Trevor Zegras: our analysis

2025-26 season: 81 GP, 26 G, 41 A, 67 PTS, 0 +/-, 18:43 TOI. WAR 2.1 (64th of 615) · PAL 56, around average.

In 2025-26, Trevor Zegras, 25, posts a PAL Rating of 56 out of 100 (around average), and his WAR of 2.1 ranks 64th among 615 regulars, in the top quarter.

His strengths: power play (88, among the best in the league), offense (83, well above average) and shooting (77, well above average). On the other hand, defense (12, among the weakest in the league) and penalty kill (15, among the weakest in the league) hold him back.

Breaking down his WAR (goals above average), his biggest contribution: EV offense (+4.7); his biggest cost: EV defense (-2.2).

A clear step forward: his PAL went from 4 in 2024-25 to 56; his WAR went from 0.2 to 2.1.

Contract-wise, his Value score of 39 (poor return) weighs his output against what he costs: 50 is what that salary should buy.

Trevor Zegras's story

Born in Bedford, New York, Trevor Zegras learned to skate very young and came up through Tier 1 youth programs before moving on to Avon Old Farms and the USA Hockey National Team Development Program, where he sharpened playmaking instincts alongside peers such as Spencer Knight and Jack Hughes.

Strong production in the USHL with the USNTDP — 59 points in 2017–18 followed by 87 points in 2018–19 — led to a first-round selection, ninth overall, by the Anaheim Ducks at the 2019 NHL Entry Draft. He honoured his college commitment and played the 2019–20 season at Boston University, scoring 36 points in 33 games and earning postseason recognition in Hockey East.

Zegras turned pro after signing an entry-level contract with Anaheim on 27 March 2020 and spent time with the San Diego Gulls in the AHL before making his NHL debut on 22 February 2021. He scored his first NHL goal on 18 March 2021 and, after a period of development that included a position change to center, established himself in the Ducks' lineup. His first full NHL season produced 23 goals and 38 assists and put him among the finalists for the Calder Trophy.

He followed with a 65-point campaign that led the club offensively and finished tied for the team lead in goals. Injuries interrupted the 2023–24 season after a new three-year deal was signed, but he returned to action late in the year. On 23 June 2025 he was traded to the Philadelphia Flyers in a deal that included Ryan Poehling and draft picks; the Flyers later extended him to a four-year contract in July 2026.

At the international level, Zegras starred for the United States at the 2021 World Junior Championship, leading the tournament in scoring with 18 points (seven goals, 11 assists) and being named MVP as the U.S. took gold. On the ice he is defined by creativity and vision: a natural passer who manufactures chances, adapts to playing center, and often dictates the flow of his team's attack.
