However, it appears that the cost two obtaining Zegras services maybe too much for Hughes to handle. The Ducks are asking for either Kaiden Guhle or David Reinbacher who have been drafted high by the Canadiens over the past couple of years.
At 23 years old and standing at six foot 185 lbs he would give the Canadiens a huge boost down the middle along with some cost certainty as he would enter his second of his three-year deal that was worth $17.2 million. A player of his talent holding the cap hit at 5.75 million per season is certainly a bargain considering what he brings to the table.
