Trevor Zegras has been an absolute revelation since the trade, injecting the skill and creativity Philly desperately needed up front. As of October 29, 2025, after the Flyers’ latest game against the Pittsburgh Penguins, he’s racked up nine points (2 goals, 7 assists) in nine games, putting him tied for the team lead with Sean Couturier.
Zegras’s point totals include a monster three-point night (two goals, one assist) plus a shootout winner in their 4-3 comeback win over the New York Islanders on October 25, which snapped New York’s streak and boosted Philly to 4-3-1.
Believe it or not, Zegras is on a five-game point streak now, and early chemistry with linemates like Matvei Michkov and Christian Dvorak has been electric—think no-look passes and highlight-reel setups.
The low-risk trade in June (Ryan Poehling, a 2025 second-rounder, and a 2026 fourth) is already looking like a steal for Briere, especially with Zegras thriving under Tocchet and eyeing a long-term extension. If he keeps this pace, he’s on track for 80+ points, which would eclipse his Ducks career high. What’s got you most excited about his fit in Philly?
