The Anaheim Ducks and Montreal Canadiens reportedly had a trade in place at Entry Draft in Las Vegas in June that involved Trevor Zegras.

Montreal has been one of a handful of teams that have been linked with Anaheim Ducks forward Trevor Zegras as they continue to search for offensive help and a recent report suggests that the two teams came close on a deal at the end of June.

It was revealed on Tuesday that the Canadiens and Ducks had a deal in place that would have seen Trevor Zegras and a second round pick head to Montreal, while Anaheim would've received defenceman Logan Mailloux and a first round pick.

The deal reportedly failed to go through once the Canadiens got to their second pick of the first round and their target - Michael Hage, was still on the board.

"According to Marco Normandin, the Montreal Canadiens and Anaheim Ducks had a trade lined up that would have sent Zegras and a 2nd round draft pick to Montreal for a package including the 1st round pick they eventually used to select Michael Hage. Apparently, the trade was denied in the final moments leading to the pick, as it's fair to assume Montreal was counting on Hage being available, which may have been the deciding factor in the deal." Keiran Bray of Hockey Talk Daily said.

Zegras, 23, was limited to just 31 games during the 2023-24 season due to injuries, registering 15 points (six goals, nine assists), 30 penalty minutes and was a minus-one.

The Bedford, New York native still remains a member of the Anaheim Ducks as of today, but it'll be interesting to see if any teams around the NHL up the ante in trade talks before training camps open in the middle of September.
