A huge deal involving one of the game’s bright young stars.



According to Daily Faceoff insider Frank Seravalli, the <a href="https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/teams/anaheim-ducks/line-combinations">Anaheim Ducks</a> have agreed to a deal to trade forward Trevor Zegras to the <a href="https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/teams/philadelphia-flyers/line-combinations">Philadelphia Flyers</a>.



In return, the Ducks are receiving Ryan Poehling, a second-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft, as well as a 2026 fourth-rounder.

The 2025 pick originally belonged to the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Flyers acquired the pick in the deal that sent <a href="https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/grading-the-ivan-provorov-trade-blue-jackets-get-serious-flyers-scorch-the-earth-kings-lighten-wallet">Ivan Provorov from Philly to Columbus</a>. The 2026 pick belonged to Philadelphia.



Zegras is coming off a pretty rough 2024-25 season. Following a&nbsp;month-long absence after undergoing knee surgery&nbsp;in December,&nbsp;a three-game suspension&nbsp;in February further prolonged Zegras’ absence from the lineup. He ended up appearing in just 57 games, scoring 12 goals and 20 assists for 32 points. <div class="injected-ad injected-video" data-nn-ad-tech-injection-count="0" data-nn-ad-tech-max-gap="130" data-nn-ad-tech-current-gap="151"></div>



This came after an injury-riddled 2023-24 campaign where the former ninth-overall pick was limited to 31 games, posting just six goals and nine assists for 15 points. It’s a far cry from when Zegras posted back-to-back 60-point seasons, briefly putting him on a path to being one of the game’s best players, as well as helping progress the Ducks’ ongoing rebuild.



Zegras has one more season remaining on his three-year contract, which he signed in October 2023. It carries an AAV of $5.75 million.



Poehling had been with the Flyers since signing with the team as a free agent in July 2023. The former St. Cloud State star had a couple of solid seasons with the Flyers, posting 28 points in the 2023-24 season that saw Philadelphia narrowly miss the playoffs. This past season, despite missing time <a href="https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/philadelphia-flyers-place-ryan-poehling-injured-reserve-rodrigo-abols-recalled">due to multiple injuries</a>, the 26-year-old set career highs in goals (12), assists (19) and points (31) in 68 games.<div class="injected-ad" data-nn-ad-tech-injection-count="1" data-nn-ad-tech-max-gap="130" data-nn-ad-tech-current-gap="157"></div>



Like Zegras, Poehling has one more year on his contract, which has a cap hit of $1.9 million.
