Waived: Michael Del Zotto

[57special]

Stats lie. He's not very good offensively or defensively.

He's not the Sens worst defenseman but DJ doesn't like him because he's not 6'5 and doesn't cross check enough.

In league that has made a point of calling cross checking this year, ok?

Have they really cracked down on cross checking?

Lol ,thats the joke ...We suck man

 

[Jee]

honestly thought he was not in the league anymore, let alone making 2M$ a year...

 

[Emerica]

Last week Sens fans were trying to get Debrusk for this guy

Got any receipts?

Holy shit I had no idea Del Zotto was making 4 million over 2 years. He’s like a #7.

He was our big offseason acquisition

rob Blake is going to claim and then waive Durzi

Isn’t Durzi waiver exempt?

Durzi is waiver exempt, he can be directly sent to AHL without waivers.

Del Zotto is a LD but can play the right side, but at his salary I don’t believe Blake would claim Del Zotto, plus DZ has been very poor defensively not what LA should be looking for.

rob Blake will find a way to lose him for nothing

When you think you pulled a 'big-brained' moved by signing a guy for top-6 dollars and expect him to be a top-4 guy, but in reality he's a 7th at best.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

If he clears I'd love for Dubas to acquire him and stick him in AHL because depth is always good

 

[Stuzchuk]

2 weeks prior to UFA, OTT needed a middle 6 RW, a middle C an a #4 RHD...

they traded a RW (Dadonov) for a LHD, signed a LHD (who they are currently waiving) and acquired a LW/RW the off season... talk about knowing where the priorities are Dorion /Melnyk

 

[kilowatt]

Del Zotto looked absolutely brutal in both of Ottawa's games against LA this year. So brutal that I kept noticing how out of position he was, and how good he made the anemic Kings look. I know our defensive depth is a bit of an issue, but I want no part of him in LA.

f*** you

you're right but f*** you

He broke out his rookie year the same year torts was hired, looked electric and almost got traded for stamkos (very interesting story actually, Sather and bolts GM agreed to it at the time but the owner vetod... damn), after that year he lived in chateau bow wow until he was moved for Klein in 2014.

There were stretches his first couple years where he looked like he was going to become a dominant defenseman. One of those players where he'd go through 10-game stretches where you were like "wow this guy is gonna be an all star" and just nothing ever came together for him.
