This is the Jeff Merrick Show on the Sportsnet Radio Network.

And that music tells you.

It's time for Greg Wyshinsky from ESPN and The Drop, most recently featuring John Butchagros of ESPN,

where he claims Trevor Zegris will be the next Pavel Datsuk.

What? Greg Wichenski?

What?

Is he implying that he's going to become a Red Wing?

If everyone has been looking for a Greg Wyshinsky reaction meme in their lives,

my face when John Bucigras said that Trevor Zegris is the next Pavel Datsuk probably would suffice. I mean, first of all, he did say that the idea that Zegris on the Red Wings would be a very interesting proposition. I agree with it. I think that he, I think given what they need up front, given it his age and given where their build is right now, like he'd be an interesting fit there. I mean, and honestly, like, obviously, like, there is a little bit of history with Rebeacon.

Eiserman. build is right now. Like he'd be an interesting fit there. I mean, and honestly like, obviously like there is a little bit of history with

Rubeke and Eiserman.

Every time there's a transaction of the NHL, you look for those connections.

So perhaps, perhaps, perhaps.

But as far as like the transference of skill set,

um, I think we're all still trying to figure out if

this kid can play defense.

Like, I know he's got the hands.

I know he's got the skills.

I know there are some comparable attributes to Zegress's game to that, which made

Dadsook a, you know, Hall of Fame player, in my estimation at least.

Yeah.

But I don't think we've quite seen him play defense yet in the league.
