Zegras is expected to be out for approximately six weeks after undergoing right knee surgery Thursday to repair a torn meniscus.
Zegras has four goals and 10 points in 24 appearances in 2024-25. He suffered the injury during a 4-1 loss to Vegas on Dec. 4. His exit from the lineup coincided with Brock McGinn returning from a lower-body injury. When Zegras eventually returns, Isac Lundestrom or Jansen Harkins might lose their spot in the lineup.

Rotowire
Zegras (lower body) will not return to Wednesday's game versus the Golden Knights.
Zegras was injured in the second period and ruled out for the game prior to the intermission. He got tangled up with William Karlsson when he sustained the injury.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Goal, assist in win
Rotowire
Zegras scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and logged two hits in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Kraken.
Zegras' point streak is up to four games (two goals, four assists). He and Alex Killorn helped out on each other's tallies in Wednesday's rematch win following a 3-2 loss to the Kraken on Monday. Zegras is up to four goals, 10 points, 43 shots on net, 15 hits, 15 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating across 21 appearances. Fantasy managers who were patient with him early in the campaign are reaping the rewards now, though in the Ducks' offense, his success could dry up at a moment's notice.

Rotowire
Zegras registered an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Sabres.
Zegras set up a Drew Helleson tally in the first period. With a goal and three helpers over his last four contests, Zegras appears to be breaking out of the slump that has plagued him for much of the first quarter of the campaign.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Tallies on power play
Rotowire
Zegras scored a power-play goal on two shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Friday's 6-4 win over the Red Wings.
Zegras snapped a five-game point drought with his second-period tally. The 23-year-old is off to an abysmal start this season with just four points through 16 contests despite routinely seeing top-six minutes. This was his first power-play point of the campaign, and he's added 29 shots on net, 13 blocked shots, 10 hits and a minus-6 rating. Not much has gone right for the Ducks on offense, but Zegras struggling out of the gate for the second year in a row is a significant concern.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Ends drough with assist
Rotowire
Zegras notched an assist, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Thursday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Penguins.
Zegras had gone six games without a point before he set up an Alex Killorn tally in the first period. The slump has cost Zegras his top-six role -- he's been under 15 minutes of ice time in each of the last two games while playing alongside Killorn and Cutter Gauthier on the third line. Zegras is off to another slow start in 2024-25 with three points, 21 shots on net, seven blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 10 appearances. While he still has talent, he is in real danger of getting lapped by younger prospects in the Ducks' system, which does nothing to squash trade rumors that have circled him in recent months.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Earns 100th career assist
Rotowire
Zegras registered an assist and five shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over Utah.
Zegras set up linemate Robby Fabbri's second-period tally, which tied the game at 2-2. Through three games, Zegras has a goal, an assist, nine shots on net and a plus-1 rating. His helper Wednesday was the 100th of his career, a milestone he reached in 214 regular-season appearances. Zegras looks poised to be a top-six fixture this year as he attempts to bounce back from a disappointing 2023-24 campaign.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Fills empty cage
Rotowire
Zegras scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Sharks.
Zegras helped secure the season-opening win for the Ducks with his tally at 18:25 of the third period. The forward started the game at right wing -- he's a left-handed shooter but was playing alongside fellow lefties Robby Fabbri and Mason McTavish at even strength. The Ducks have some flexibility with as many as four potential top-six centers, though Zegras' creativity may be better suited to a winger spot. He struggled with 15 points over 31 games in an injury-riddled 2023-24, but he's poised for a bounce-back year if he can stay healthy.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Delivers assist in win
Rotowire
Zegras notched an assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Zegras put together a strong finish with two goals and six helpers over his last eight games. The 23-year-old's injury-plagued fourth season saw him post 15 points, 73 shots on net, 30 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 31 appearances. He saw time at center and on the wing, so it's unclear where he might play to begin 2024-25, but he should be able to maintain a top-six role.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Buries goal Saturday
Rotowire
Zegras scored a goal on five shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Kings.
Zegras broke up David Rittich's shutout bid with a goal at 11:18 of the third period. With two goals and five assists over his last seven contests, Zegras has seemingly returned to form to close out 2023-24. The 23-year-old has 14 points, 72 shots on net, 30 PIM and a minus-2 rating through 30 appearances in an injury-riddled campaign, but his recent performance lends some optimism for 2024-25.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Adds helper in loss
Rotowire
Zegras notched an assist and three shots on goal in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Flames.
Zegras set up a Frank Vatrano tally in the third period. After an injury-plagued campaign, Zegras is showing off his talent with a goal and five assists over his last six contests to finish the year strong. The 23-year-old is at 13 points, 67 shots on net and a minus-2 rating through 29 outings overall, playing mainly in a top-six role.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Tallies in Tuesday's win
Rotowire
Zegras scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
The third-period goal was Zegras' first since he returned from a broken ankle. He's earned a goal and four assists over his last five contests after taking a while to get back up to speed. The 23-year-old center has five goals, 12 points, 64 shots on net, 30 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 28 outings this season. He should be safe in a top-six role to close out the year since Mason McTavish (knee) is unlikely to recover in time to play before the Ducks' final game April 18 versus the Golden Knights.

With four assists over his last four games, Zegras is getting comfortable again, though he hasn't scored in seven outings since returning from a broken ankle. The 23-year-old center is at 11 points, 62 shots on net, 30 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 27 appearances this season.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras: Provides helper in loss
Rotowire
Zegras notched an assist and three shots on goal in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Canucks.
This was Zegras' first point in four games since he returned from a a broken ankle. The 23-year-old has endured an injury-riddled campaign while earning just eight points with 56 shots on net, 30 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 24 appearances. Zegras should continue to see top-six minutes, but fantasy managers probably shouldn't expect much out of him in April.

Zegras suffered a broken ankle Jan. 9 versus Floirda and subsequently underwent surgery to repair the damage.
