Awwwwwwwwww! Good for ZAR!

This makes me really happy...mostly because it means he won't be on the Penguins roster next year but still, happy.

ZAR has genuinely been awesome for us in a checking line role. glad to see them bring him back.

Don't worry, you have Nieto in his place for 900k next year

Yup, I am good with the extension. Also just listened to the BobbyMac podcast where he interviewed ZAR, his demeanor sounds like he could bring a sense of calmness to the dressing room which can be good if the kids get too worked up.

zach action was a real valuable player for grand rapids last season , smart hustling player

ZAR has as many points as Nieto and Accari combined this year

He's a high-quality fourth liner with the kind of hustle we needed, and we're happy to have him.

Rabbi, is there a proper blessing for the ZAR?

Solid defensive guy with speed and when the roster has been somewhat healthy a combo of ZAR-Danforth-Olivier was solid

"May G-d bless and keep the ZAR... far away from the top line."

You know we'll hear this at the 2025 Draft, right?

"We have a trade to announce between the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Pittsburgh Penguins..."

"The Penguins have traded their 2026 7th to the Blue Jackets for their 2025 7th."

It will be exciting!
