Strickland Reveals Major News Regarding Zegras' Future in Anaheim
On the Cam & Strick Podcast, Andy Strickland went into some details on what he thinks is the hold-up for Anaheim signing Trevor Zegras. Recent rumours have come out that detail a potential rocky relationship between Zegras and Ducks' Management.

This would explain the rumours that Zegras and Management are not on the same page with regard to a contract extension. Reports have detailed that Anaheim has offered a meagre $3-4 million AAV for Zegras' next contract.
Zegras Set to Be a Free Agent After Season and Could Bring in A Lot More
Strickland believes that Zegras is worth a lot more on the free market, citing his previous two years putting up 60 points, and his stature in the NHL as a franchise player.
If I am Trevor Zegras and all of a sudden the NHL has put me on this pedestal, they invite me out to the All-Star Game, they have me participate in the skills competition, I am one of the most popular names in the league, kids all over the league are wearing my jersey everywhere, why would I settle and take less than what I think I am worth, and what other players are getting. Trade me.
We will see whether or not the Ducks can get a deal done with Zegras before he becomes a free agent. However, if it is true that Zegras isn't in the Ducks' long-term plans, we could see a blockbuster trade happen this year for the forward.
