All kinds of speculation that Zegras is a personality who wants to be in an American market. He may come here, because it would likely be better than the one he’s currently in, but he seems like a major flight risk to me. That, or you’re paying through the nose to keep him here and engaged. Big no thanks in my eyes.

I have never heard Zegras wants to only play in the US myself but I think people would assume so. I think if Conroy inquires about him you have to get permission to talk to his agent before any deal is made. His attitude comes off as very confident and cocky, I'm not sure that's a bad trait in a highly skilled player. I have always thought Zegras has #1 C talent in spades. I think he will pop once he gets out of Anaheim. So it comes down to what it would take to sign him long term and what the acquisition cost is. As for playing in Canada none of us actually know, maybe he would love being in a hockey crazed Canadian market. Some ego guys love that.
