Player Discussion Trevor Zegras : Part III

[Ducks]

This team is always better with Z in the lineup. He really has the ability to make everyone around him better.

 

[Doothpick]

Missed Z's return to the line-up, so happy to hear he looks like himself. I think Zegras really puts some smiles on the bench as well, so also much needed exuberance.

3 points in 3 games since coming back. Gotta wonder if he’ll just end up being one of those players who is a slow starter offensively. Two seasons in a row now where he starts out slow production wise (despite playing well), gets hurt, and then comes back and starts producing

He looks better. I think the time off gave him a reset and now he's playing about 100% like the Zegras we know he can be.

Was at the game and agree he makes everyone around him better

That being said he had an opportunity to michigan and didnt take it. I would love to see one live

Firmly in the do not trade camp. It’s a weird phenomenon, but dynamic Z when he’s dialed in rubs off on everyone else, almost forcing everyone else to raise their level of play. They look so much better offensively top to bottom when he’s in the lineup

Do not Trade Z or McTavish unless they really request it.

It’s amazing how the team comes alive offensively when Zegras is in the line up, has even made Carlsson better as well these last couple of games. Will hopefully get him going. Got robbed of a few points last night, both of them did. Z could have easily had a 4 point night with better puck luck.

If Verbeek trades him he should be fired on the spot. Not playing anymore with those rumors.

Keep chugging along dude.

First 15 games: 3 points.
Last 12 games: 10 points.

I think a lot of it has to do with the exuberance @Doothpick stated. He just makes the game feel more fun and loose and I think it rubs off on the team. That type of behavior is needed when you have a hardass like Cronin behind the bench. It was always the same with Getzy and Teemu, they just made the game feel more fun and I think it was a big part of what made the teams they were successful on successful. As they both got older they got more sour, likely due to teams not being as good but they lost that exuberance.

He looks great! Could have even more points in those first 2 games. A much needed spark and hope he destroys what’s left of the season
