For the Czech winger, the Sharks offer a world of opportunity -- only Anthony Duclair and Alexander Barabanov clearly are ahead of Zadina at wing on San Jose's depth chart right now – and he appears to have already forged a trust with head coach David Quinn....
"Liked the signing," Scout No. 1 texted San Jose Hockey Now. "Not sure why his development stalled so much, just hasn’t come along like Detroit had hoped."
"Seems like a good kid, injuries really hurt his development last year in a pivotal season," Scout No. 2 said....
I think he just didn’t want to be in the same situation where he had to jump over more players to gain a spot in top half of line-up," the coach offered.
As for his game? Well, there’s a reason why Zadina was on waivers.
"I always felt like Zadina was frustrating. Super-talented but too often would go missing in games. Effort is in and out," Scout No. 3 said. "It’s just that effort level and consistency."
As was posted at the Joe: "To whom much is given, much is expected"
Zackly, Tre. Yzerman has seen enough.
