Contract Termination: [DET] Red Wings terminate contract of F Filip Zadina

[TS Quint]

Why would Holland have the broken refrigerator he bought on clearance delivered to his new house in EDM? He moved across the country to leave that mistake behind.

We have seen him over pay to get Anthanasiou to the Oilers. Holland isnt all that sharp.

 

[WaW]

Ah yes. Until this morning Zadina was a terrible player who had no value and should be waived.

The moment he gets waived: "Yzerman wAsHeD bAd mOvE!!!!"

 

[Seider and Donuts]

Wasn't he the centre piece in a trade for Debrincat?

Kinda hard to drag your nuts on a proposal until you see what you actually got.

As it stands, it would appear Ottawa has a price and nobody's interested in paying it.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

I feel like someone would have thrown even a conditional 7th at Det for him. Honestly, kind of surprised he didn’t go the other way in the Yamamoto/Kostin deal.

Never mind, didn’t realize he was making 1.8 for two years.

They probably offered, but Edmonton wanted the cap clearing more than they wanted a project

Habs should claim him

He can't "fill their nets with pucks" if he plays for them

Just curious are habs still in rebuilding phase or are they looking to compete this upcoming season?

 

[Zrhutch]

Feel like this has Chicago written all over it.

 

[Ezekial]

You realize you probably never heard real information about that trade and just heard dumb shit some idiot who gets paid to write stuff on the internet thought up, right?

Stop stop. You're making me sad

 

[Seider and Donuts]

What prevents him from being effective in the NHL?

What worked in junior for him that doesn't now?

His complete inability to do the one thing he bragged that he was going to do.

 

[Detroit Knights]

Wings fans give some insight to what he does well at this stage?

When we find out, you'll be the first to know. I promise.

 

[Guffman]

Based on what they did this offseason, they are not competing.

I wouldn’t be surprised for Montreal to pick up another former round 1 disappointing castoff.

You underestimate the defensive prowess of Zadina

 

[Seider and Donuts]

He's a very well rounded player, honestly.

The problem is he can't score for shit, so he's essentially just out there to play somewhat responsible hockey while the guys who actually can score get a breather.

So he'd be an overpaid 3rd liner to use in a defensive assignment?

 

[WaW]

I'd claim him 100%.

Arizona should be all over this.

This doesn't surprise me as it's in line with your other terrible hot takes.

Zadina is a terrible player. The upside is an illusion, he's been given plenty of opportunities up and down the lineup and on the PP. He sucks.

 

[Seider and Donuts]

So he'd be an overpaid 3rd liner to use in a defensive assignment?

At that production? 4th.

I really don't know that all is lost with the guy. But whatever he aint getting, he probably aint getting here.

It's a hard one to give up on because you don't want to look back in 5 years and say "Oh shit he's a 25-25 guy that plays really responsible hockey, and we waived him," but as he stands right now, there's been zero signs of that.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Wasn't he the centre piece in a trade for Debrincat?

Not by anyone who knew anything about Zadina.

That's the ol' hfboards "will you give us a good player in return we'll give you are garbage and some picks?"

 

[ponder719]

I'll be stunned if he makes it to Philadelphia. I'll be annoyed if he makes it past us. He's probably not going to pan out, but we should absolutely be trying.

 

[MichaelFarrell]

I don’t think I’d claim him. He’s done absolutely nothing to prove he can be a productive player.

He needs to go back to Europe and work on his game. I’ve never been impressed with him. He was waived because he has absolutely no value.

 

[Seider and Donuts]

If he's the sole bust of our Top 10 picks since 2017, I'll be happy.

 

[Petes2424]

He can’t create space in traffic. You can’t score much in the NHL if you can’t do that. It’s why tons of skilled players bust but light up other leagues. There is no space in the NHL.

Was thinking more long term ceiling at this point

Who knows, honestly. Like I said, he's good at everything except the one thing he said he'd do, which he sucks at.
