interest in Trevor Zegras:
New York Rangers
Montreal Canadiens
Ottawa Senators
Philadelphia Flyers
Nashville Predators
Calgary Flames
Buffalo Sabres
Apparently to those close to Zegras, he is open to a change of scenery but it also completely comfortable starting the 2024-25 season in Anaheim.
However, Pat Verbeek is play hardball with rival teams and isn't interested in dealing his young star for a bunch of draft picks or prospects, instead he is looking for a player that has already proven himself and can step right into the Ducks lineup.
