According to a source, Trevor Zegras' tenure with the Anaheim Ducks may be coming to an end and the team may make a big move this summer.

Frank Seravalli recently talked about Trevor Zegras, a forward with the Anaheim Ducks, and his future with the team on the DFO Rundown podcast. Seravalli said that one of Zegras' many "pain points" in Anaheim has been the trading of his best friend Jamie Drysdale to Philadelphia.
Zegras was among the players that were coerced into training in Florida, an incident for which the Ducks were fined $50,000. He has also experienced injury problems, so it appears that starting again somewhere new would be beneficial for everyone.
Additionally, Seravalli disclosed that, in his opinion, the Ducks aren't certain Trevor Zegras can develop his game any further.
"There's been a lot of pain points for Trevor Zegras so far on his end. He was injured last year, he was ground down on the RFA negotiations, his best friend was traded. He was pressured to, was one of the players that was pressured to work out in Florida under team control, which ultimately earned the Ducks a $50,000 fine." Seravalli said.

He added, "Then on the other end, we've heard you mention, not glowing, like Pat Verbeek, I don't think he's gonna say it publicly, I think internally, the talk has been that they have real reservations as to whether or not he can add additional dimensions to his game. Is he a talented, creative, offensive force? Yes. Are there other things that he needs to add to his game? Yes. And when you have, you know, a bunch of young, burgeoning prospects, the need to try and force square peg into round hole, if that's how you view him, isn't really there."

Zegras is no stranger to trade rumors; in fact, this past season, his name surfaced in a number of lists from multiple outlets prior of the deadline. Zegras eventually stayed with the Anaheim Ducks past the cutoff point, but general manager Pat Verbeek may revisit the draft and this summer to determine if a trade would benefit his team in the long run.
