Trevor Zegras knows how to keep things interesting.
The Anaheim Ducks star made national headlines last year with his alley-oop assist on Sonny Milano, and has delivered many other viral moments with his masterful puck handling.
His skills landed him on the cover of NHL 2K23. On Wednesday night, he lost the handle of his cane, so he literally took matters into his own hands.

Zegras’ stick broke while fighting for a puck with Joel Kiviranta of the Dallas Stars. Behind his own net, Zegras needed a stick to play defense. So, he stole Kiviranta’s from his hands.
«My club broke and I pinned it against the glass. I thought, ‘You know what? I’m going to steal his club,'» he said after the game.
However, there is only one problem with that. It’s against the rules. But Zegras had no idea.
«Everybody knew it was a penalty except me I guess,» added Zegras.
The 21-year-old was handed a two-minute penalty for an illegal stick.
«I tried to claim that I found it on the ice, that nobody was buying it,» he admitted.
However, the penalty did not hurt the Ducks. They earned a 2-0 victory at the Honda Center in Southern California.
