The bounce on the shot may have been a fortunate one, but I wouldn't call this assist "lucky," he generated this scoring chance with a beauty of a pass.
It was a nifty little pass that went through a couple of defenders and was right where it needed to be. Still a lucky point, though, because that puck should not have gone in the net. Fabbri did not even take a shot. He was moving the puck toward the blue line when it bounced off Pionk.
It's a lucky goal, but you can't discredit Zadina's execution of the pass that led to it. The quality of his play isn't determined by the result on the score sheet or the amount of luck that gets it there, yet that's how myopic your analysis appears to be.
It is simple logic. If the puck should not have gone in the net, then any point from it is lucky.
Welp, I guess the lucky ones make up for when a guy has a surefire goal and shoots it wide or back into the goalie.It was a nifty little pass that went through a couple of defenders and was right where it needed to be.

Just that one idiot.Some Oiler fan thinks we would trade Zadina 1 to 1 for Puljujarvi! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

There's a reason those players are in Grand Rapids while Helm and Glendening are in Detroit. Just because someones a top six forward in the AHL doesn't mean they have the skills of someone in the show. It all really comes down to the match up, Zadina's playing easier competition in GR so his stats might look better.Exactly why I would rather him playing top line minutes with decent teammates in Grand Rapids than Blashill putting him on a line with Glendening and Helm
He still hasn't scored a goal 5 on 5 yet in nearly 20 games. Still expecting a lot more from this guy. Last game was a start in the right direction.
I don't think Zadina skates fast enough to be a regular NHL player. He's constantly chasing the play.
Sucks he’s strapped to that second line. Feel like it’s holding him back of any (more) potential he can show this year. At least he’s seeing PP1 time now.
Been impressed that he’s producing with what he’s playing with.
Out of the draft options who would y’all like to see most with Zadina
