Anaheim : Zegras
MTL : 2024 1st*, Mesar, Harris, 2025 2nd round pick

*Pick top-10 protected, reverts to 2025 pick if top-10 or higher.

Zegras' age fits MTL's rebuilding timeline and gets to play with his good buddy Caufield.

With Gauthier eventually joining the team and with Carlsson and MacTavish down the middle, it looks like Zegras might be on his way out . Anaheim gets more early round picks for their rebuild, a good forward prospect in Mesar and a decent young defenseman in Harris who can play both sides and can slot in their lineup instantly

A protected first as the main piece isn't getting Zegras.

Zegras is fancy, makes a really nice Michigan goal here and there, but I don't see him being worth all that. I'm sure lots will disagree with me, but he's not a great all around player. No thanks.

No way. Agree with previous post. Return for Zegras is too high. Mesar is a childhood buddy of Slavkosky’s in Slovakia, drafted in 1st round with him, + did great in WJHC so he’s not going anywhere. ZEGRAS IS ONE DIMENSION & sound like a prima donna. Hard pass.

DeBrincat got number 7, 39 and a 3rd. In this deal it would probably end up being Montreals 2025 1st (probably top 10), pick around 40, a recent 1st rounder.

@Ebsolutely, I don't think the habs end up bottom 10 next year. I see them selecting mid round, right outside of the playoffs. Their team is full of young promising players that will only get better with more games under their belt

I just watched them play the Oil and they played a good game I just don’t think they have the lineup to be that good next year. 4-12 I think is where they’ll finish. I think they can over achieve and just miss playoffs but it’s more likely they’ll finish top 12.

Zegras is potentially the guy with most controversy surrounding his value. Some say top 25-50 player with top 25 potential, others say bust and injury prone.
